Full Amazon descriptionHe appears in photographs spanning decades. He never ages. He shouldn't exist. And Adrian Vale is about to fall in love with him.
Photographic conservator Adrian Vale has spent his life preserving other people's memories. But when he is hired to restore a forgotten collection beneath an abandoned railway station, he discovers photographs that should be impossible-images of people who never existed, places history never built, and lives the world somehow forgot.
Then Adrian notices the same mysterious man appearing again and again: 1961, 1962, 1963
Always the same face.Always watching.
His name is Silas Bell.
And one night, Silas steps out of the photographs.
Silas isn't a ghost. He is the surviving fragment of an erased reality-a man caught between a life that disappeared and a world in which he was never born. As Adrian uncovers the truth hidden within the Archive, their growing attraction becomes inseparable from a terrifying discovery: restoring the forgotten timelines may destroy the reality Adrian knows.
And Silas may have loved him before.
In another life.
In another world.
The Archive of Unlived Lives is an illustrated MM speculative romance combining slow-burn queer love, gothic mystery, alternate realities, archival photographs and a deeply emotional story about choosing the person you love-even when the universe says they were never meant to exist.
Featuring full-page story illustrations and specially created Archive Plates woven throughout the novel, the artwork is part of the mystery itself-revealing forgotten places, impossible photographs and clues from lives that were never lived.
For readers who want an MM romance that feels atmospheric, mysterious, visually immersive and different from the familiar.
