About The Dream:
Lynne cannot shake her feelings of dread; her dreams tell her she is making a terrible mistake, she must not marry Adam. But, how can she believe the dream? Lynne and Adam have shared their lives for three years now. She is certain she loves him.
It is not that love, which her dream warns against.
It doesn't matter that she loves this man she will soon marry. If she marries him, the voice in her dream says her soul mate will die. Her true love will perish.
Soon, Lynne's world is transformed and becomes almost unrecognisable, except for the déjà vu. Time doesn't seem to mean much anymore, and things are not quite as they seem. As her world spins out of control, Lynne must sort out what's real and what isn't to fulfill her destiny.

Free book: Come Back to Me, by Thomma Lyn Grindstaff
To celebrate Valentine's Day, Thomma Lyn Grindstaff is giving away her latest release, a love story, Come Back to Me. You can grab a free copy on Amazon worldwide today and tomorrow!
The book is a time travel romance novel about a modern-day singer/songwriter who travels back in time to fall in love with her hunky concert pianist mentor.
Thomma is a talented author. I always enjoy her books and stories. I invited her to join us for book 5 in the Mind's Eye Series, and am happy that she agreed. She's written two brilliant stories for that anthology. I'll have more news about that book soon.
About the book:
For Annasophia and Maestro, their love is ageless, and music is their door through time.
Annasophia Flynn is a young, classically-trained pianist and singer-songwriter who enjoys a special bond with Wilhelm Dahl, her older mentor and teacher whom she affectionately calls Maestro. Maestro is terminally ill, and Annasophia must come to grips with the fact that she’ll have to say goodbye to him soon.
But not so fast. Annasophia receives a mysterious email to which is attached a photo of her standing by the side of a virile and much-younger Maestro, years before she was born and during the height of his fame and power as a concert pianist. Either somebody’s doing some serious Photoshopping, or Annasophia traveled — or will travel — back in time, meaning that there’s more to her relationship with Maestro than meets the eye.
She visits Maestro in the hospital and shows him the photo. When he talks about a mysterious door and hums a few bars of a romantic Rachmaninoff concerto much beloved by them both, she is compelled to go home and play the piece on her piano. The concerto indeed turns out to be a door back through time, where she meets the younger Maestro, and they fall in love.
But staying in younger Maestro’s time proves tricky. For one thing, he has a son, who will never be conceived or born if Annasophia stays and changes things. She starts to second guess herself and tries to go back to her own time, only to find, each time, that the timeline as she has known it has been altered. For another thing, Maestro’s very elegant and cunning ex-wife, Elena, is determined to get him back and makes up her mind to do everything she can to send Annasophia back to her own timeline for good, where she will have to say goodbye to Maestro forever.

Book Review: Come Back To Me, by Thomma Lyn Grindstaff
Come Back to Me by Thomma Lyn GrindstaffMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is a well written, entertaining novel that kept me interested. I enjoyed the time travel aspect and think the author did a great job with this complex storyline. We follow Annasophia backwards and forwards in time between 1973 and 2010, as her relationship with her music teacher takes an unexpected turn when he is close to death. A tale that will keep you turning the pages to find out what happens next. Ultimately, it's a love story, and quite a passionate one. Thomma Lyn Grindstaff is a talented author who has her own unique style. Worth reading.
