I expected a normal day when my parents picked my baby sister and I up from the daycare I volunteered at. Everything was how it was supposed to be as my parents talked about world events and politics, and my baby sister bounced in her seat to an unfamiliar beat. And then the end of the world began. And I was left alone, with no family, no one to help me survive, in a world full of monsters. I was left with questions that would only be answered at the end of this. Was I going to survive this? Or was I going to die and become like the rest of them?

When Mollie starts to prefer the dreams she's having to the painful reality of life, she's forced to choose between embracing a fantasy or the man she loves. ***** Since she was seven, Mollie Cutright has known two truths: she loves Howard Flynn and her dreams are the most magical part of her life. Each day she suffers at the hands of her abusive parents, but each night she is surrounded by a loving family who call her by a different name. Growing up in 1930's Virginia, no one has patience for a girl who might be mad, so Mollie strives to keep her dreams (and how often they intrude on her reality) a secret. But when her secret comes out, Mollie is sent to an asylum, though not before she and Howard are secretly engaged. It is at the asylum she discovers the dreams are echoes of her past lives. She's an immortal, if she makes a journey to claim her heritage. The problem is, if she continues down this path, she can never see Howard, the love of her life, again.
