BLURB:
Time is a cruel thief…unless you can steal it back.

As a neurologist, Nick Reilly believes everything can be explained by science. 
But he can't explain her—Quinn Stewart, an irresistible patient who knows things about him she shouldn't. And insists that at some point, she was his wife. 

Something else he can't explain: he remembers her too. 

Quinn wakes each morning remembering new details of the life they shared. She's desperate for the dreams to stop. With each one, she finds herself craving what she had with Nick more than the life—and the fiancé—she already has. 

Nick and Quinn share an attraction neither can deny, but one that might destroy everything.

Just like it did before.



REVIEW: 
Elizabeth O'Roark is a new to me author and I am utterly blown away by her writing in this story. This book caught me by COMPLETE surprise! I am still shocked by how much I LOVED it! A book friend of mine read it and insisted that I do the same, so I took the chance. I went in blind. I had ZERO idea of what to expect and I don't know if that lent to my discovery and inevitable love for this book or not. Maybe it added a layer to the mystery, but all I know with 100% certainty, is that I wholeheartedly LOVED THIS BOOK! 

I am not a fan of insta-love stories, but this book was my exception because their love for each other was MORE THAN insta-love, it was a timeless love that was ingrained within their souls and it was undeniable from the very beginning. The connection between Nick and Quinn was utterly PALPABLE. I could literally FEEL the desire between them. I could feel EVERY emotion that flowed through these characters with each memory or encounter between them. 
"Every day, you and I are witnessing the impossible. We're having the same dreams, for God's sake. You know things you couldn't possibly know, and from the moment I met you, it felt like you were..." 
"It felt like I was what?" 
"Mine,"I replied. 

This is the type of book that literally captures your attention from the prologue. This book was "unputadownbable". Each chapter built and developed the storyline and characters deeper. I fell hard for this couple with each chapter read. I was addicted to their undeniable connection. I needed to know how their mysterious timeless love story would play out. The writing was breathtaking and absolutely unique. This duet has the potential to become my top favorite time traveling romance. Rebecca has laid the foundation for a phenomenal story and I believe with the direction she's taking this mysterious and unpredictable story, she can execute it to it's full potential. My theories and endless and I can't wait to see how it all plays out. "I don't know how many lives I've lived with him, but it feels a little unfair that I can't live this one with him too." 

I love when I can find authors that can create stories that go beyond the realm of possibilities and make them also realistic to their created world. PARALLEL was that type of book. It was "supernatural", but yet I was able to follow along with the stories as new plot layers were uncovered. This book becomes a literal escape from my reality because in real life this couldn't happen, but while reading this book, I sure wish it was! I will be telling every book lover that will listen to me to read this book! It has definitely jumped to my top reads list of 2019!

5 stars!

BLURB:
The stunning conclusion to Parallel.

Someone has torn them apart in the past, and she plans to do it again…

As Nick and Quinn piece together the truth about the life they once shared, they discover it was much deeper and darker than they ever imagined. In order to keep history from repeating, Quinn will need to master her unusual gifts—but that means admitting to herself and to Nick why she stopped using them in the first place.

He may never forgive her when he learns the truth, but Quinn is running out of options—because the clock is ticking, and it’s no longer just her life that hangs in the balance
