A testimony to love, in its many forms, and the power it has to shape our behaviour. Definitely one best to go into not knowing the precise details of the scenario, though I feel had we known the key details earlier it may have made it easier to connect to the characters.
Our main characters are Evelyn and Arden, two souls who are reincarnated each lifetime and who always find each other only for Arden to kill Evelyn as soon as they turn eighteen. Evelyn never recalls the details of their past lives, but there is always a hint of something that is picked up on right before the crucial moments.
The book starts with showing us some of the past incarnations. We don’t know exactly what’s happening until we catch up to Evelyn in the present where she lives in Abergavenny with her mother and a younger sister. This is a life she likes, though it is not without its hardship. As she approaches the time she knows marks her end, she is determined to find a way to challenge her fate.
As we journey through the book it’s not hard to see the power love holds. At times I felt rather cynical but as we learn more of the reason behind this strange predicament I found myself hoping that they would find a way to succeed where previously they had failed.
Thanks to NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read and review this prior to publication.
