Looking for a sweet, romantic tale of soulmates bound through time with a love strong enough that after 100 years, one soul is still waiting for the return of his true love? Joseph still waits patiently for his Margaret to return to him someday. His ghost walks through time unseen and unheard because of a vow he made to his wife, who died in childbirth.In modern times, Maggie has had a gut-wrenching, emotionally debilitating marriage and divorce from a narcissistic man who saw her as unappealing, overweight and embarrassing to be around. Her ego is crushed and she needs a break, a short sight-seeing trip to an old mining town in Arizona. On a tour through an abandoned mine, she sees and talks to a man who no one else can see or hear. He claims she is his wife, Margaret, reincarnated and returned to him. Is she losing her mind or is she having flashbacks to a previous life with this kind and gorgeous man? How can a living being love a ghost? How can they be together?Yesterday’s Kiss by Carly Fall is pure romantic perfection with its gentle pace, emotional tension and a heart-melting ghost who is everything his Margaret/Maggie needs and dreams of in a man. Both characters have felt the pain of loss, but Joseph has the advantage of time eternal and his love and his memories. Maggie has been through the emotional wringer and finding Joseph still doesn’t always feel real, even though she is “seeing” things that she knows really happened. Her reactions were very realistic! Ms. Falls has created a beautiful tribute to true love that is meant to be. The world she has created almost fades to the background as my focus was on the interaction of Joseph and Maggie, their words, their shared life, even a trip to the home they once lived in. If you’re looking for a sigh-worthy romance that will glide through your heart and imagination, I recommend you read Yesterday’s Kiss and leave reality behind for a short while.I received a review copy from the author in exchange for my honest review.
