One Door Closes: The Beginning

An American professor of Ancient History, Dr. Josephine Pearce has been invited to Cambridge, England to give a prestigious lecture series. While there, Jo discovers, to her dismay, that the path she is on is not the path for which she was meant. When a seemingly ordinary bookshop door opens, drawing her into an extraordinary setting, Jo is invited to rediscover her ancient past, recapture the emotions of her soul's journey, and bring that re-connection forward with her.

If you enjoy it, keep an eye out for the rest of the “One Door Closes” series!

Hooked from the start. I couldn't put this down. So many real-life connections. I felt I was there. Is this me? J. Roberts' story flowed easily. I felt at home in the familiar scenes of an antique bookshop and misty English countryside walks, while the words of a loveable, but mysterious, sage echoed in my mind. Could this happen? Did it happen? Can't wait for the next book!

This far exceeded my expectations. A short read and the writer grasped my attention the entire time. I’ve had this book for over a year and sad that it took me so long to open the book and read. Beautifully written, and it is filled with symbolism that could relate to anyone. Excited to read more from this author!

A mystical storyline and introduction to 5 main characters. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series to see how the story develops.
