Can wishes come true for the dead?

 

          Lisa Duvall certainly hopes so. Why else was her soul left behind to, not only watch the aftermath of her own death, but to feel her loved ones pain of it, too? It is almost unbearable for one eight-year-old spirit. 

Learning to navigate this new form of existence, Lisa tries to bring comfort to her family as they deal with her tragic death. However, she soon discovers that they are not the only ones who need her help, and if she doesn’t act swiftly it would mean the difference between life or death. All of this is a lot to ask of one little girl who recently died on her eighth birthday, and whose one final wish was to one day experience a love that she witnessed between her parents and upon the covers of all the young teenage romance books she had hidden in her closet. 

 

Heart of Mine is the finale in the Irony of Time series. Written into several parts, Lisa first takes the reader briefly back into book two, Hope with Stickers, through her eyes as an eight-year-old ghost thrust into a dangerous adult world. In the next two parts, the point of view shifts into an altered realm where Lisa and the main characters from book one and two are linked back together in a dramatic turn of events. 

 

Could it be, in this world, that the heart’s final wish will come true, even for the once departed?
