Good one! Read it - Anonymous - Sep-11-2008   

Excellent read. This story kept me up up all night. It grips up with the possibilites and doesn't let you go. The combination of mystery, time travel, and consequences, will glue you to your seat and eyes to the screen. Well done Jannene. I can hope for a sequel, but this is a complete story in itself. READ THIS. - nljacksn - Sep-12-2008   

I was really looking forward for more stories from the writer who wrote the excellent tale obsessions and I was not disappointed with this one.

Cast: Alec, Kellen, Jillian, Chasen, Brian, Brent, Los, Elane, Patrick
Honors/Awards:  Perennial Favorite Award: #35 in 2004, #55 in 2007    
This is a well crafted, intriguing tale set against the backdrop of movie star Jillian Young, whose life has been and fraught with tragedy, and unbeknownst to many, dark secrets and their damaging consequences. Victoria Senett, whose father marries Jillian, becomes an integral part of the drama. On Jillian's behest, Vickie tries to interceed on her behalf with her daughter, only to rediscover and old flame and begin to unravel all the secrests, including the love she thought she'd lost.
I read this story some time ago on another web site. I highly recommend taking the time to read it. Once I began, I was hooked and could not put it down until I had all the twists figured out. Ms. Brownell tells an excellent story of love, survival, mystery, family, and forgiveness. You will certainly not be disapointed by this entertaining and well-written piece. - S. Lee - Jun 4th, 2003   

I've been reading this book again lately and I was hooked. Just like the first time when I couldn't stop reading and finished it in one weekend. There are some many twists and turns that you will think "oh, i figured it out" more than once just to read you're totally wrong on the next page. It always reminds me on classic Hollywood drama from the old days with all it's charme. It has everything from mystery, fame, love, family and life. One of my all time favorit books! - Mindwalker78 - Mar 5th, 2004   

Absolutely wonderful story.Would deserve to printed at once. - letterwolf - Mar 10th, 2004   

When I stumbled upon this story, I had no idea how prfound it would be. Simply on eof the best I have read period. I enjoy the fact that it's not a 'nice and neat' story and contains many intense depictions of survival of violence without being sensational. Amazing! - BkFaith - Mar 14th, 2004   

This piece is masterfully done. Each character has depth but does not inapropriately cross over the boundries created by the first person narrative. I was moved by this piece and only sorry that it was over when it was done. The mystery unfolds with the reader sometimes a half a step ahead of the narrator, and somehow that's just enough to prepare us to survive the whirlwind. The whole thing is honest and tragic and sweet all at once. I highly reccomend it. - Roxy - Apr 15th, 2004   

Just read this again and can't beleve I didn't recommend it before. Great story! READ & ENJOY!! - cam - Sep-10-2007   

This is an amazing novella that I have read at least 4 times now. Surprisingly enough I still find myself reading until the wee hours of the morning because I can't to put it down. I definite must read!
I wish the author would share some more of her works with us. I guess in the mean time we'll just have to keep re-reading the masterpieces that she has graced us with.
- Shadowboxer - Sep-19-2007   

WOW! Fabulous read. All the other statements summon it nicely! Keeps me wondering, why didn't I discover this earlier? And where is the author? Thanks for the recommendation Shadowboxer! - Dutch - Sep-22-2007

Every life has one-that one decision that changed everything. Alison Harte never thought she would get a chance to make that one decision again.
Wonderful! I love that it had pace and great romance, but felt realistic and grown up. I would LOVE to see a sequel and find out what the future holds for these two. - Anonymous - Jan-08-2013   

This is a must read. Very good story line about two people reconnecting. - EC - Jan-08-2013

Excellent. Loved it. Ms. Brownell hooked me from beginning to end. A well thought out, mature themed story. Wonderful depth with intriging characters. Wishing for a sequel to see where the story would go next. Highly recommended - Colorado fan - Jan-12-2013   

Well written, well paced, a good one ! Sequel please ?.. - She-ra - Jan-12-2013   

I am so in love with Janneen Brownell's writing. Found her a few years ago and her stories are right at the top of my list of favs. I have been searching for more for years, sadly with no success. Yippee!! This one is so very satisfying. I want to meet these characters and spend some time mingling in their lives. It's about choices made, no regrets, and how time does not always erase your feelings. Makes me wonder if JB just spent a few years living this herself. It catches you right out away and won't let you stop. Thank you, Thank you for coming back to us! and I can't wait for more! - Anonymous - Jan-12-2013   

Possible **** SPOILER ALERT **** I have enjoyed Janneen's other stories and this one is no exception. It takes you on an entertaining and enjoyable ride. I hope a sequel is planned not only to take us into the future but to fill a few minor plot holes in the back story. - rleef - Jan-17-2013   

Very good read. Wish there would be more... - M.E. - Jan-23-2013   

Goodness...this story is highly recommended. It is such a mind blowing. I cant stop myself reading it even though I have other important things to do!! Janneen Brownell is really something to have written seems to be so surreal story like this!! Go on..read Now Or Forever. - eden - Jan-24-2013

Absolutely wonderful story. I hope there is going to be a sequel! - Jennifer - May 7th, 2004   

Psicology meets investigation, with action in the middle. A group of friends losing one of their one to sinking insanity over a sad twist of fate. A new comer igniting the fallen oneĈs awakening. New lovers lust with mixed emotions. Anger and friendship on the field.Love it! But then again I'm a sucker for stories portraying a good group of friends; besides, thereĈs a really hot couple. In simple adjectives: sexy (very very!), funny, deep, unexpected, great. It left me reading all night long. IĈm *really* crossing my fingers to see a new story with these characters (all of them!). - Maria - Jan 11th, 2005

This tale has lots of drama, angst and friends. If you're looking for a more traditional romance, this story isn't for you and you'll be disappointed. But if you like drama, angst and friends in a well-written story, give it a try. - Stacia - Nov-07-2013
