Synopsis: "Jenny Kramer knows she isn't normal. After all, not everyone can see the past lives of people around them. When she befriends Ben Daulton, resident new boy, the pair stumbles on an old music box with instructions for 'mesmerization' and discover they may have more in common than they thought. Like a past life. Using the instructions in the music box, Ben and Jenny share a dream that transports them to Romanov Russia and leads them to believe they have been there together before. But they weren't alone. Nikolai, the mysterious young man Jenny has been seeing in her own dreams was there, too. When Nikolai appears next door, Jenny is forced to acknowledge that he has traveled through time and space to find her. Doing so means he as defied the laws of time, and the Order, an ominous organization tasked with keeping people in the correct time, is determined to send him back. While Ben, Jenny and Nikolai race against the clock-and the Order-the trio discovers a link that joins them in life-and beyond death."

Review: To start off with, I received this from Negalley in exchange for an honest review. Anyway, I honestly can't decide whether I fully enjoyed this book or not. The writing style was nice and so was the plot, but certain parts of it just seemed so unnecessary, I won't say any as I don't want to give any spoilers, but those moments for me just seemed to bring it down slightly. The plot had so much potential and the characters were actually written in quite well and Nikolai, Jenny and Ben were just done so well. The plot though was really unique, it's quite interesting that it was done about Romanov Russia and not something everyone probably knows more about, like Nazi Germany. A lot of research must have gone into it which I do fully admire. I'm just so stuck with what to say, I feel as if I've written everything that is needed to be said already but the review needs to be longer, a few sentences isn't going to cut it which is basically why I'm rambling and repeating myself. I apologise if it's annoying you. What more is there to possibly say? Well, maybe I can comment on the cover. The cover is quite nice, it does seem to give it a bit of a fantasy or contemporary (which the book sort of is..) look though, but is nice either way.

Rating: 3/5 Stars
