Stain (My Soul to Wake) by Tara Oakes


My Soul to Wake is now available for pre-order for 0.99 cents! Make sure to get it now before it goes up to its regular price of $2.99! You can find teasers and the trailer as well as the synopsis below!



Witchcraft.
Reincarnation.
True love.

These are the things of legend. Unexplained, some even say impossible, but nonetheless prevalent in stories and tales from all cultures and in every land from the beginning of time. What if there is something to it? What if there is an explanation behind the mysteries and bedtime stories? Something beyond words?

SALEM, MASSACHUSETTES 1692

She was taken from him in the cruelest way... condemned, sentenced and punished out of fear of the unknown. How is he supposed to live without her? How can he go on knowing that in this life, by the natural order of things, they will never be together? There's only one thing to do... only one option that will bring them together again.
SALEM , MASSACHUSETTES TODAY

Amelia is taken on a weekend excursion with her best girlfriends to let loose, relax and have a little fun. What harm is there in a little vacation? It's not like the legends, the haunted history of the place can scare them away. It's all harmless fun.

Or so she thought.

Something seems familiar about the town. The trees, the winds, the feel of everything. Her ever present nightmares have become more intense within the limits of the old historical setting. She's prepared to write off the whole trip as nothing more than a case of her mind running away with the sensationalized magic here. When she meets a handsome stranger who's eager to know her in a way no one else can, she begins to think there may be something more to this place, something more to him.

Will has been waiting, biding his time, and praying that she'll come back. He's broken the natural order of things to possibly find her again, weaving their way through the years until they can be together again. He knows he may never find her, but he can't risk not trying. This place calls to her, just as it did to him. It will bring her back home. It will bring her back to him.

What's 300 years when it comes to true love? He's prepared to wait an eternity if he has to, just to see her, hold her, kiss her again.. to make her remember what was stolen from them so long ago. To make her remember who she is, the power she possesses and the love they swore to each other.
And don’t forget to join the Release Game! It will go from March 19th until Release Day. There will be prizes galore, including daily prizes! You can join the fun here: My Soul To Wake Event

Review:

My Soul to Wake is, without a doubt, the must read of 2015. I couldn't finish it quickly enough. I was hooked from the moment the history of the Salem Witch trials made an entrance.  I couldn't put this book down and shamefully admit to ignoring my children to finish it. Tara Oakes is simply amazing!  I have to convince myself to not read again right away because I know my kids need mommy time. There are a few grammatical errors that take nothing away from smooth flowing prose that has elicited such excitement from me. It's not often I find myself this intrigued in a story so when i do I promise it's worth it. The romance and history absolutely swept me away. The personalities of the characters are well written. I adored the female protagonist and the male prognostic stole my heart. If you're looking for magic, romance, and epic plot twist, look no further!I'm ready for the second installment asap please!
