When Life Falls to Pieces, Answers Lie in the Space Between

Leni Drago can't make a smart decision on her own, according to her mother anyway--the few times she's tried resulted in disaster. When her uncle sends her on a dance tour in Italy to find her real self, she returns to an empty home and any evidence of his existence wiped out. Then things get even stranger, like the mysterious appearances of Jeric Winters--inked, pierced and a hit-'em-and-quit-'em type. He's one decision that should be easy for Leni. Or is he?

Jeric doesn't do girlfriends. Unless they're someone else's. He left the fighting cage and modeling for a reason, and girls who want more than a night of fun are distractions he doesn't need. Especially when they come with as much baggage as Leni carries. But he can't shake the gut feeling that he needs to know her. All of her.

To discover the truth behind their connection and their ties to a journal from 1989, they must face painful secrets from their pasts. And they must do so quickly because their own existences are falling to pieces.

Two love stories, one mystery and a paranormal twist that readers call "mind blowing." This first part of The Book of Phoenix takes you on a heart-wrenching ride as you discover the answers that lie in The Space Between

My thoughts

I read this book as part of the Curses Fates and soul Mates series and I am so glad I did, I have never read a Kristie Cook book before but I devoured every word and having read this one book she is already classed amongst my favourite authors.

Kristie effortless tells the story of two sets of soul mates one in the present another in the past but both connected far more than Leni and Jeric realise.

Jeric is certainly not the type of guy Leni would usually go for, she is not too big on the one night stand types yet she is undeniable drawn to him despite her best efforts. Jeric too cant shake the feeling of wanting to be with and protect Leni, together they set off on the journey to learn more about why they have being pulled together.

I loved trying to piece together the puzzle and was pleasantly surprised that it was not at all predictable I was kept guess right up to the very end. 

I don't want to say too much and give away any details/spoilers you will have to read it yourself but I will say the twists and turns and the whirlwind of emotions make this book a must read. I will most definitely be reading the rest of this series.
