How many times can you lose the person you love?
A powerful and epic debut novel for teenagers about reincarnation and the timelessness of first love from a talented young writer.
Teenagers Katherine and Matthew are destined to be born again and again. Each time their presence changes history for the better, and each time, they fall hopelessly in love, only to be tragically separated.
But why do they keep coming back? What else must they achieve before they can be left to live and love in peace?
Maybe the next together will be different...
In 1745, during the siege of Carlisle, in 1854 on the way to the Crimea, in 2019 and 2039 as first scientists and then students uncovering and rediscovering a dangerous plot, and in multiple timescales between, they are thrown together, with no memory of having met one another before, only an irresistible instinct that they must be with one another against all odds – even while the epic events unfolding all around seem sure to tear them apart.
Why I'm Excited:
That cover! In love. This sounds very cool. I love the idea of two reincarnated souls finding each other again and again. It sounds like more than a love story, too, which is awesome. I definitely have my eye out for this one.

ReplyDeleteOh that cover, what a gorgeous thing it is! I'm a little worn down on the whole reincarnation plot line, but maybe I can set aside my preconceptions for such a pretty cover (I'm a sucker!)
