Books like Timebound by Rysa Walker
When Kate Pierce‑Keller's grandmother gives her a peculiar blue medallion and speaks of time travel, the sixteen‑year‑old dismisses it as delusion. Her world shatters when a past murder destroys the foundations of her present life, making the medallion her only shield against vanishing entirely.
Kate learns the 1893 killing is part of a larger conspiracy, and that her inherited ability to time‑travel makes her the sole savior who can set the future right. With everything on the line, she journeys back to the Chicago World’s Fair, determined to stop the murder and the ensuing chain of events.
But altering the timeline comes at a personal cost: if Kate succeeds, the boy she loves will never remember her. In the end, she must decide whether she has the right to rewrite fate for the world.
