"A young witch is cursed to relive a doomed love affair through many lifetimes, as both troubled muse and frustrated artist, in this beautiful debut novel. In 1895, sixteen-year-old Juliet LaCompte has a passionate, doomed romance with the married Parisian painter Auguste Marchant. When her mother -- a witch -- botches a curse on Marchant, she unwittingly binds Juliet to the artist through time, damning her to re-live her affair and die tragically young lifetime after lifetime as the star-crossed lovers reincarnate through history. Luke Varner, the worldly demon tasked with maintaining this badly crafted curse, has been helplessly in love with his charge, in all her reincarnations, since 19th century France. He's in love with Nora, a silver screen starlet in 1930s Hollywood. He's in love with Sandra, a struggling musician in 1970s Los Angeles. And he's in love with Helen, a magazine exec in present-day DC who has the power to "suggest" others do her bidding. In this life, Helen starts to recall the curse and her tragic previous lives. But this time, she might have the power to break the cycle..."--… (plus d'informations)

This is definitely reminiscent of addie larue (even both of their demon lovers are called Luke).
I loved some lives of hers and quite disliked others - I felt like some of them could have been shortened to improve the pace.
Overall I found it entertaining but I needed more chemistry between her and Luke. ( )

I'm not a fan of stories about witches and demons. Even "magical realism" isn't real enough for me. But both my sister and a friend told me that I would like this one. And I did. It's more of a love story with time travel and past lives than anything else. I liked the way the author portrayed the different time periods so well. And the way the main female character, while the same person, was a product of her time and not exactly the same in each life. The story was well written, and I wanted to know what would happen. I liked the ending! Still, not going to read much more of this genre, but a nice break from the usual for me. ( )

Thoughts:

1. This is perfect for a book club read because I figured out so many things when talking about the book with a friend! Talking brought clarity that I wouldn’t have found otherwise.

2. A most ambitious undertaking, to put so many past lives in a book!

3. Spook-o-meter: I’m a straight up chicken but I did well with the spooky factor. I could even read it at night!

4. TW: Sexual assault, physical abuse, curses, drug use, suicide.

5. Audiobook version borrowed from library: narrator did a great job with all the different accents.

6. What a journey!

Wow. I really wanted to love this. At first it seemed promising, but it ended up being the makings of a somewhat original witchy tale mired down by potholes, not well thought out plot points, and the convenience of plot armor, deus ex machina and an occasional macguffin thrown in order to further along a tale that just looses it's way. I truly liked the different lives the character lead and feel like somewhere buried beneath the muck, the author really had something. ( )
