ABOUT THE BOOK -
Only by looking into the past can Audrey save her future.
Audrey Eames is happy living the wanderer’s life. After a near-death experience in her teens, Audrey can see people’s past lives whenever her skin touches theirs, and afraid of being labeled delusional, she’s never stayed in one place too long or made any deep connections.
So when Audrey’s estranged aunt dies and leaves her the historic Soberly Inn and Public House on the scenic Oregon coast, Audrey wants nothing to do with it. She’s determined to sell the inn and leave town before someone discovers the power she’s been hiding from the world, but clauses in her aunt’s will seem to block her at every turn.
Yet once ensconced in Soberly’s small town life, the people—particularly the inn's bartender, Kellen Greene—start to grow on her, and she begins to feel that maybe she’s finally found a place of her own. As accepting as the townspeople seem, Audrey fears their reactions—and Kellen’s rejection—and decides to keep her visions a secret. But all is not well in Soberly. Soon after Audrey arrives, people in town start dying in the same manner as in their past lives—but in this lifetime it’s murder. When suspicion starts to fall on Audrey and Kellen, Audrey vows to use her gift to find the murderer and protect the people she loves—before it’s too late.

MY THOUGHTS -
I absolutely loved this book! I was interested and hooked right from the beginning. What a great original storyline. There are so many books about people being able to see people's past - but to see their past lives? That's a new one! This was well written, fast paced, interesting, sweet, and put you on the edge of your seat more than a few times. It was hard for me to believe this was her first book!
I loved the characters! Loved Audrey right from the start. At first I wasn't sure about Kellen. I thought maybe he was a player, but very quickly fell in love with him too. The author does an equally fantastict job with all the minor characters.
There are certain things that draw each person into a story and makes them fall in love with it. Sometimes its the characters, sometimes its the mystery, sometimes its the setting. For this one it was really all of those!
A huge two thumbs up for this new author. Can't wait to see what she has in store for us next, I'm on board!
- Thank You!!
