"You'll know her when you see her."

Lark realizes what his father meant the night he meets Erin. The most beautiful girl he has ever seen in his life. It is love at first sight and Lark knows he wants to marry Erin who has captured his heart.

But Erin's father has other plans for his daughter. He will not allow her to marry a commoner such as Lark and he warns Lark to stay away. When Erin's father discovers that Erin and Lark have ignored him, he resorts to harsher measures and Lark finds himself cursed to live forever seeking Erin in every life she lives.

The only way the curse can be broken is with a kiss from Erin but the curse itself makes it a near impossibility for Lark to get close to Erin in this life or the next let alone get her to kiss him.

Lark eventually gives up and resigns himself to a life without Erin but the universe will not be thwarted and no-one gets to turn their back on a curse. Centuries later, Lark meets a girl he believes is Erin reincarnated.

The woman he believes is Erin knows part of his secret and fools him into accepting her as Erin reincarnated. She has her own goals and they do not involve love.

Will Lark discover the truth and will fate bring him the real Erin reincarnated? Will they be together at last and will they survive the challenges thrown at them again even if they can finally beat the curse and be together?

In Another Lifetime

Christmas morning arrived and Lark woke early. He left his home and headed to church. He found peace and calm in the Christmas carols and the fellow worshippers on the morning of Christmas. He always enjoyed going to church and often remained behind after the service finding solace in simply being quiet and praying after everyone had left. 


Today was no exception. The minister saw Lark sitting on his own after the service and approached him. 


“Merry Christmas,” the minister smiled. 


Lark stood. “Merry Christmas to you too, father,” Lark replied. 


“Are you alone?” The father asked. 


“Well the Lord is with you. Especially today. Go in peace,” the father said as he turned and headed back to the pulpit.
