Love on the Edge of Time #2
Love on the Edge of Forever
“I’ll find you again.”
That was my husband Jesse’s dying promise, a vow I’m certain he’ll keep. This wasn’t the first lifetime Jesse and I shared, and since love never dies, we knew, someday, we would be reunited.
After he passed away, I thought I’d never experience a love like that again—not in this lifetime anyway—and I accepted that.
But fate had other plans for me…
I met Dev Abramson when his white German shepherd plowed into me in Central Park, knocking me flat on my back, then slathering my face with her effervescent kisses. I was instantly drawn to Dev’s calm, centered presence and to his dog, Sheba, who welcomed me like a long-lost friend.
Dev gave me his card, but I failed to follow up, something I deeply regretted. So, when our paths crossed a second time, I wasn’t about to let him slip away again. I needed to know more about the handsome jazz pianist.
I never expected to fall in love with Dev, but now that I have—I’m afraid if I tell him that I was married to Jesse, one of the most famous rock stars in the world, and that we have shared previous lifetimes—I’ll lose him.
But my connection with Dev was instantaneous and so deep—as if I’d known him forever.
And I can’t help but wonder, maybe I have…

Julie has done it once again - blown me away with her astounding & talented writing.
First and foremost, you must read this book AFTER you read Love on the Edge of Time. This is the conclusion to that book and cannot be read as a standalone.
Now, where do I begin with this one. It's been 6.5 years since Julie released the first book but it resounded with me so well, that after reading the blurb, it all came back to me as if I just read it. And no doubt, Love on the Edge of Forever is the same way.
This book touched my soul so deeply. I won't go into details of this book - the blurb gives you all you need to know. But this book truly shows what a true soulmate is.
Julie delivers a profound story that will is very thought-provoking and will bring you to your knees. The emotions I felt while reading were jaw-dropping intense and I could not walk away from this story.
Love on the Edge of Forever is more than a romance - it's the story of many lifetimes. It's a story that will forever stay with me.

I just finished Julie Richman’s Love on the Edge of Forever. And I am a bit lost for words. Please heed the warning that this is not a standalone!
I’m still recalling the images Ms. Richman painted with her words as Kylie and Dev’s therapy sessions rolled out. I adored their love story and their journey to find each other time and again was beautiful. I don’t want to reveal too much because spoilers are no fun!
But I will say prepare for the smiles when there’s a few cameos from your fav beloved characters from another amazing series.
Ms. Richman took a few years off from publishing and I’m absolutely thrilled she’s back! And back with a wonderfully beautiful romance. ~ Missy, 5 stars

You won't be disappointed
Love on the Edge of Forever is the conclusion of Kylie's journey. After losing her soulmate, the famous, or should that be infamous, Jesse Winslow, she must find a way to carry on, believing that the great love of her life has gone and she will never find that love again.
But fate has plans for her.
Enter Dev and his gorgeous white German Shepherd, Sheba. Kylie meets them completely by accident but feels an instant recognition, an instant bond. Is there an inexplicable link between Kylie, Dev and Sheba? And does that link also include Jesse?
I loved this book, I love the idea that love does not die, it transcends time, it is endless. The story is thought provoking, is there such a thing as coincidence or does everything happen for a reason?
If you loved Love on the Edge of Time you will adore this and yes, Kylie gets the happy ending she so deserves.

Dev and Kylie…my book heart is so full following their journey. Thank You Julie Richman for their story.
Kylie is at a loss, suffered a loss, is lost. She’s trying to survive life after the devastating loss of her husband, her true love. Their story was an experience that they shared in so many ways and in so many lifetimes. But Jesse always kept his promise and she knew they’d be connected again.
When the stars aligned, Kylie had a chance meeting with a dog in the park. Little did she know that that dog and its owner, Dev, were about to change everything. She felt an overwhelming connection to this man. And maybe it was her imagination but Dev and his dog seemed to feel it as well. But they parted ways and went forward. Kylie however, couldn’t shake him from her memory. A bit later, they had another chance encounter. Neither was going to let this feeling slip through their fingers.
They began meeting and quickly and effortlessly gave in to their feelings. Kylie felt that Dev was more than just the man to reawaken her soul. Could he be more than he appeared? If she wanted to move forward, she had to let Dev know about her past. Would he be able to accept and understand? Would he try or walk away?
Richman wove an intricate and detailed story of Kylie in her past and present. This was an emotional read that affected my heart and seeped into my soul. It wasn’t easy for Kylie and Dev to navigate their relationship. Nothing and everything was as it seemed.
It was wonderful to see some older characters as well. It added so much to the story.
And remember, sometimes when you feel like you've known someone for forever, maybe you have!

