Paranormal Romance

What would you do? What rules would you break to be with your soul mate? This morning Hadley Christensen and Dominic Morris woke up living their dream lives. They are engaged and each has promising careers in the  medical field. They are happier and more fulfilled than they have ever been, and they are ready to begin their happily ever after.

Sadly, on her way to work, Hadley is in an accident. Before taking her last breath, she realizes she is already dead - and everyone on Earth is too. Now Hadley and Dominic must each find a way to live without one another. How do they continue when they are two parts of one flame?

Hadley is given permission by the Masters to contact Dominic in the hopes he will also realize he is already dead. If Dominic can open his mind to hear Hadley they can be together forever. Is Dominic ready to give up life the way he knows it? 

Awesome Quote: 


Think of Earth as one enormous waiting room. On Earth, we can do all the things needed to learn and grow for the next cycle of life. Life on Earth is a practice run. A dress rehearsal. While we're on Earth we can play. Love. Find our talents. Those who are smart, use them. It's a pity that not near enough of the population do. Most waste their time on Earth gossiping, arguing, spending too much money, worrying about anything and everything. We cause pain. To ourselves and others. The opposite of living. Why? I don't know. What I do know is that love, being happy, and feeling gratitude for everyone and everything is all its really about.”

My Review:
★★★★☆

While normally I do not enjoy the split point of view type books that much, I will admit that this one captured my attention. The story line is fresh and unique. It kept me reading straight through to the end.

I was really surprised by how engaging the story was. I expected to read through it quickly and put it aside, ready to read another book. I am like that with most books, so I am not saying that I thought this wouldn't be any good. What I mean to say is that at the end of this book, I closed it, set it aside, and just sat, thinking about it. I really would like to read more by this author. I think her books will become progressively better as each one is released. I love that in an author!

So I don't want to say much about the story. As you can gather from the blurb and quote, Earth isn't quite what we think it is. Hadley is no longer 'alive' to her fiance and they are both mourning each other's loss. Hadley has to reach Dominic and make him understand how it really is, so that they may be together.

Don't you really want to read it now and see what happens? I'd bet you will enjoy this book as much as I did. So go, read, enjoy! Then sit back and think about life and death and what they actually mean to you.
