About this listen

One of the greatest love stories in history gets derailed when a struggling poet at Cambridge runs into a time-traveler who agrees to help him find his muse a thoughtful and uplifting romantic comedy for fans of Holly Miller, Sophie Cousens and Rebecca Serle.

'A fresh and clever romcom, brimming with charm and tenderness’ Holly Miller, internationally bestselling author of The Sight of You

'A beautifully crafted love story on the nature of fate and free will, delivered with huge charm and warmth’ Laura Jane Williams, author of Our Stop

Clever, warm and moving – I loved it’ Holly Smale, author of Cassandra in Reverse

THIS LOVE STORY IS ABOUT TO BE REWRITTEN

Cambridge University student Joe Greene dreams of a future where his words will echo through the ages.

Then, the future quite literally finds him – in the form of Esi. She’s part of a time-traveling tour to witness history's greatest moments. In Esi’s era, Joe is as renowned as Shakespeare. And he's about to meet Diana, a fellow student, who will become his muse and the subject of his famous love poems.

But Esi is harbouring a secret. Something will happen at Cambridge this year that will wreck Esi’s life, and she’s hell-bent on changing it. Until she bumps into Joe, and sends his destiny into a tailspin. To save both their futures, Esi becomes Joe's dating coach, helping him win over Diana. But when Joe starts falling for Esi instead – they both face a crucial question:

Is the future set in stone, or can we rewrite our fates?

The sweetness of romcom About Time collides with the rich melancholy and high-stakes romance of Time Traveller's Wife in this gorgeous new love story destined to be future classic.
