If you could learn the identity of your one true love-even though you will never meet- would you?Years have passed since refugees from a ruined earth took to space, eventually settling a new system of planets. Science has not only made the leaps necessary to allow time travel, but the process engineered a strange side effect-predicting your one true love.If you could save your one true love from an untimely death, would you be able to resist?Sixteen-year-old Kaia Vespasian is an apprentice to the Historians-a group charged with using time travel to document the triumphs and failures of the past-and she can't resist a peek at her long-dead soul mate in Ancient Egypt. Before she knows it, she's broken every rule in the book, and the consequences of getting caught could destroy more than just her new romance.Or would you have the strength to watch him die?But when Kaia notices a fellow classmate snooping around in a time where he doesn't belong, she suspects he has a secret of his own-and the conspiracy she uncovers could threaten the entire universe. If her experience has taught her anything, to changing history means facing the consequences. The Historians trained her to observe and record the past, but Kaia never guessed she might have to protect it- in a race across time to save her only chance at a future.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Time travel and romance rolled into a nice ball. By thecovercontessa I want to thank Bloomsbury Spark for providing me with a copy of this book to read and give an honest review. receiving this book for free has not altered my opinion or review in any way.So, I'm a fan of time travel books. And I know it takes a lot to be able to write one, so much to think about. Which is why the blurb of this book totally and completely intrigued me. Not only was it time travel, which I often associate with the future (for some unknown reason) but it was time travel into the past. And when I say past, much of it takes place in ancient times, Ceaser times. And then the neatest thing about this book, it takes place in the future. And not our future, like Back to the future, but in a world after our world has been destroyed. We are talking YA Sci-fi time travel, what could be better?Kaia is an interesting character. She's a historian, and she is dedicated to ensuring the future of her world is different from what they've seen in the past. So she jumps back into different points in time to study what went wrong and is slated to use those experiences to make sure things go right for her and the future generations. She's always pretty much walked the straight and narrow. Rarely steering from the path that's been set before her. But Kaia seems to have an itch to delve into things she shouldn't. and doesn't seem to be afraid to step outside the box. And when she's faced with the possibility of meeting her true, the one true love she will ever have, she's determined to find out about him, even if he did live B.C.E.I really liked Kaia's curiosity. Even if it meant going against everything she had ever been taught, she is still willing to search for the truth. I will say her decisions at times were rash, and really not in her best interest. And it was way too easy for her to get away with the things she did, despite the fact that she kept saying people were trusted and not much oversight was given in her time. I found it hard to believe she would not be watched more than she was given the nature of what the elders were trying to do.There seem to be three potential loves in this book. Two of which Kaia really never takes a romantic interest in because she's completely drawn to her true. But I did spend much of the book waiting to see if Kaia would change her mind and see things in the other boys she never did before. Thankfully, the love triangle, or quadrangle, did not come to fruition or I might have been done with the book before it ended.I really enjoyed the secondary characters in this book. They truly complimented Kaia. The goody goody, the one who has found her true, and, of course, the male best friend who would love to be so much more. All the characters really shape who Kaia is and how she reacts to situations.I love the idea of Kaia's brother and who he may be in the future. We learn so little about him in this book, but what we do see is important and I can tell it will intensify the plot of future books in this series.The overall plot is really interesting though I could have done with less of the romance, to be honest. I understood the need for it, since it is why Kaia chooses to travel alone when she should not. But at the same time, I just didn't feel the pull I was supposed to feel. Sure, there was perhaps an attraction to her true, but the tug she kept telling me about just didn't feel true. I feel like I could have enjoyed the story more if there had been a slow burn. And Leigh does a nice job of world building, though I'd like to see more of how Kaia's world came to being (what exactly led to the downfall of Earth as we known it).Overall, I really enjoyed the story. The writing was good and I didn't find myself bored while reading it. I wanted to know what happened, what the mystery was and why. And, in the end, I really wanted to find out more and see the outcomes of Kaia's choices. I am looking forward to the next installment in this series.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Enjoyed it a lot! By Sugar Spice Review:On the outside this potentially looks like another recipe for an irritating heap of illogically established suppressive regime topped with a special snowflake unexplainably badass heroine dystopia overdramatic annoyance. The True match trope and the surprisingly positive reviews, however, made me pick to book up and, I’m a person who’s not afraid to admit when she’s wrong, I ended up really loving this story. I guess, it has something to do with the fact that it’s not 100% dystopian, it’s walks the line, but the historical aspects, being heavily slanted towards sci-fi and the charming romance part had me forgetting that it does share some traits with my most disliked YA genre.I actually really liked the heroine, Kaia, yes, she made some selfish and questionable choices, but they were all in the scope of believable and even reasonable in her state of mind, considering all the suspiciousness in the academy, unexplainable occurrences and people close to her acting all hush-hush and making extremely questionable decisions. Plus, she was a rebel at heart and I appreciated it not coming across as forced, breaking some rules kind of came naturally to her and worked well with the setting. Her taking action, being bold and not this goody goody girl whose transactions are totally out of character, were things I enjoyed about her. I’m also truly surprised that I didn’t find her face-palm-worthy in any scene, even when she made capital errors.From other characters, I was intrigued by