In This Life Or The Next is a stunning read. Each page is like a magnet never releasing the hold that spellbinds the reader. Kallysten weaves a brilliant tale that appears so genuine in every way. She depicts characters that have great interaction with each other, and weaves imagery in the paintings that are truly vibrant.

This is a story of past lives and reincarnation; be it between only two people over and over, or actually an unrequited love triangle from the past. In this life Tania must choose between her husband Alex, whom she loves, and a past life love who she is connected to but does not love. This is a masterpiece, combining elements of reincarnation, memories, and life recognitions that have resurfaced from another time and place. This subject is real, documented, and happens more than we think. (...)  Sometimes we have loved others before in past lives but they are not destined for us in this lifetime, another might be. Just because this life is not their time does not mean the next will not be.

In This Life Or The Next puts a unique twist on the woman torn between two lovers scenario. Kallysten has created a remarkable triangle repeated through lifetimes, giving Tania a very difficult emotional decision. I found myself sympathizing with her as she struggled with highly erotic visions of her past with Marc and the various incarnations and lifetimes of their love endured. The author’s very vivid depictions of love enduring lifetimes had me wondering which way Tania would go.

In This Life or the Next had my emotions all over the place.  One minute I want her to be in love with Marc, but Alex was such a great guy, I didn’t want her to leave him.  I love stories that can pull all emotions together to form a fantastic tale.  In This Life or the Next is a wonderful story that brings together past lives into the present to create a new beginning.
