Scattered Through Time
Time Travel series

She was born a century too early to be taken seriously.
He’s built his life around what he can measure and prove.
Time has crossed their paths with the chance to alter both her past and their future.

She was born into a world that refuses her ambition.
He’s offered the chance to do achieve something monumental in science.
Both are about to discover that the course of a life can change in an instant.

In 1903 Montreal, Elie Rutherford sees only one future awaiting her: marriage, respectability, and an end to her education. As the daughter of renowned physicist Ernest Rutherford, she can’t imagine anything less than becoming a scientist. If she can’t find another path, she may have to surrender the future she’s always dreamed of, settling for a suitor that, on paper, seems to fit everyone else’s expectations for her.

A century later, William Hertz is on track to become a mechanical engineer when an unexpected opportunity draws him toward theoretical physics instead. Then an even greater possibility appears: the chance to contribute to a groundbreaking astrophysics observatory. But figuring out physics is the easy part; the rest of his life refuses to follow equations.

Before the time-traveling events of Scattered, Elie and William each stand at a crossroads, unaware that the choices they make will one day echo across a century… and bring their lives together in the most unexpected way.

We too often realize what we want only after it’s gone.

In 1906 Montreal, Elie Rutherford refuses to accept the future laid out for her—marriage, obedience, and a life far from the laboratory she longs to enter. As the daughter of renowned physicist Ernest Rutherford, she has the mind for discovery—but not the freedom to use it. Defying expectations could cost her everything.

A hundred years later, William Hertz is a gifted but guarded graduate student at McGill, hiding from the past and keeping the world at a careful distance. Physics is predictable. People are not.

Until a failed experiment tears a hole through time.

Thrown into 2006, Elie finds herself stranded in a world she barely understands—and in the path of a man who challenges everything she thinks she understands about modern people, and herself. As their connection deepens, so does the urgency of her situation: the experiment that brought her to the future may be the only way back.

But recreating it comes with consequences neither of them can fully grasp, because changing time isn’t just dangerous—it’s irreversible.

And the closer Elie and William grow, the more impossible her choice becomes: return to the life she fought to escape… or risk everything for a future that was never meant to be hers.

Only the metallic whiff of ionized air marks the spot of a vanished man.

Elie Rutherford chose the twenty-first century and the freedom to become the physicist she could never have been in 1907 Montreal. Her time-traveling days are in the past, along with, reluctantly, her family.

But leaving behind her famous father, Ernest Rutherford, to live in the future—even with his blessing—has not been easy. Elie struggles to keep pace in her new life that assumes a lifetime of knowledge she has only just begun to acquire.

William Hertz, who has been by her side since she appeared in his time, is determined to help her succeed despite an uncertain future of his own. Yet the more Elie depends on him, the more she privately fears she may never prove she belongs in physics on her own. And hanging over her head is the constant threat of someone discovering who she really is.

Then, someone with influence in history accidentally casts vast ripples through the fabric of space-time.

In the wake are consequences Elie and William cannot explain away. As the world around them begins to reveal subtle, alarming fractures, they realize the past has been changed… and the only way to protect the future may be to risk time itself once more.

But recreating the time-travel experiment is only the beginning. Setting the timeline right will test their understanding of physics, their faith in one another, and the future they’ve fought to build.

A time travel novel of physics, family, history, and the choices that shape a life.

Dystopian science fiction

Preview the audiobook (narrated by the author):

In 2142, women control human reproduction—and they’re about to weaponize it.

Dart Maylord is a brilliant but isolated endocrinology researcher working for the Department of Reproduction in the female-ruled half of a divided America. She’s never met a man, never questioned the wall that splits Washington, D.C., or the lies told about what stretches beyond it.

Until one day, a male researcher crosses that wall.

Alex Smern isn’t the violent Neanderthal Dart was led to expect—he’s sharp, disarmingly funny, and curious about the world she’s never dared to question. Their collaboration begins with science but quickly becomes something more dangerous: connection. Trust. Desire.

Then Dart stumbles on a classified document she shouldn’t see. The reproductive system isn’t just being managed—it’s being manipulated. And men are being systematically erased.

Worse still, Dart’s own family may be orchestrating the scheme.

As she digs deeper, Dart must choose between protecting the people she loves and exposing a truth that could unravel the fragile balance of power. With Alex by her side and everything she thought she knew crumbling around her, Dart has to decide: is losing family worth rebellion?

Because if she doesn’t act soon, there may be nothing left to save.

A thoughtful and chilling sci-fi novel  it unfolds as something far more human and sincere, supported by the novel’s thoughtful prose.” – Reedsy Discovery
“Silent Y is THE feminist, dystopian novel of our time. It is simply breathtaking!” – The Book Magnet
“This is a very fast paced book, jam packed with drama and excitement. I was hooked.” – P. Edmonson, Goodreads
