Someday Soon

Someday Soon, by New York Times Bestselling Author, Joan Hohl, is actually a combination of three novels in one: Window on Yesterday, Window on Today, and Window on Tomorrow. Each story revolves around one of three young, intelligent women who attend/ed a Pennsylvania University and are best friends and are/were roommates. The first story, Window on Yesterday, centers on Alycia Matlock, history major, and Sean Halloran, famous historian and History Professor. This, of the three, was the best and most enjoyable. The two characters have undeniable chemistry and a realistic relationship. They share common interests, share meaningful, interesting conversation and actually get to know each other and declare their love for one another before they make love. I was enthralled with their devotion to one another even when crisis arises. They make a complete and believable union, unlike the other two stories. In, Window on Today, art gallery owner Karla Janowitz butts heads with infamous artist Jared Cradowg over a painting of his grandfather that she owns. In order to obtain the painting Jared sets out to seduce Karla by any means possible. He actually states that they will have a hot love affair and in the end he will have the painting. He is arrogant, rude and well, just downright mean. but karla is too captivated with the attraction and arousal that Jared evokes in her to see straight and step back. Most of the time i was screaming, "Just shut up and LEAVE! This guy is an ass and doesn't deserve you!" But she "convinces" herself that she is in control, despite the fact that she turns to mush the second Jared looks at her. Magically overnight, Jared transforms into a sensitive, intelligent man who guides her around the beautiful landscapes and sites in Arizona. She actually describes him as being SHY! I was really confused with the change and his declaration of love. Towards the end misconceptions between the two are cleared and Jared seems like the perfect guy. I appreciated the caring man that Jared turned into and wished he wasn't so downright awful in the beginning of the book. The final book, Window on Tomorrow, confused the heck out of me. Andrea Trask is the utterly beautiful dreamer, and most of the novel she is either dreaming or thinking about her dreams. She lives in California with her loving aunt after graduating from the Pennsylvania university and the rejection from NASA. She, (as all three women were) has only had one lover and serious relationship, (before meeting their soulmates). So, she created a dream lover. Tall, with dark hair and handsome, she looses herself in the comfort of her dreams and the dream lover's arms. For over a year she sees him in dreams and when they finally unite (all the way) as lovers, she is amazed. But then, at a cafe the afternoon following the dream, she sees Mr.DreamLover...only he's real. Flesh and blood male. SHe is amazed, confused, shocked. SHe flees the cafe and returns home to her aunt and he
