Return Once More (The Historians, #1)



Return Once More

by Trisha Leigh


Publication date: September 29th, 2015

From Goodreads:

If you could learn the identity of your one true love—even though you will never meet— would you?

Years have passed since refugees from a ruined earth took to space, eventually settling a new system of planets. Science has not only made the leaps necessary to allow time travel, but the process engineered a strange side effect—predicting your one true love.

If you could save your one true love from an untimely death, would you be able to resist?

Sixteen-year-old Kaia Vespasian is an apprentice to the Historians—a group charged with using time travel to document the triumphs and failures of the past—and she can’t resist a peek at her long-dead soul mate in Ancient Egypt. Before she knows it, she’s broken every rule in the book, and the consequences of getting caught could destroy more than just her new romance.

Or would you have the strength to watch him die?

But when Kaia notices a fellow classmate snooping around in a time where he doesn’t belong, she suspects he has a secret of his own—and the conspiracy she uncovers could threaten the entire universe. If her experience has taught her anything, to changing history means facing the consequences. The Historians trained her to observe and record the past, but Kaia never guessed she might have to protect it— in a race across time to save her only chance at a future.

What an intriguing concept -- time travel with the past being more important, if I read this right? Here's mine: http://editingeverything.com/blog/2015/09/02/wow-you-too-can-have-a-body-like-this/

This one is new to me, as well! "Doing the right thing" vs. self gain for teenagers is always a great trope, and then to toss time travel - WOW!!

Great pick!!
