Across the Universe Elise Marion

Anika Butler lives a quiet, unremarkable life. Without friends, family, or a love life to keep her occupied, she spends her spare time daydreaming over the painting of a man who was born in the 1800s. When she joins the other residents of Saint's Grove to witness a rare lunar eclipse and planetary alignment, the man from the painting appears in front of her claiming to have traveled through time, and she will discover that she is anything but ordinary. When he tells her of their past lives together as lovers, Anika knows that it must be impossible ... yet strange dreams begin to feel like memories, until she can no longer deny that something within her recognizes him as her eternal soul mate. Isaac Parker lost everything when his fiancé, Aurora Barton, was murdered right before his eyes. The witch who killed her also afflicted him with a curse: he can never die, making it impossible for him to be reincarnated. When the eclipse and planetary alignment occurs, allowing him to travel through time, he returns to Saint's Grove seeking the Star Anthame, the ancient weapon that was used to curse him. With only seven days to locate the relic and break his curse, this is his only hope for finding Aurora again in his next life. He never imagines he will find her in Saint's Grove where he last saw her, now reincarnated as Anika Butler. However, a witch with a grudge will re-emerge into their lives, forcing them to fight for their futures, and for love. If the curse isn't broken, they may lose their chance at happiness together ... not just in this life, but in all the lives to come.