Love on the Edge of Forever is the second book in the Love on the Edge of Time duet by Julie Richman. This book is almost seven years in the making and it was totally worth the wait. You cannot read it as standalone.
Kylie lost the love of her life almost five years ago. It wasn’t the first time and she knows it won’t be the last. Jesse will find her again just as he has done before. Their love will never end.
Kylie never expected to be knocked over and loved on by a dog in Central Park. Then, she saw its owner and felt a spark. A connection. And she felt it again weeks later when she saw him again which is not an easy feat in New York City. From that night, everything just felt right. He felt right. But, she didn’t know how he would react when he found out who her husband was. She was scared of losing him. Fate steps in and now they need to navigate what it means…
Are Dev and Sheba part of her soul group?
Damn, Julie has done it again. She absolutely didn’t lose her touch. This story is raw, beautiful, passionate, and really makes you think about the people in your life. In your past lives.

Deja Vu …. Ever get that feeling that you’ve been somewhere before, felt this feeling with that person knew deep down it’s something or someone you’ve crossed paths with…. Well in this story Kylie not only has had one great love in her life but was blessed to discover 2 and not just in this life, but with help of a therapist and regressions she has found them both in multi lives, spanning from one life time to another. Jesse not only loved her and promised to find her again before taking his last breath, he always makes sure she is cared for in the same once he is gone. Julie’s writing takes you with them Into regression and it makes you feel you are living right there in another time holding on to every last printed word. Dev is a beautiful soul waiting to find his great love one that “Sheba” his protective White Germany Shepard has a hand in. He too is looking for his person, animals they know…..

After reading Love on the Edge of Time, which is a MUST READ (and you have to read it before this sequel!!!) I was literally blown away with the whole premise of Jesse and Kylie's incredible love story! The set up for Love on the Edge of Forever was PERFECTLY done....and boy, did Ms. Richman deliver!!!
I could not put this book down! Kylie's journey to healing after losing Jesse was heartbreaking, yes! I felt it ALL and, like Kylie, I was not quite ready to let him go, but I also knew that they would be together in another lifetime! And then she "meets" Dev (and Sheba!) in Central Park and her life shifts on its axis once again! The journey to discovering even MORE about Kylie's soulmates is one that has touched my soul, one I will NEVER forget!
Love on the Edge of Forever is the completely compelling and thought-provoking, sometimes heartbreaking but at the same time uplifting and UNPUTDOWNABLE conclusion to Kylie's life-altering journey! 5 STARS ARE SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH!!!!

Chapter 2 of Kylie and Jesse - really its a beautiful epilogue on a romance across lifetimes. You have to read the first book, Love On The Edge of Time to understand Kylie’s romance - there are many references to the first book, IT IS IMPORTANT to read it to get the full scope.
Back to my review:
Wow. This story got to me. I was emotional for Kylie - she is such a strong female character who has so many friends who have her back. Including a few characters I missed greatly. Kylie had love all around her.
Dev, oh Dev. As a reader, we don’t get Dev’s POA, and truly it wasn’t needed. His turmoil, confusion, and love for Kylie leap off the pages. It was beautiful.
I loved the epilogue. It was so appropriate. A satisfying, tear jerker of - not an ending, but a journey that lasts thru lifetimes.

