Touch Me Through Time: Love, Secrets and Echoes of the Past Romance
A forbidden love hidden in art. A rivalry that becomes desire. A truth that defies time itself.
If you love slow-burn romance, enemies-to-lovers tension, time-crossed love stories, and historical mystery, Touch Me Through Love, Secrets and Echoes of the Past Romance will steal your heart and keep you turning pages late into the night.
When Sophie, a fiercely determined documentarian, takes on the story of Evelyn, a reclusive artist whose work drips with passion and secrets, she never expects her partner in uncovering the truth to be James—a brilliant, infuriating art historian who sees the world (and her) through sharp, skeptical eyes.
Together, they dig into Evelyn’s past—faded letters, forbidden portraits, and a love affair that defied the rules of its time. From shadowed galleries in Milan to windswept coastal towns, their search unearths more than history. It exposes buried desires, dangerous truths, and a connection that grows hotter with every discovery.
But some secrets don’t want to be found.
As Sophie and James piece together the puzzle, the lines blur between past and present, rivalry and romance, truth and heartache. The closer they get to Evelyn’s story, the closer they come to confronting their own fears, their own scars—and the possibility of a love neither planned to find.
Perfect for readers who
Enemies-to-lovers romance with emotional depth
Historical love stories with modern twists
Art, passion, and forbidden relationships
Mystery woven with heartbreak and redemption
Slow burn tension that explodes into love
Touch Me Through Time is a sweeping romance about love’s power to defy time, heal wounds, and rewrite destiny.
One artist’s secret. Two hearts at risk. A story that refuses to be silenced.

Touch Me Through Time: Love, Secrets and Echoes of the Past Romance
By David Webb
Publisher: Independently Published
Published: August 8, 2025
ASIN: B0FLW1ZLG3
Page Count: 93
Star Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
What Did I Just Walk Into?
Apparently, a romance novel that decided history, forbidden love, and snarky enemies-to-lovers banter all needed to sit at the same table—and shocker, it works. Think of it as Indiana Jones meets Pride and Prejudice, except with more longing looks over dusty love letters and less running from boulders. Sophie is a documentary filmmaker who’s stubborn enough to chew glass before admitting she likes James, the arrogant art historian forced to work with her. Together, they dig into the tragic love story of Evelyn, a long-dead artist, and in the process—oops—they start writing their own.
Here’s What Slapped:
The art history backdrop gives the romance actual substance. Finally, a love story that doesn’t just happen in coffee shops.
James and Sophie’s banter? Pure foreplay disguised as academic arguing. You can practically hear the sexual tension vibrating off the page.
Evelyn’s forbidden romance woven through the plot adds layers it’s like two romances for the price of one.
The travelogue vibes of galleries in Milan, coastal town mystery, and shadowy archives. Basically this book doubles as a passport stamp collection.
The slow burn tension that actually pays off. You earn every kiss, and that’s rare these days.
What Could’ve Been Better:
Honestly? With only 93 pages, I just wanted more. The story teases at sweeping epic energy, but it’s over before you’ve unpacked your suitcase. This deserved at least 200 pages of delicious drama and longing stares.
Perfect for Readers Who Love:
Enemies-to-lovers that actually feel earned
Romance tangled up in art, secrets, and history
Stories where past and present mirror each other like a perfectly staged gallery wall
Short, bingeable reads with actual emotional payoff
Vibe Check:
It’s like wandering into an art exhibit where half the paintings are forbidden love letters and the other half are portraits staring directly into your soul—only to realize the curators are falling in love behind your back.
