Publisher's Summary:
Leave it to Maryah Woodsen to break the one rule that will screw up eternity: Never erase your memories.
Before entering this life, Maryah did the unthinkable - she erased. Now, at 17 years old, she's clueless that her new adoptive family has known her for centuries, that they are perpetually reincarnated souls, and that they have supernatural abilities. Oh, and she's supposed to love (not despise) Nathan, the green-eyed daredevil who saved her life.
Nathan is convinced his family's plan to spark Maryah's memory is hopeless, but his love for her is undying. After spending (and remembering) so many lifetimes together, being around an empty version of his soulmate is heart shattering. He hates acting like a stalker, but has no choice because the evil outcast who murdered Maryah in their last lifetime is still after her.
While Maryah's hunter inches closer, she and Nathan make assumptions and hide secrets that rip them further apart. Maryah has to believe in the magic within her, Nathan must have faith in the power of their love, and both need to grasp onto the truth before they lose each other forever - and discover just how lonely eternity can be.

Reincarnated Reading Experience
Would you listen to Grasping at Eternity again? Why?
Absolutely. This is actually a re-read for me as I've read it in e-book form before, so I knew I'd love the story. It's the first time I've re-read a story as an audiobook, and it added a whole new dimension for me, like re-discovering an old friend. I'll definitely listen again.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Grasping at Eternity?
The big finale, really. But I can't tell you about that because spoilers!
Which character as performed by Noah Michael Levine and Erin deWard was your favorite?
Nathan, but then I've always had a bit of a crush on him! I loved the way Erin did all the female characters too, especially Sheila, for some reason! Must have been the Irish accent.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Er, that's a tricky question. Have you ever tried to write a good tag line before?
I'll just say it'd include the words: Love! Reincarnation! Magic! Stars!
Any additional comments?
I'm a big Karen fan, and if you loved this book, just wait for the next one! Squee :)
An Amazing Experience!
I literally just finished listening to this audio book and I am amazed! I had already read this book a couple of years ago, but I feel like I was reading it again for the first time! The narrators enhanced the reading experience so much! The way they conveyed each emotion and portrayed each character was incredible.
I felt like I was seeing a movie with how vividly the narrators performed the story. I was laughing, crying, swooning, and smiling the whole time I was listening to this narration.
One small complaint is that Erin would sometimes whisper and I had to turn the volume up, but then Noah would have a loud voice, which meant I had to lower the volume. I was playing around with the volume controls for along time, but I didn't mind it once I got used to it.
As for the book itself, I was captivated by the very beginning by Maryah's story. The writing was lush and intrinsically, and I wouldn't help but keep listening.
If you're having any thoughts about this book, don't.