The perfect sequel! ❤️💔❤️💝❤️
“Love is the only thing that is eternal, then, now, to the edge of time, and beyond the edge of time. It is always there.” OMG!
This is the perfect sequel to Love on the Edge of Time, which I know left many readers disappointed with how it ended. Nothing disappointing though about the conclusion to this duet, except maybe that the journey is now over.
This is a beautiful love story and not your typical romance of today. I found it very interesting and different, leaving me with a lot to think about. This is one story that certainly will not fade from memory any time soon.
If you’ve read Love on the Edge of Time (book 1 in this duet), this is an absolute must read. If you haven’t, I suggest making it your next read and immediately following up with this sequel. This duet is an awesome journey. ❤️💔❤️💝❤️

What a wonderfully emotional ending to Kylie's story. I was captivated by the first book and this held my attention and heart in a totally different way, but no less profound. I loved how different and thought provoking these books were. Yes it is a love story, however it is like nothing I have ever read before. I found this book much more emotional that the first book and I loved seeing Kylie's growth in how she handled her relationship with Dev. As I read this book it make me think and wonder what if.... If you are looking for something different and thought provoking then this is absolutely the series for you. I voluntarily read an advance copy of this book for my honest review.

I was mesmerized and fully immersed in this story! Having had Kylie and Jesse’s experiences and jaw dropping ending in Love on the Edge of Time I couldn’t fathom how Julie Richman would continue this journey, or should I say journeys…. Well, she did it in a way that was so elaborately woven and beautifully executed and in such cohesive detail that I felt as if I was being transported in time with the characters and feeling all the emotions and love that withstood time!
Executed perfectly, this story had me pondering on how the souls of these characters, Jesse, Kylie, Dev and yes, even Sheba were intricately connected over time and how second epilogues are possible because of unending eternal love. True soulmates in every sense of the word.
Is it Synchronicity? Coincidence? Fate?
“Love is the only thing that is eternal, then, now, to the edge of time, and beyond the edge of time. It is always there.”
“Love never dies, love is energy, and energy cannot be destroyed, no matter what fate may bring.”
Well done Julie Richman! I am so glad to have had the privilege to read this duet that came to life with so much love!

A wonderful, time crossing love story that moves eloquently through history. Two lovers destined to find each other time and time again. Until all is put right. This sequel to Love on the Edge of Time follows our heroine to find her hero again, through the millennia. The research and historical references in this book are outstanding.

I have never been as engrossed in a book as I was while reading Love on the Edge of Forever. Kylie and Dev's journey through everlasting love is mesmerizing. I felt like I was on their journey with them and I definitely did't want this story to end. Ten+ stars!

Taking time away from writing did not hurt his talented author one bit. In fact, Love on the Edge of Forever is one of Julie A. Richman's best books to date. Book 1, Love on the Edge of Time was such a unique kind of experience, the use of regression appointments at the crux of Kylie Martin's whirlwind life as a model and love interest for rock star Jesse Winslow. Now with huge sadness in her heart after a life-altering event that ended Book 1, Kylie is on the cusp of a new adventure as her very existence is turned on its ear once more as Devlin Abramson crashes into her life both literally and figuratively.
What an extraordinary journey! Richman's ongoing attention to detail together with her extensive research makes this book sing. I definitely needed more after finishing Love on the Edge of Time almost 7(!) years ago and this latest gem is exactly the kind of conclusion I needed for Kylie. This woman has had quite a life and now as a successful businesswoman with her bestie Sip by her side, I wondered if there was still room for love. Richman doesn't let us wait long for an answer because the almost instant connection she has with Dev and his dog Sheba after they collide in Central Park could be felt immediately by both Kylie and this reader and from here I knew the next chapters of this wonderful woman's future would be anything but mundane.
Richman's use of regressions still fascinates me as Kylie realizes that like Jesse, Dev may have been with her all along when delving into her subconscious past lives. Raul as Kylie's therapist is exactly what she needed after the horror of Claire. I liked his calm demeanor and how he allowed Kylie to offer suggestions in order to find out exactly who Dev may be to her now and if he meant something to her before. I also liked that the regressions did not overcome the main story, simply the path of two people finding their forever, falling for each other one day at a time.
Beautiful and her Ten of Cups are beyond perfect for one another. Kylie and Dev find a rhythm that is as smooth as the music he creates on the piano almost from the start. Of course, Kylie would fall for yet another musician but the songs he performs as he looks at her from the stage are what dreams are made of and I could tell hers were coming true once more.
Much happens with the pages of this well-written and well-paced book. Dev gets to enter Kylie's world in the most astonishing of ways, coming to grips with how powerful a word like soulmate can be. Their paths are forever linked and the way Richman intersects their many lives is both magical and divine. There are the requisite supportive secondary characters, some of which are long-time favorites of the author, which is always a sweet surprise. And they provide humor, a shoulder to lean on and loyalty when needed most.
But the strength Kylie puts forth and the fierce energy she sends out to the world is what drives this book. She is a force to be reckoned with. Someone who loves hard and takes care of her own. I shed a tear or two as she kept on living even when she didn't want to, her pain beautifully soothed by a well-timed falling yellow leaf or by the handsome piano man who quite simply rocked her world. I loved her drive, her moxie and her penchant for telling it like it is. A woman as unforgettable as the memories that fill her very soul.
Love on the Edge of Forever is a must-read for its exceptional storyline and captivating characters. Love on the Edge of Time, however, is to be read first in order to fully understand the whys of Kylie's actions and all that she has been through. I am thrilled Julie A. Richman is back and better than ever and happily give this book a huge 5+ stars!

