The Eternal Ones by Kirsten Miller


Not too bad for a teen novel. Reincarnation is a good break from the usual vampires, werewolves, etc that inhabit teen novels these days. There is a love triangle with the devil though. ha ha.

Haven is a teenaged girl living in a small town in Tennessee. Ever since she was a little girl, she has had visions of a past life where she was a girl named Constance living in New York. Constance was in love with a boy named Ethan and Haven has a feeling that Ethan has been reincarnated too. There are a few snags preventing Haven from running off to New York to track down Ethan. The first problem is her grandmother, who claims Haven is possessed by demons and that's why she has visions. The second is Ethan's latest incarnation is Iain, a rich playboy who is suspected of murder. None of this seems to bother her as she runs off to New York and into Iain's arms. Gradually, Haven's visions reveal more memories of Constance. Constance and Ethan belonged to a secret society for people that are reincarnated. Haven visits the society and soon discovers it has some secrets as well. Caught between the lies of both the society and Iain, Haven must find out the truth before she dies like Constance did.
