I was lucky enough to get the chance to read "Intractable Souls" by Tricia Daniels.  This book kept me on my toes, made me cry, made me laugh, and at the end, made me want to scream.The main characters in this book are Ethan O'Connell and Olivia James.  From the start of the book you understand that their souls have been connected throughout time.  If you believe that everyone has one true soulmate (or even if you don't), then this book is proof that there is one soulmate for everyone out there.From the minute that they layed eyes on each other, they felt it, a connection that seemed to transent time.  Actually before meeting each other, they dreamed of each other.  As the story progresses, they continue to have shared dreams of a life and a future together, but there are problems.Ethan has legal issues.  He is accused of abusing his ex-girlfriend.  He also has anger issues.  Olivia has trust, self confidence, and emotional issues due to an abusive ex-boyfriend who beat her serverly and left her for dead.  I know, you would think that they are the most unlikely two people on the planet to get together simply for these reasons, but here is the thing.  They balance each other.  When Ethan is with Olivia, he temper and anger are managable, and when Olivia is with Ethan, she is more open, feels more stable and safer than she has ever felt in her life.Don't get me wrong, there will be times in this book that Ethan screws up so badly that you want to punch him (trust me I wanted to reach through the pages of this book and choke him at some points), however there is a protective nature about him that makes you want to forgive him.  Olivia makes her share of mistakes as well, but given her past experiences, you understand why she acts the way she does.Ok, now for the screaming.  I loved this book, could not put it down, was both disappointed and excited to see the end of the book drawing near......and then the cliff-hanger!  UGH!  The book just stopped, making me want to scream "NO!"  Ok, so I hope that there will be a sequel, because I really need to know what happens next.I really enjoyed everything about this book.  It was fast paces, the characters were belivable, and some of the situations were very funny.  Yes, I even enjoyed the cliff-hanger.  I would recommend this book to every hopeful romantic out there.
