WOW! This is how you do fated lovers. This gave me everything I wanted, found lovers, angst, fighting to get back to each other. give me the sequel now!!!!

I found this book difficult to read. It has what I believe is a great story, but I found it slow. The intrigue woven in is good, but the romance left much to be desired. The pacing and some of the other elements of the book took away from the romance for me.

On the one hand, there is this great story of two souls finding each other again and how it shapes the artist's work and how he sees the woman, but then the way the artist's desire to paint overshadows the romance at critical moments killed the vibe for me.

Not very enjoyable, writing is decent enough but the story structure is nonexistent. It jumps between dialogues so often, in the same paragraph at times, that you can’t be certain which conversation is the current. The story skips events but then refers back to them with little descriptions that I wondered if I missed pages. There is intent to build mystery but just comes off as creepy. The characters are not relatable and remain strangers to the reader thru the entirety.
Would not recommend.

This was a strong start to this series and had that reincarnation element that I was looking for. I was invested in what Brownell Landrum was writing and enjoyed how unique the reincarnation mystery element worked. The characters worked well overall and enjoyed how good they worked with the story.
