When We Do Meet Again

by Hollie Van Horne

When We Do Meet Again ~ Brilliant Chicago surgeon, Dr. Stephen Templeton, needed a sabbatical to combat his overwhelming depression. A drive down River Road in Vacherie, Louisiana -- outside New Orleans -- promised to be just what the doctor ordered to relieve his stress, when a ruined antebellum mansion beckoned for him to purchase and restore it. That's when he met her. The ghost of its former mistress, Isabella Durel, who was murdered December 25, 1838 -- in this, her plantation home. It wasn't long before he found her portrait and fell in love with her yet only days before he found her husband's painting and realized that he was the reincarnation of Emile Durel! Can Stephen give her the second chance at life and love for which she's yearned for over a hundred years? Can he find sanity in her loving embrace? Can he find a murderer and reverse her fate before it's too late? Only if Time Travelers Incorporated can work their magic and send him through the time tunnel so that he may return to his wife and his life as Emile Durel circa 1838.

I heard a lot of good reviews about this book, both from Amazon reveiwers and fellow fans of time travel fiction. I guess I must have missed something because I thought this book was really awful. It was contrived, the characters weren't likable or entertaining, the time travel was mildly entertaining but the scenes with a ghost read like a 12 year old wrote them. It surprises me not in the least that this was a self published novel. It could definitely have benefited from an editor. I did finish it mostly because it's very short. I wouldn't recommend it though, unless you just have some time you want to throw away and wish you could get back.

Fun Read! I especially enjoyed the time travel and historical side of this book. The ghostly encounters are entertaining as well.

I couldn't put this book down. I was truly entertained.
Great "love scenes".
