Description

In A Time for Us, readers are drawn into the life of Deborah, an African-American woman whose dreams reveal a connection to a previous existence. These dreams lead her to Pauli, a Caucasian man whose presence stirs a deep sense of familiarity within her. As Deborah explores the concept of reincarnation, she uncovers the tumultuous love story of Jeannette, an African-American seamstress from Harlem, and Mario, an Italian man entangled in the dangerous world of organized crime in 1940s New York City.

Deborah's journey is fraught with peril as she risks everything to uncover the hidden truths surrounding Jeannette and Mario's lives. Each revelation pulls her deeper into a historical landscape marked by racial tensions and societal constraints, where love defies the boundaries of time and circumstance. The intensity of Jeannette and Mario's love story resonates with Deborah, forcing her to confront her own feelings and the commitments she has in her current life.
