"I was sixteen the second time I had my first kiss...."
At the end of AMBER HOUSE, Sarah made a choice that transformed everything--and now she must choose it all again.
Things are very different--better--for Sarah and her family: her Aunt Maggie grew up; her parents are happily married; her grandmother died after a long, productive and respected life. But other things are different too, and not for the better.
After growing up in the free country of the Pacific Northwest, Sarah Parsons has settled in at Amber House, the stately Maryland home that's been in her family for generations. But the world surrounding the House feels deeply wrong to Sarah. It's a place where the colonists lost the 1776 Insurrection, where the American Confederation of States still struggles with segregation, and where Sarah is haunted by echoes of a better world that she knows never existed.
Her friend Jackson shares these visions of a different world--and together, they manage both to remember the way things ought to be, and to plan a daring mission that will reset the universe once again. Sarah must figure out what has changed, and why, and how she can fix it--how she can find her way to another otherwhen.

I read Amber House last year for my Halloween challenge and I fell in love with it (check out my review here)! And I wasn't expecting to. It was creepy but not too creepy and the plot was so interesting I couldn't stop flipping the pages! So imagine my excitement when I realized it was a series!
The lovely ladies responsible for The Amber House trilogy invited me to do a blog tour and supplied me with a puzzle piece for all of you to put together! My review of Neverwas will be posted closer to the release date!
