Timeless Love 5 ventures into time-travel romance territory, where the supernatural element of crossing time periods creates unique challenges and opportunities for love. The five books explore different scenarios of characters displaced in time or meeting across eras, with the “timeless” title suggesting that true love exists beyond temporal boundaries.
Time-travel romance allows Hickey to combine historical and contemporary elements, fish-out-of-water comedy, and the heightened stakes created when lovers literally come from different times. The series must balance the fantastical premise with Christian faith, likely emphasizing that God’s design for love transcends human understanding of time. The temporal element adds freshness to romance formulas while the faith-based foundation keeps the stories grounded in values and meaning beyond the gimmick.