Love on the Edge of Forever is the sequel to Love on the Edge of Time by the talented Julie A. Richman. If you loved Love on the Edge of Time as much as I did you have been waiting for the rest of Kylie's story. It's been a long wait but Julie did not disappoint. It's like no time has passed at all. Julie's words are even more powerful now and the continuation of Kylie's story was perfection. Kylie and Jesse had a love that would never die. Lives that will meet again and again. They learned so much together and now he's gone and Kylie needs to decide how she wants to live the rest of her life. When a chance meeting in Central Park leaves her with tingles (and a lot of dog slobber), Kylie can't stop thinking about Dev. She missed her chance to call him, but when he shows up at a friend's holiday party she can't believe her luck. But is it luck? Coincidence? Or more? Dev can't believe his dog got loose and jumped a woman in the park. Especially since Sheba never reacts to women that way. He instantly knew this woman was special. When he sees her months later, he isn't letting her get away again. He's never felt this way before. The connection between him and Kylie is so strong and he's not going to fight it. The though doesn't even cross his mind. He's all in. Calling, texting, wanting to see her all the time. He doesn't want to scare her, but he can't help but fall for her. It's been a long time since Jesse's been gone. As soon as Kylie met Dev she knew it was time to move on and Dev was the man she wanted to do it with. She needed to tell him about her life with Jesse. In this lifetime and the past ones. But she's afraid of how Dev will react. The chance meetings and coincidences keep happening and she's even more convinced that this isn't the first time she's met Dev either. What does that mean? Did Jesse send her Dev? Was it just a chance meeting that has nothing to do with Jesse? Or was she always supposed to lose Jesse so she could find Dev? Julie gives us such a moving and powerful story of destiny and fate. But more than that, faith in the person you love. Believing their truths and doing whatever you can to understand everything about them. I'm a believer in past lives and meeting the same people over and over again. I was sucked into this story so fast and finished it in a handful of hours. I couldn't stop reading and found myself wanting to speed up so I can see how their story ends and then forcing myself to slow down so I could savor every word. Every emotion. Every swoony thing Dev did for Kylie. I loved Jesse and he, and their story, will always hold a special place in my heart. But something about Dev and his protectiveness, his maturity, his talent, his affection and the way he loves Kylie just took my breath away. Dev stole my heart and the way he believed in her was epic. Kylie was lucky enough to find two great loves in her life. One who loved her with everything he was even if for a short time and one who was all in from the very beginning and plans to be there until the very end. It's the way it's always been and the way it will always be. This story was everything I wanted it to be and so much more. More heart. More love. More friendship. More intertwined than I ever thought possible. And of course my man, Schooner Moore, so happy to see you again! I wasn't sure it was possible to love anything more than Love on the Edge of Time, but let me tell you, it is! Dev and Kylie's story will never be forgotten. Bravo, Julie!
Love on the Edge of Forever is the sequel to Love on the Edge of Time by the talented Julie A. Richman. If you loved Love on the Edge of Time as much as I did you have been waiting for the rest of Kylie's story. It's been a long wait but Julie did not disappoint. It's like no time has passed at all. Julie's words are even more powerful now and the continuation of Kylie's story was perfection. Kylie and Jesse had a love that would never die. Lives that will meet again and again.

