Review: We all have a path
Rating: 5 out of 5

When I first started reading this book, I was expecting just a romance novel - just something to enjoy on a Fall day reading on my porch swing under my favorite maple tree. To say that I was pleasantly surprised by how much more this book truly was to me is an understatement. Yes, this is the story of two soul mates who find each other under strange and difficult circumstances, but it is also a story to make you think about your own life and how much of it we actually choose vs. how much of a path is already laid out for us to follow. I can relate to much of this book as I have followed my own path in life that I had known and voiced to my mother at the age of 14. It was eerily accurate and at the end of that journey (I was 40 at the time) I too was led to my soul mate. I don't wonder if this author simply brings to light that this ability to know and find the person we were always meant to love and be loved by in return is within each and every one of us.It wasn't until close to the end of the book that I realized I had read another work by this author, also based on real life occurrences for him, which made this book even more interesting and poignant for me. I can easily see how the two stories intertwine as apart of the same path, though it would not be obvious at first, unless to say that some things in life have to happen to make others possible.The book is well written and for me it was captivating. I read it very quickly since I could not get enough of the story as events occurred. It will captivated and move you, and perhaps it will also turn your thoughts inward to give you a better understanding of your own private world.
