When you recognize your destiny, you’ll know what to do.
Paige Delaney is coming to terms with her identity as a bloodline witch. Although she’s one of the most powerful of her line, she struggles to access her magical gifts.
Returning to the Wiccan bonfire, she receives a mystical vision of a monk attacking a hooded figure, and she knows she must pursue it. She travels to France to find the enigmatic bookseller who introduced her to the sacred text that started it all. With his mentorship, and the mysterious Stone of Time, she time-travels to 14th-century Avignon on a daring mission to rescue the Herbarium.
There, she meets the Companion who is attempting to save the life of a young man, but risks falling into a trap set by the Papal counsel.
Overwhelmed, Paige fears her tenuous grasp on her powers will fail.
And when fate reunites her with her timeless love, Paige must make a heart-wrenching choice—
Return to the present, or remain and leave behind everything she knows and holds dear.
Helen’s thoughts: 4/5
Paige is still adjusting to the knowledge that she is a powerful ancestral witch when she receives a vision that sends her on an adventure through time to 13th century France. There she meets a man who has a deep connection to her, but she doesn’t know why.
With Armand, she attempts to save the mystical book, the Herbarium, and right some wrongs in the process.
I loved the cosmic hacker, and his shennanigans to ensure Paige travelled alone.
An enjoyable read, though I found it difficult to really connect to the characters. Being told how people feel instead of experiencing it removes you from that immediacy of immersing yourself in the story.
If you love historical fiction with a touch of magic and time travel, then this is the book for you.
