What if happily ever after takes more than one lifetime?

Sarah Fuller seems to have everything. She’s the founder of a luxury fragrance company, married to a successful financial executive, raising twins, and living in a New York City penthouse overlooking Central Park.

On the day of her fortieth birthday, things start getting weird.

Sarah meets a dark, handsome stranger who feels seductively familiar. She can’t explain why she’s drawn to him, or shake the feeling that somehow, somewhere, they’ve met before.

Then an alluring psychic and her tarot cards offer an explanation Sarah never could have imagined: she may have known him in another lifetime in ancient Egypt, where she was a powerful mystic and the Pharaoh’s lover.

Is it déjà vu? A midlife crisis? A nervous breakdown?

Sarah has always been a skeptic. Her husband, her best friend, her shrink: everyone seems to think they know what’s best for her. But the more impossible it all sounds, the more something about it feels strangely right. And Sarah is determined to find out more.

As the mysteries of ancient Egypt begin to collide with her present, Sarah is forced to reconcile the life she knows with a past she can’t explain and a connection she can’t seem to ignore.

But if the past can explain the life she chose, can it also change what she chooses next?

In the Temple Shadows is the first novel in the Arcanum series, a dual-timeline story weaving contemporary Manhattan, ancient Egypt, past-life romance, and self-discovery into a tale about soulmates, destiny, and the choices that follow us from one lifetime to the next.
