Summary of the Book:
She Must Choose Between Living Her Past and Creating a New Life
April Robins is a mess. Her diet and wardrobe are disastrous, she’s stopped exercising, and the nightmares are back—nightmares that started at puberty and didn’t stop until she married. Now that she’s divorced, the dreams are worse than ever, and April’s malaise has her cat and her best friend, Trish, worried.
April decides it’s time to get her life back in order by running and eating better. She also agrees to attend a class Trish thinks will introduce them to new guys. When April meets the class instructor, Mitch van der Waals, an expert in the paranormal, she discovers they have a lot in common including a mutual attraction. When she and Mitch start dating, both cat and best friend approve.
But when the hospital where April works as a medical technologist hires Dr. Weston, a handsome, new cardiologist, things get complicated. At her first meeting with Dr. Weston, April faints. As he shows more and more interest in her, she finds herself unaccountably affected by Weston, sometimes irritated, other times literally falling into a trance in his presence.
April realizes Weston was a key player in her past lives as she struggles to find the root cause of her nightmares through past life regressions, sessions in the sleep lab, and strangely spontaneous trances.
Does she have a choice between being who she is now and who she seems to have been over and over again?
Solving the mysterious origins of the nightmares that have echoed down through April’s many lives could be a matter of life and death, in this life and beyond.
My Personal Review: I receives a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. I saw the concept of this book and I could not wait to get my hands on it. The cover art is amazing and gives off a certain vibe for the book. I knew going it was about past live regression. April has had nightmare for most of her life that only stopped when she got married. She now recently divorced and the nightmares are back worse than ever. She has a couple love interests in this book and while she is trying to figure out the connection with one and why she all but faints or does faint around one. I found the book good. It did leave me wanting more.
My Rating of the Book: 4 Stars
