A well woven story relating our connection to history and how it impacts our current life. A young woman in her quest for truth accomplishes clarity regarding her past and finds both love and hope
for her future. This story moves back in history and forward into the present with a seamless flow. Easy to read.

If you like time-travel into past lives and beyond, you'll enjoy this story by new author Jane Maria.  Its descriptive characterizations of heavenly and earthly bodies weave in and out of time as we know it.  Although the main character Marisa is almost giddy and repetitive expressing present time, you can actually feel the contrast of intense changes in energy and emotion as she takes you to previous lives.  Also the visits to other levels of what seems to be like purgatories are most interesting.  If you've ever lost anyone, or even lost yourself, travel through this journey of redemption and find your way home.

Brought back some painful memories.  Sometimes it feels we're heading back to such a dangerous time

This book does a superb job of tying the turbulent past of the low country with a modern day story.  The jumping back and forth between time periods is smooth and does not get confusing like so many other stories that jump time periods.  I will probably read this one again in a few years.

This is one of those books whose nonlinear plot, from the beginning, disoriented me and got me thinking about the hidden relationships between seemingly unconnected events. It plays with one's sense of place and time. But the wandering journey is absolutely worth the trouble.

But once I did I enjoyed it. There were several places where I felt there was a lot of material just put in to make it longer. I got kind of lost in some of those areas until I could get back into the main part of the story. It was easy to become vested in these peoples' lives. I am very glad that I read this novel.

What if the things that happened yesterday actually happened differently than the way you remembered them?  Little things - like the broken car radio suddenly working again. Big things - like your relationship being just fine, when you remember a nasty breakup.

The author expertly weaves a tale of intrigue that shifts the reader between parallel timelines, following police detective Travis Becker as he discovers 'facts' about his life. You will not regret joining Travis on this journey, but you may regret starting this book if you have other things you should be doing instead!

Firstly, this book is a journey, if I could describe it in one word it'd be love. But not the kind we're used to seeing between two bodies; rather the all encompassing form of it, in all its glory and filth. The struggles in between. The steps towards it and even the times we fall short. I keep it in my work bag, and every once in a while I pull it out, flip through the pages and draw something new from it. Read a few lines and I'm taken back to a moment in time, a person, a place and I begin to relish or wallow and reflect between words. It is one of those reads you'll find yourself gripping, cherishing and holding on dearly, a timeless must read.

It's start out a little in the past but is back in time quickly. To be able to feel and find True Love so quickly could it be that easy ? No

It is amazing how easy it is to get so immerse into the pages of this book! I love reading these types of books slow and aloud so I can enjoy the journey and internalized better of course. I do recommend this book if you are trying to forget reality for a couple of hours and get immersed into something that will make you feel nostalgic. I for sure will be reading this book on the bus or on the train! I love it

I guess taking a step back to seemingly simpler times just to forget the struggles of the every day problems is a pleasant trip.

There is something about this woman's writing style that carries you away from the doldrums of your mundane existence and for  a few hours lets you be lost in the past. I never tire of reading her adventures.

I am not great at remembering history but I love behind the scenes type recollections that take us to a more personal place. I am much better at understanding things that happened and putting the pieces together when I see it from a more human, perspective. I was also an art major in college and one of my favorite classes was art history. It was wonderful reading about some of the great renaissance artists like Michelangelo Buonarroti - one of my personal favorites.

This is not always an easy read and can get dry and cumbersome at times. But I found it was worth reading, even if I had to keep going back to it.
