Always Here
What if déjà vu is more than a strange feeling?
Ellen Shay embarks on the Stella Oceanis for Halley’s Comet Rendezvous. The Oceanis will sail to the Southern Hemisphere and be in a position to give passengers the best view of the comet when it appears. For all onboard it is a once in a lifetime event since the comet’s orbit passes Earth only once every 75-76 years. Cruise reservations were made years in advance but the reservation wasn’t originally in Ellen’s name. The reserved ticket was transferred to her as part of an estate she inherited from a dear and cherished friend.
Ellen is ambivalent about the journey but vows to enter into the spirit of the cruise with the other excited passengers just as her friend would have done. In the Oceanis’s dining room she’s seated with an eclectic mix of people which includes the famed international soloist and lyricist, Donato Cenci. Immediately after meeting Ellen many at Table 21 begin to experience perplexing episodes of déjà vu and Ellen is unsettled by a subtle whisper that darts in and out of her thoughts at the oddest moments.
Ellen’s thirty-day journey takes her far beyond the Stella Oceanis’s ports-of-call. Halley’s Comet resurrects potent memories buried in the depths of her subconscious. They rise like a Phoenix and challenge everything she has ever believed about love, life and death. Will she acknowledge a promise made far back in the eons of time? Or will she dismiss it as impossible and turn away from a chance to make an old love new again?

I had a hard time with this book holding my attention. The story of a cruise to see Haley's Comet and what happens to the heroine was a bit much.
