Synopsis



If you could learn the identity of your one true love—even though you will never meet— would you?
Years have passed since refugees from a ruined earth took to space, eventually settling a new system of planets. Science has not only made the leaps necessary to allow time travel, but the process engineered a strange side effect—predicting your one true love.
If you could save your one true love from an untimely death, would you be able to resist?
Sixteen-year-old Kaia Vespasian is an apprentice to the Historians—a group charged with using time travel to document the triumphs and failures of the past—and she can’t resist a peek at her long-dead soul mate in Ancient Egypt. Before she knows it, she’s broken every rule in the book, and the consequences of getting caught could destroy more than just her new romance.
Or would you have the strength to watch him die?
But when Kaia notices a fellow classmate snooping around in a time where he doesn’t belong, she suspects he has a secret of his own—and the conspiracy she uncovers could threaten the entire universe. If her experience has taught her anything, to changing history means facing the consequences. The Historians trained her to observe and record the past, but Kaia never guessed she might have to protect it— in a race across time to save her only chance at a future.


Review

5 Stars 


How can I possibly put words together worthy of this book? I was hooked from the first few pages and it continued throughout the entire book. What a story! I’ve always been a lover of the idea of visiting the past and watching great historical events, and in this book, it’s possible!
Trisha has encapsulated a world in the future that is both amazing and awe-inspiring.
Kaia is a young woman, studying to be a Historian, reflecting on major events in the past that had led to the Earth becoming inhabitable. Her grandfather helped design the world they now live in and their ways so she is considered lucky and escapes punishment easily. However, she has trouble focusing and it causes her to stumble across a way to visit the past wherever she wants and not under the guided eye of her mentors.
I absolutely recommend this book to those who love time travel, historical events, or awesome, rule-breaking-girls with a smart mouth.