4.5+ stars
This is a story about epic loves in various lifetimes, fate, and soul-deep connections. We saw Kylie find her love in the first book but it ended in heartbreak. Four years later, has succeeded in her career, but knows that she already had her love of a lifetime or several lifetimes, and has resigned herself to being alone.
But an unexpected meeting with a sweet dog, Sheba, and her charismatic owner piques her interest. And it seems that maybe fate might be at work again.
Dev is talented, charismatic, thoughtful, and romantic. And he also feels an unusual connection to her.
But can Kylie, a woman who’s already known true love this lifetime find another one in the same lifetime?
Like in the last book, it’s interesting to see the unraveling of the past and how it affects the present. Some of these scenes are the most emotional ones. The layers of connections and the dynamics between the individuals paint these pictures from the past that keep morphing into new connections.
This is a much anticipated extended second epilogue for Kylie to find love again while also learning even more about her past. Before starting this book I was kind of expecting one thing and it was a bit different than I anticipated. So I was a bit concerned that I would not be able to let go of Jesse and embrace Dev, but Dev made it impossible for me not to like him. And the way the story progressed brought it all into perspective. And I was quite satisfied how it all fit together.
It’s also Dev's journey of finding love and also trying to figure out if his love is going to be enough. He doesn’t want to be in the shadow of Jesse, but is also intimidated by the information about the regression therapy. So he has to take his own journey to see where he fits in the grand scheme of their lives and their love stories that transcend time, distance, and death, and bring heartache, hope, healing, and infinite love.
I also loved some wonderful cameos of old friends.

Loved!
This book is the sequel to "Love on the Edge of Time." You need to read book #1 before reading this book.
This book picks up at Jesse's memorial for his music "friends" that his manager pushed Kylie into throwing. After maybe 2 hours, Kylie grabs his ashes and leaves with her friends. Then the story fast forwards to 4.5 years later with Kylie, Hayley, and Liz are now the owners of the previous modeling agency that Kylie used to work for, Sirens. After a long day at work, Kylie leaves work and walks through Central Park to get home. When a white German Shepard, runs and pushes her down with kisses and licks, Kylie laughs. The dog's owner is mortified. But Kylie feels peace with both the man and the dog for the first time in years. He gives her his card, but when she finally remembers, she figured it was too late.
Dev is a musician who specializes in teaching people who have learning disabilities or suffering from traumatic brain injuries. He uses music to heal. When he runs into Kylie a second time at a Christmas party, he refuses to miss out on seeing her again. So he asks her out for the following day. They soon become inseparable.
Kylie doesn't know if Dev knows who she really is, so she tells him she's a widow. But doesn't tell him who she was married to. She wants to keep them in a bubble. But when she finds out that Dev was Jesse's music teacher when he got into a motorcycle accident at 16 and suffered from a TBI, Kylie loses it. She knows that Jesse sent Dev to her just like David sent Daniel to Rachel. (In old recordings, you see a young Jesse say names from his past.)
Now she just needs to make Dev see that she's not crazy!
A beautiful story!! You get to see BBC Mia, Schooner, Zac, and Lilly too!!
A must read!!

