Publisher's Summary

What happens to us after we die? Chris Nielsen had no idea, until an unexpected accident cut his life short, separating him from his beloved wife, Annie. Now Chris must discover the true nature of life after death.

But even Heaven is not complete without Annie, and the divided soul mates will do anything to reach each other across the boundaries between life and death. When tragedy threatens to divide them forever, Chris risks his very soul to save Annie from an eternity of despair.

Prepare to Cross over.

I have read many accounts of survival/life after earthly death - and this book coincides with many of the accounts. And how love can transform our lives through many incarnations. Very interesting book, detailed on his account off spiritual cities, a.k.a. Summerland as well, as the power of love transcending lifetimes.

Deep

This book is a great story set apart from the movie.
I’m curious about some of the other things though…the dog and the birds…

Worth it

Its definitely worth it if ur interested in anything to do with the afterlife. Narration is fine maybe quiet in a chapter or 2 but does the job. Story is a love story, cliche at best about 2 so called soulmates

It was alright
