In a world where time bends for a chosen few, Arden Hayes, an average American high schooler from Willow Creek, stumbles into a power he never asked for. During a chaotic gym class dodgeball game, he freezes time for five heart-pounding seconds to dodge a face-smashing ball, only to realize it’s no fluke. Enter Lila Voss, a sharp-tongued girl with the ability to glimpse the future, who drags him through a portal and away from shadowy hunters hot on their trail. Arden lands at Chrono Academy, a hidden school where Time Weavers train to master their gifts, stopping, slowing, rewinding, or even peering into time itself. Thrust into a whirlwind of quirky classmates, tough-talking professors, and cryptic warnings about rogue Weavers threatening the timeline, Arden must navigate this strange new life. Across five epic arcs, he’ll face rivalries, unravel secrets, and fight to protect a world he’s only beginning to understand all while figuring out if he’s got what it takes to weave time or just tangle it up.
