The Rules of Time Travel

A cosy romcom about second chances and great coffee

Rey is new to time travel and still learning how it works. She’s come back in time in a last-ditch attempt to prevent a future disaster. She doesn’t know if she can change the timeline but she’s determined to find out.

She arrives outside Daily Grind a matter of weeks before the cafe will be destroyed in a fire that leaves one dead.

It’s the perfect test. She seizes the opportunity and weaves her way into the fabric of the team.

Dom runs Daily Grind, the cafe that turned his life round. But now it’s under threat of demolition and he doesn’t know if he has the energy to save it.

Jack is Daily Grind’s aspiring Assistant Manager and artist-in-residence. Get to know him and maybe he’ll tell you his unified theory of time travel.

Kate bakes Daily Grind’s delicious cakes. She’s pushing Dom to fight the planners and praying he can swallow his pride and ask Stuart, her millionaire husband, for help.

Stuart is relentless in his pursuit of perfection. But there’s a fly in the ointment: Dom, his wife’s ex.

Here’s Rey’s chance. Stop the fire. Save a life. Prove the fate of the world isn't sealed. But someone is keeping a dark secret they will do anything to protect.

A feel-good time travel romance for fans of Legends & Lattes, This Is How You Lose The Time War, and Nick Hornby that may mean you can never hear Cher's 1989 hit 'If I Could Turn Back Time' the same way again.

Not bad for a free one

It took me awhile to
Understand the time resets. Once that was done, the story became much more cohesive.
