Tamar and Fayard are destined to be together. In the 14th century, the 1920s or the 2000s, they always find each other.

Reasons why I liked this book: 

1. This book was confusing at times, but I think the timelines were integrated in a great way. 
2. The writing was certainly gorgeous, packed with emotion. 
3.The way their romance was portrayed was so smooth. 
4. I loved that the characters felt real. They were so well written that even in different timelines, their essence never changed.

This is a story of self-discovery, reincarnation and destiny. For All Time is a refreshing concept, spanning different genres, from science to historical fiction. It is a beautiful example of the soul mates and reincarnation trope. 

I highly recommend this book.

5.0

Enjoyed the uniqueness of this and the cast of characters. Fayard is always a bit sappy in all his versions (<3) and Tamar is the more no-nonsense, cynical one.

This takes “star-crossed lovers and past lives,” and amps it up to 10. I loved seeing the different Fay’s and Tamar’s fall in love. It’s buffet style; we get sci-fi, historical, thriller, and YA contemporary romance here with a scoop of each on a well-written plate. Stellar reading experience and the ending was pretty much perfect.
