Description

Elara Vance has spent her life chasing the ghost of a melody, a song she hears in her dreams but cannot quite grasp in the waking world. As a rising star in the cutthroat music scene, she is used to fighting for her place on stage, but her life shifts irrevocably when she crosses paths with a woman who seems to exist out of time. Their connection is immediate, electric, and impossible, pulled together by forces that defy the laws of physics and the constraints of the present. This is not just a story of a whirlwind romance; it is a profound exploration of deep, nourishing love that spans the boundaries of history. As Elara navigates the complexities of her career and the fragile reality of her heart, she must decide if a love that shouldn't exist is worth fighting for against the relentless ticking of the clock. Hildred Billings delivers a masterclass in emotional resonance, offering a narrative that is both intellectually stimulating and deeply intimate. With complex characters and a unique, genre-bending approach to the classic rockstar trope, this book captures the raw honesty of finding your soulmate in the most unexpected timeline. It is a beautiful, unforgettable journey through the heart.

Incredible story!

This is an amazing story about love- deep nourishing love in several capacities. I was captured by this character and her acceptance and honesty about herself. Although I want to read it again, I can’t yet. I also can’t release it; it’s had a profound effect on me. I reflect on it often. It’s one of the best books I’ve ever read. I highly recommend this book; incredibly unique from Hildred Billings!

Time travel with Thelma’s story

This story is a departure from the usual Billings/Dane book but an enjoyable read. It's a hard thing to imagine if time travel existed and only worked one way, how would one respond to finding that out, let alone experiencing it. That's where Thelma finds herself during a quick milk run. While I enjoyed the story, I felt Thelma reacted remarkedly well (even with the government therapy and program before being released) to finding herself 60 years in the future with half of those in her life no longer alive and meeting her grown, elderly children. I felt some sections of the story were a bit rushed through where they could have been explored more or the overall impact of the situation was glossed over a bit. Overall, I liked Thelma's journey in accepting herself, the new world she finds herself in, and the nuances in trying to adapt to new family dynamics with Robbie and Debbie while finding love unexpectedly.

What a Great Story!!

Thus was such a great story, I really always enjoy Hildred Billings books, but this was truly different from her past works. It told the story of a woman going out to buy milk one night in 1958 and going through a fog and ending up in 2018. It was really good I could not put in down. One of the best by Hildred congratulations. I know I will reread it in the future.
