My Review:
This book is about a girl named Amy, who moves from her big city life in Settle to live with her aunt in the country. Starting her senior year at a new high school, putting the pain of a broken relationship behind her and starting fresh. Hoping that things will be different and that she could love again and be loved in return. “Different”.. Different was Henry, a teenage  boy Amy meets in the clearing behind her Aunt Mae’s  house. Henry dresses differently, talks differently and treats her better than any guy she’s ever known. She’s also starting to fall in love with him. But Amy is stunned  when she finds out just how... different Henry  really is. Because on his side of the clearing it’s still the year 1944. By some miracle, Henry and his family are stuck in the past, saving them of the tragedy that will strike them in the future. Amy’s crossing over to Henry's  side, brings him more happiness than he’s ever known.  But her presence also threatens to destroy his safe existence. 
 This touching tale is about falling in love, finding strength, and having the courage to make your own destiny.  Two teens  living decades apart, form a bond that will change  their lives forever...  And learn that true love, can be truly magical.  


My Thoughts:


- The cover is to die for! I love this book.  Another Heather Davis book I  really enjoyed.  This book made me- smile, laugh, and cry it was that good. 


- The characters- Amy and Henry,  were amazing and the relationship that they had with one another was so sweet that it made me cry. When Amy had to leave Henry for good to protect him and his family. 


-The plot and story-line in this book was  very well laid out, it had a great feel to it.. Like you could be right there with Amy and Henry... I definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants a sweet fun and light read. You will love this book...


And I give this book 5/5 stars...