Soulmates love forever
Love On The Edge Of Forever picks up right where book one, Love On The Edge Of Time left off. No spoilers, but the prologue was so needed and absolute perfection.
As Kylie's life continues we find her seemingly happy living her day to day life and contented with her work as her purpose in life. On one lovely fall day she decides to leave early and take a walk through Central Park. While she's walking along her attention is drawn to some yellow leaves falling all around her and while looking up at the leaves she's suddenly knocked down by a dog that's licking her face frantically. The dog's owner is calling it's name, Sheba, but to no avail. The owner, Dev, finally gets Sheba's leash in hand and pulls Sheba off from Kylie. Concerns about Kylie's clothing being ripped are voiced and introductions are made and eventually Dev gives her his business card to contact him with the repair bill. It seems interest is peaked on both their parts at this meeting but does anything come if it? Does she contact him? Oh yes, she does and you need to read this book yourself to find out how they fit together in this lifetime...and possibly a past lifetime...or more.
This is such an incredible story. I was captivated from the very beginning. This book is my personal favorite of this year 2024.
PLEASE NOTE: You must read book 1, Love On The Edge Of Time before reading this book. Trust me, you will love it too.

This is the second book of this series and shouldn’t be read as a standalone. Get ready to be taken on a journey through time and all the emotions.
My heart for Kylie. I can’t imagine losing my husband, the thought just brings me so much grief. To watch Kylie have to go through life and see her accomplishments without him there with her physically….it will rip your heart out. But I loved the way that she met a beautiful dog (Sheba) who isn’t a fan of women and her human protector (Dev).
There were a few times with Dev that I felt like he was a little pushy with Kylie. There was definitely no denying that he insta-fell for Kylie, he did give her the space she needed after their second meet up, but once he got confirmation that she was feeling it too, there was no holding him back. He did win me over when he gave her space she needed to process how their lives were connected through Jesse. Then when he did what he did for her, instead of trying to replace Jesse…he totally won me over.
It was so wild and exciting to see Dev’s reaction to Kylie’s truth and how he handled it. I loved watching them both, along with Sheba, be taken back through time to reveal the rest of their connection to eachother and to Jesse. I loved that new therapist that Kylie found and how he supported both her and Dev, while also getting to experience their truths while helping them piece together the pieces, and not use their information gathered for his own personal benefit. I loved the support of the side characters as well.
Julie A. Richman blew me away with her captivating writing and her ability to intertwine multiple stories while keeping also keeping the focus and not veering from the main storyline. She definitely had me on my tip toes and biting my nails waiting for the next piece to be connected. She brought the end of this story (which I was sad to see happen) together and had it finish in a way that left me, and will leave me, thinking about both Book One and this book for a long time after. I highly recommend reading both, it’s definitely worth it! I was provided an advanced readers copy via Wordsmith Publicity. These thoughts and opinions are my own.

Words cannot express how much I LOVED this book!!! It is a phenomenal read that captured my heart and never let it go. It is about fate, soulmates, and never-ending, transcendent love and getting to experience a "once-in-a-lifetime" love more than once in a lifetime. You must read Love on the Edge of Time before reading this book.
What an epic romance! The story is brilliant and beautifully written. The plot is detailed, intricate, and unique. The characters are amazing, well-developed, and true to life, and they touch your heart. There was great world-building where I could picture the scenes clearly in my mind and felt as if I was living the story along with the characters. I felt every intense, heartbreaking, and joyful emotion. It touched me on a soul-deep level. I hated to see it come to an end, but I was beyond grateful to have gone on this unforgettable journey with these characters. I know this book will stay with me for a long time. I cannot recommend these books enough. It was such a unique and amazing experience. Julie is such a talented author and a master at her craft. You need to experience these books. I promise you won't regret it.

When did you first discover love? Kylie found the love of her life with Jesse Winslow in "Love on the Edge of Time," only to end in tragedy once again. Love travels from present to past to present, giving us something beautiful to behold. Coincidence? Fate? In "Love on the Edge of Forever," Kylie experiences love once again.
I love books and movies that deal with timelines and past lives as the "time" angle draws me in. "Love on the Edge of Forever" is one of the most touching second-chance love stories. It is a beautiful "timeless" love story that is not simple. Fate brings about this second chance romantic tale with many layers of past experiences uncovered to know love and be loved and to find that love repeatedly. A timeless romantic love story continues in "Love on the Edge of Forever" by Julie Richman.
