Amy McAuley has a new site and an upcoming debut novel, Over And Over You (Roaring Brook, 2005), that sounds tremendously promising. Here's the catalog copy:
"I've been in love with the same boy for a thousand years. That's weird, especially since I'm only seventeen, and I can barely hold a guy's interest to the end of a five-minute conversation. Don't ask me how I've kept the same boyfriend for a millenium."
If a psychic told you about a past-life love, would you believe her? For seventeen-year-old Penny Fitzsimmons, the answer is easy. No way.
But then her nightmares begin. Strange voices interrupt her thoughts. Coincidences mount.
What if there were things that even the psychic didn't know? What if she told you about a thousand years of love, but left out a thousand years of betrayal and tragedy? What if it were up to you to shape the future, before history had a chance to repeat itself? What if your best friend's life depended on it?
Penny Fitzsimmons is about to find out.
