From Goodreads

If you could change the past, would you?

How far would you go to save the person you love?
Luna is about to do everything she can to save her mother's life.
Even if it means sacrificing her own.

My thoughts

My thanks to the Publishers via NetGalley for the opportunity to read this in exchange for an honest review. I gave this a 3 stars or 6/10.

I have read quite a few of Rowan Coleman's books in the past and the majority of them I have enjoyed. However, I loved the premise of this story about Luna, Pia and their mother. How the future and past intermingled with one another to relate this time travel story. I was a little disappointed though with the execution of it.

I so wanted to really enjoy it, but my enjoyment of it was marred due to several inconsistencies along the way, that could have been overcome with some better editing. The reader is steered in certain directions, which isn't always a bad thing but I did have my suspicions that all wasn't going to be as it seemed. Call me a cynic or maybe I was just able to read between the lines.

This story has divided readers with many completely entranced by it and then those of us on the other side of the divide. Grab a copy for yourself and see which side you will be on.
