My first day back home and my husband's secretary was already flexing her muscles, trying to grab my antique right out of my hands. Before I could get a word out, she smacked me across the face. Twice. She sneered at me with a look that could freeze fire. "This piece caught my eye, and I'm being nice to you. Better apologize and thank me, pronto!" I moved to confront her, but before I knew it, her bodyguard had me pinned to the ground. She looked down at me like I was nothing. "Trying to challenge me? I'm Mrs. Collins of the Collins family here in Riverton City. You're nothing! One word from my husband and you're out of here!" Passersby started chiming in: "Aren't you going to bow down and beg? She's the apple of Mr. Collins' eye." "Play your cards right, and maybe you'll still be scrubbing toilets in Riverton City." I was ready to set things straight when her title hit me like a ton of bricks. The Collins family of Riverton City? When did Eric get another wife? I dialed Eric's number and laughed calmly. "Eric, since when did you secretly marry someone behind my back?"

Baru saja masa nifasnya usai, Winda Baskoro menggendong bayinya ke Dinas Kependudukan untuk mengurus kartu keluarga. "Pak, nama anakku Alex Harto." Petugas itu mengetik beberapa kali pada keyboard, tetapi dahinya makin berkerut. "Di kartu keluarga Tama Harto, sudah tercatat seorang anak bernama Alex Harto." Winda tertegun, mengira dirinya salah dengar. "Nggak mungkin, anak kami baru genap sebulan!" Belum selesai bicara, ponsel di sakunya bergetar. Saat dia membuka layar, terlihat foto dari asisten Tama, Sania Marsudi. Dalam foto itu, Tama merangkul pinggang Sania dengan tangan kiri, sementara tangan kanannya menggendong bocah laki-laki sekitar lima atau enam tahun. Ketiganya berdiri di depan gerbang TK, tersenyum begitu cerah hingga menyilaukan mata. Di papan nama yang tergantung di dada bocah itu, tertera jelas namanya, Alex Harto.

Eliza Ward does not fall through time. Time bends toward her. Pulled from the present into Revolutionary America, Eliza becomes trapped in a landscape where history repeats unevenly, battles restart with variations, and memory functions as both anchor and weapon. She is not a chosen heroine, but a constant: a woman whose awareness destabilizes the moment itself. She meets Mercy Hale, a midwife and witch who understands time as a negotiation rather than a force to command. Mercy aids Eliza’s survival while refusing the role of savior, having already learned the cost of standing too close to history’s center. During a looping battle, Eliza saves Thomas Reed, a Continental soldier who does not shift when time does. Thomas is an anchor: steady, observant, unchanged across iterations. Their bond deepens in an almost-normal village where time briefly behaves. Eliza’s intervention triggers time’s response. Rather than immediate destruction, time collects interest. Mercy bargains to spare Eliza and Thomas, sacrificing her own future to stabilize the present. Time extracts payment from Eliza as well, stripping away her voice, the very tool she uses to name and hold moments in place. Silenced and unmoored, Eliza is violently displaced back into the original battle. Unable to anchor the moment, she watches Thomas die in the version of history that was always waiting beneath her defiance. Told in rotating perspectives between Eliza, Thomas, and Mercy, The Hours That Refused to Behave is a lyrical time-travel novel about revolution, restraint, and consequence, asking not whether history can be changed, but who pays when it is.