Kaia’s brother Jonah, the actual and initial rebel in the family, and to deepen my impatience to know more, my questions didn’t end up finding answers to the mystery of what he was really up to, at least not in the first book. Kaia’s other friends were kind of just there and for plot purposes only, at the moment, but I guess they will be given actual noticeable characteristics along in the series. Oz, the True companion of one of Kaia’s friends, was the inspiration for Katy Perry’s song “Hot and Cold,” because that’s how he came across, at least from Kaia’s perspective, I’m, however, in no way whining, because he was a total rubrics cube, intriguing and addicting, but frustrating all the same. As with Jonah, I wasn’t fully clear on what he is really up to and with whom does he actually stand.The romance between Kaia and her True match, the already over two thousand years dead Egyptian soul mate, was somewhat fairy tale-like, a tragic one, but fairy tale nonetheless. Even though, technically, their love story felt superficial and too insta-love, emotionally, it didn’t feel unreal and out of the blue. There was something natural about their connection, despite the low amount of short meetings, more kissing than talking and the humongous time and culture difference. There wasn’t much development for his character, though the author tried quite admirably to flesh him out, but it didn’t bother me since he was supposed to be this dream guy and tragic love interest. And knowing too much might tarnish the fantasy. To be totally honest, I actually rooted for another guy…Beware that this book ends with a gasp-worthy cliff-hanger, which I kind of suspected, because the topic in question had so many details off, that there was bound to be something very smelly fishy there. And voila, the end revelation filled the gaps in my suspicion, then again, it in turn was responsible for creating a million more. Oh, well, I can’t complain, because I’d gladly read more from this series.The world created for the story was excellent, the world-building was detailed, made sense, at least, when not diving in too deeply (then it didn’t, of course, anymore, to some degree) and, overall, wasn’t too crowded with information or difficult to grasp and fall into due to being too foreign or illogical in its base concept. The mystery of what shady dealings were going on in the academy and amongst the historians, unfolded very effectively, holding the tension high, and I was kept guessing with Kaia till the picture was made cleared bit by bit. The notion of one’s True match, however, pegged some questions, like how do they have the DNA of every living persona who has ever been born, but I found the idea quite romantic, entertaining and possessing a huge potential for epic star-crossed or true eternal happiness love, so I tried not to nit-pick.I was quite impressed by how authentic the historical details and backgrounds came across. Instead, as many other YA authors opt to do, the story showed and didn’t tell. The far back in time events, places and people felt real in the context of the book and I got the impression that the characters actually were in a time long before their own, not just told that and having to unquestionably believe that it’s so. Information snippets about the weather, air, clothes, buildings, politics, etc, were enough to successfully make me convinced about the exotic and historical locations, without falling to the black hole of too technical and descriptive. There has to be more than just saying the story takes place here or there, eg. with Paris as the setting, several authors I’ve read, simply mention the Eiffel Tower, and that is deemed sufficient to make the reader feel it, but more elaborate writing and appropriately created atmosphere has to be there to enforce that belief as well.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Great premise, and loved Kaia and the romance. By Brandi Leigh Kosiner I wanted to read this one because I really enjoyed the idea of knowing your true love, and the appeal of the forbidden romance aspect. I have no idea what I would do when faced with a choice of saving one man that is meant for me and the huge and unknown consequences that could come from altering the course of history. I mean without that aspect even the time travel would have appealed to me. The people from the future exploring the past in order to learn from it is intriguing. I liked Kaia, she likes her job, but she wants to do it differently. She is going back in the past to learn from the big events that shaped history. Kaia instead pays more attention to the love and hope rather than the tragic events. Even though she knows they are important, she also believes that those things are important. I wasn't sure how I would feel about the historical aspect, but it worked okay for me since it also had the futuristic aspect and it wasn't completely rooted in the ancient times to start with, it was back and forth exploring the past then back to Kaia's present (future to us though.) It explored her friendships and her family. I liked the twists in this one and there was always a lot to keep my attention. Kaia found out that her True was a man in ancient times, and she couldn't resist going to meet him. I loved their connections and interactions. It was cool how time didn't seem to matter to them, nor different cultural perspectives, just their connection and attraction. The theme of friendship was good in this one, and I liked that Kaia tried to protect her friends when she was doing something that she shouldn't. But I also liked how she did decide to ask for help eventually and let people in. Family is different on Genesis-- where they are living now. Kaia doesn't live with her parents, instead she and the other kids live in sort of boarding school aspect. They stay in dorms and the teachers and leaders of their schools help govern. But I do like that Kaia felt so close to her brother, even though he was an outlaw. The love didn't go away, and neither did the love and support with her parents even though its not a traditional family unit. Kaia realized that another student was also in the past, and she felt responsible to figure out what he was doing. She was just going back to get to know her True, but she was still breaking laws and regulations, and could effect the future. But the other student, the things he was messing with, besides seeing him chose to change the past in ways that could make a big difference. I liked how it ended, and I will definitely be continuing this series. It wrapped up certain plots, and then blew up some questions and I can't wait to see how the new will play out.Source: Bloomsbury via NetgalleyDisclaimer: I received this book as an ARC (advanced review copy). I am not paid for this review, and my opinions in this review are mine, and are not effected by the book being free.Bottom Line: Great premise, and loved Kaia and the romance.
