New York Times bestseller David Arnold returns with a heartfelt love story about two teens whose souls find each other across the ages—perfect for fans of Nina LaCour and Matt Haig.
Evan Taft has his future mapped out: take a gap year in Alaska, look after his little brother and single mother, and continue therapy to cope with his father’s abandonment. But when his mother receives an unexpected diagnosis, Evan’s plans begin to unravel. Amid the turmoil, he starts hearing something no one else can—a song, sung by a mysterious voice.
Shosh Bell has big dreams. As a high school theater star, she’s set to attend a performing arts college in LA, destined for stardom. But her world darkens when a drunk driver claims her sister’s life, leaving Shosh with nothing but emptiness—and a faint voice singing in her ear.
Beyond all this, transcending time and space, a celestial bird weaves together the lives of strangers: from an escaped convict in 19th century Paris to a Norwegian cosmonaut in low-earth orbit, something ancient and enduring is at play, connecting Evan and Shosh across lifetimes. With lyrical prose and original songs (written and recorded by the author), “I LOVED YOU IN ANOTHER LIFE” delves into the timeless nature of love and the idea that some souls are destined to be together—yesterday, today, and forever.
