Engines of Desire

“Some lifetimes bring union. Some bring awakening. This one brings both.”

As the Industrial Age reshapes the nation, the mill town of Lowell, Massachusetts becomes the center of a quiet revolution—one born from machines, labor, and two souls who recognize each other instantly across the divide of duty and desire.

Owen Taylor has spent decades inside the walls of Lowell’s largest mill—steady, reliable, and numb to the life he’s trapped in. Bound by marriage and responsibility, he has long accepted the quiet ache beneath his ribs as simply part of being a man of his era.

Mae Miller is everything he is not: young, outspoken, and fearless in her fight for worker safety and justice. When a factory accident forces their worlds to collide, the spark between them is immediate—and impossible to ignore.

What begins as conflict soon becomes connection.
What connection awakens becomes longing.
And what longing ignites… threatens to unravel Owen’s entire life.

As rumors stir, loyalties fracture, and the owners tighten their grip, Owen must confront a truth he never expected:
not all love is meant to fit inside a single lifetime.

Engines of Desire is a powerful, emotional installment in Journey Through Time: A Twin Flame Saga—a series that follows two bound souls across centuries and incarnations as they rediscover each other again and again.

This lifetime brings awakening.
The flame remembers.
And it will remember again.
