3.5 suspenseful stars!! I adored how much the H loved the h. Even though it was a short read, it was impactful and the novella made me cry. There is a trigger though but I don't want to share it since it will reduce the whole effect of this PNR read.

[Celestine · Rating 3 out of 5]

Short story with paranormal ghost story and sensual detail. Confusing at first but beautiful at the end. Gorgeous cover.

[Maria Dimitrova · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's a strange story. Not at all what I expected. Most of the time I was as confused as the MC. It left me feeling sad and dejected. The story had a somewhat happy ending but still the overwhelming feeling was one of loss.

[Robin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very clever hauntingly endearing tale with ghost and paranormal elements that bring in the magical touch. The first half of the story is a bit confusing but that is done so that we are in Maura's mind. We are experiencing her confusion right along with her so as the story unravels, we become enlightened along with her. The story is one of a love that is not only forever but also strong enough to break through the unnatural forces and barriers. A short riveting story of Maura and Jack and their timeless love.

[Barbara · Rating 5 out of 5]

For Jack and Maura O'Brian they have a love that will never die. A paranormal of two lovers who get separated by death, but are given a second chance if they can connect in the right way. I enjoyed seeing them get their happy ending. Well worth reading.

[Madeleine Booth-Smits · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a short but impactful book!! I loved the mystery of finding out what was going on! And wow that ending!! I really enjoyed this book and high recommend it.

[Emily Pennington · Rating 4 out of 5]

Searching for a Memory . . .

Maura O’Brian is trapped in something like a dream world that she can’t escape. She knows only that she has to find Jack Taylor despite the fact she has no idea who he is. The reader is taken along on the experience with Maura as she unravels the mystery of Jack and we finally realize the truth.

The reader will vividly feel Maura’s confusion, panic, and desperation as she tries to break out of her entrapment and to find help. Join Maura in her mysterious and tense adventure as she struggles to escape this nightmare.

I can’t say this was one of my favorites, but it was done well.

[Judy Gittleson Hendrickson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Maura is living a repeated reality that changes and morphs into weird situations. Voices and memories scattered throughout the old house. Pieces of clues come at her when she finds pictures of the night, reliving it all in order. Jack keeps flashing into her mind.
The storyline is like GroundHog Day and Alice In Wonderland. Doors, keys, lights, photos, and more are appearing and disappearing. Loved the ending where it all comes together... just in time. Unbelievable memory that kept them together everalastingly.

True Love is Timeless
Maura O’Brian is running from something but keeps looping the same scene. Bad case of Groundhog Day only more deadly. As our heroine tries to piece the mystery together she remembers one man, Jack Taylor. Everlastingly is the term she hears but cannot remember it’s significance. It takes one trunk of pictures and a long sit down to fully remember that night. Once she does, it isn’t until she faces the full truth she gains the full picture. Tragic Sad yet hauntingly beautiful. True Love is key for this story.

[Bee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Lovely story imbued with mystery and magic.

Short story with seven chapters. Maura is trapped in some kind of dream world. She needs to find Jack even though she doesn’t remember who he is.

The story has a mysterious, dreamy quality to it. The reader discovers the truth at the same time Maura does as she unravels the mystery of Jack. The happy ending is different than any other I’ve ever read.

If you are looking for different, this might be the story for you.

Well, let me tell you, this is one heck of a short story. The book is repetitious BUT if you have faith in Michelle M Pillow, as I do, you know there is a reason & that there is a doozie right around the corner. And man was I right.
This story is sad, horrific, heartbreaking, heartwarming & romantic beyond belief. My tear ducts were on a rollercoaster. Happy, sad, happy, sad, happy & finally happy tears. And the story was worth every tissue used!
I suggest this be an immediate purchase to any fan or someone wanting to "test the waters" with Michelle M Pillow.

[Ann · Rating 5 out of 5]

Pillow has crafted a truly enchanting novella in Everlastingly. Though short, it truly is strikingly romantic – and even has some real sexual heat! Though the story can be a bit confusing at first, the narrative works brilliantly to bring the reader closer to the heroine, and to enhance the atmosphere of the story. I can’t say too much about the story without spoiling the read, but I can say without hesitation that readers will not be disappointed in this stunning little novella.

Michelle M. Pillow knows how to write a story that keeps you on the edge of your seat trying to figure it out. I loved how Jack loved Maura enough to give up his life for her. This book kept me on the edge trying to figure out what was going on. Maura was stuck in a loop and she had to remember her past to get out of it and be with her love. She thinks she is in a bad dream but knows she needs to get free.

[Lesley · Rating 4 out of 5]

Was not sure about this book when I started reading. I got totally confused but was glad I stuck with it. This was a very short read and really needs to be read at one sitting to get the full impact of the story. The main themes are who is Jack and what relation is he to Maura? and what kind of nightmare is Maura living in?

This was a very confusing story at first, Maura has no idea what has happened to her and is suffering a loop, like ‘Groundhog Day’. It is such a clever short story that includes a lot for such few pages. It’s a wonderful story of true love everlasting.
I voluntarily received and reviewed an ARC copy of the book.

Heartbreakingly Beautiful

I starting tearing up at 50% of the way through this book, and was fully streaming tears by the end. This story is such a sweet one about everlasting love and heartbreak and love in the hereafter. If you’re looking for a novella that will make your heart warm and your eyes tear up, this book brings that in spades.

[Shayay · Rating 5 out of 5]

Short, lovely, bittersweet story with some intriguing mystery. Really enjoyed it! Love the opening to the story; Maura is running through the snow in the dark trying to escape something. An old house appears, but things are definitely odd. The name Jack calls to Maura, but she doesn’t know why. Entertaining, touching read.

[Whitewolfaw · Rating 5 out of 5]

Different, wasn't sure where it was going, but liked the happy ending! Tragedy, sadness, light, discovery, lovers stuck in a loop. Glad it was a novella, it was a quick read. As always, anything written by Michelle Pillow is worth it!

[Amanda Bhear · Rating 5 out of 5]

I am a little short on time, I love it. It is an ongoing trial for her to make her way to a man she should know but doesn't remember. Then when she finds all the clues to finally make her way to him, she discovers she is a ghost. It has been about 30 years like this off and on. Now they may finally be together. It was a good mystery.

[C 10 · Rating 5 out of 5]

The ending is good, but there is a lot of confusing story to get there. It does eventually make sense, stick with it and enjoy!
