From the Back Cover
I see him in my dreams, this mysterious boy.
He comes from
a different time,
a different place,
a different reality.
But there is something that connects us.
We are supposed to be together--bound by the heart of another.
But that's not possible... or is it?

MY THOUGHTS:
LOVED IT
A true time travel romance that will appeal to all of us girls everywhere. There are bits of Romeo and Juliet mixed with a modern approach that time travels back in history. The story reminded me a bit of Libba Bray's series, but I liked this one a bit more since the descriptions are to the point and not overly wordy. I am more of a dialogue person and the conversations are very realistic.
I have read several of Lisa Cach's other stories and she is excellent at mixing up her characters and their actions. This was a quick read for me and I think those that enjoy a good clean romance will enjoy this one. There is also a touch of historical and gothic elements which I think are the next big thing.
The bit of time travel does make it seem interesting!
