Storm Publishing has acquired World rights to two timeslip romances from USA Today-bestselling author Kennedy Kerr, with the first set for publication in early 2026.
Publisher Kathryn Taussig acquired World all language rights in ebook, print and audio formats to Kerr’s atmospheric new series. The first book, Timebound, will publish in February 2026, followed by a second later that year.
Timebound is a sweeping timeslip romance set against the dramatic backdrop of 18th-century Cornwall. It follows Penny, a modern woman drawn to the crumbling ruins of Trevarron House, who finds herself transported back to 1715 when she steps through an ivy-covered archway. Mistaken for a lady’s maid, Penny becomes entangled with the glamorous Trevarron family… particularly the brooding Lord William, a rebellious baronet trapped by duty but burning with secrets.
Kerr is the USA Today bestselling author of the bestselling Magpie Cove and Loch Cameron series.
Publisher Kathryn Taussig said,
“It’s such a privilege and a pleasure to be working with Kennedy again, and on such an amazing project! She has this incredible gift for making you feel like you’re there, breathing in the sea air of 1700s Cornwall. Kennedy’s storytelling is both sweeping and intimate – she makes you care deeply about her characters while delivering all the historical drama and sexy, romantic tension you could want. I can’t wait to publish these.”
Kerr added,
“I’m delighted to be working with Kathryn and the fabulous team at Storm to bring readers a lavish, romantic and sexy historical timeslip story set in Cornwall, a place very dear to my heart. Cornwall is rich with magic and legend, and has a fascinating history, so it’s the perfect place to set a story of love, obsession, destiny and adventure. I hope readers fall in love with Trevarron House on the dramatic north Cornwall coast, and the brooding, gruff William De Vere Trevarron.”
