After an accident, one she shouldn’t have walked away from, Lexi’s life finally begins. She meets Dez, a new student with the most beautiful eyes she’s ever seen. And since gazing into them, Lexi has had vivid waking dreams that pull her back through time, and into the warm embrace of a mysterious stranger—a stranger who becomes all too familiar. When offering an explanation for her detailed visions, Dez changes her world forever with two simple words: Soul mates.
For the first time in her life, Lexi feels safe and complete. But lingering in the shadows is the embodiment of evil, coveting the light within her. He’s a threat to Lexi’s very existence, and to a love that has transcended time. ~~synopsis from Goodreads
My thoughts on Amber Eyes ~~
Once again, I have to admit, I was first drawn to this book by the awesome cover. Somebody out there in the book world knows what they are doing when they design covers.
And then I also have to admit that I loved this book! I have stated before that I am rather new to this whole YA/Paranormal book world ~ and I am lovin' it, BTW! Well, Amber Eyes took me into a world that I have not visited yet - the world of entwined souls. Jolyn did a wonderful job of explaining the way this world works and what can happen/should happen to entwined souls. It's very interesting to think about that topic, hmmm, soul mates through the ages.
I got very wrapped up in Lexi's world and her confusion to get it all figured out. The reader is introduced to other characters in Lexi's life - more entwined souls? This is a series, so it could happen.We do get a little glimpse of what is to come in Book 2 and I can hardly wait to read it.
Love this part ~~ 'Souls are forever; they travel from life to life, over and over again. The soul encompasses the core of a person. It's like a vessel encapsulating a person's identity - who they truly are. In each life, a soul can be altered by passions and fears. When that happens they imprint on the soul, and will always be a part of it. These are then carried from life to life as well.'
