A Time for Us
A Time for Us tells a tale of love transcending time and circumstance. Readers embark on a journey that weaves together the lives of Deborah, a contemporary African-American woman plagued by vivid dreams of a previous existence, and Pauli, the mysterious Caucasian New Yorker who evokes an eerie sense of familiarity in her soul.
As Deborah wrestles with the notion of reincarnation, she uncovers a fervent and dangerous love story involving Jeannette, a Colored seamstress from Harlem, and Mario, a charming Italian man caught in the perilous realm of organized crime during the 1940s in New York City.
Deborah teeters on the edge of jeopardy, risking her present life to unravel the shadowy truths entwining Jeannette and Mario’s fates. Each step pulls her deeper into a world plagued by racial divides, suffocating societal expectations, and a love so powerful it refuses to die with time. But what she unearths does more than shake her—it forces her into a heart-wrenching battle, torn between the haunting passion of a past that will not let go and the fragile commitments of the life she clings to now.

My heart 🥹🤧 Wow I'm so incredibly grateful to netgalley for approving me to read such a beautiful debut novel. What would you do if one day a man walked into your job and triggered memories from another lifetime? Vivid, real, and heartfelt memories that are impossible to ignore so you have to get to the bottom of it. The vintage atmosphere and raw, undeniable love despite the circumstances they were in, really tugged at my heart. I've never read a book that explores soulmate reincarnation. The uniqueness intrigued me. There were moments tears welled in my eyes because of how emotional things got🤧. This will definitely go down as one of my favorite reads this year.❤️

A Time for Us is beautiful, emotional, and deeply romantic—a reminder that some loves never fade, no matter the era, the obstacles, or the lifetime. A must-read for anyone who believes love remembers… even when the heart must choose.

A Time for Us was a poignant read. The compelling plot involved suspense, tension, possible reincarnation, opposites attracted to one another, unfortunate family dynamics, brutality, prejudice, heart-wrenching pain, researching the subjects, noticing trends in the romantic situations, learning a great deal of information, and falling in love. Moreover, Deborah and Pauli, the protagonists, were truly made for each other and emanated chemistry. Additionally, I appreciated the author’s vivid descriptions that created a melancholy tone

Rachel Anthony’s A Time for Us is a sweeping, time-slipping love story that braids together 1940s New York and 1980s North Carolina, asking what happens when two souls keep finding each other across lifetimes... The novel’s biggest strength is how emotionally bold it is. Anthony doesn’t hold back—there’s instant recognition, deep longing, and that gut-punch ache of love that nearly happens. Those heightened stakes give both the quiet domestic scenes in Clayton and the shadowy underworld tensions of 1940s Manhattan a steady charge... For readers who love emotionally intense, time-crossed romances—think epic, fate-driven love stories with a strong thread of women’s fiction—A Time for Us will be a rewarding, cathartic read.

This book ruined me in the best way.
A Time for Us by Rachel Anthony wrecked me. Dual timelines, historical romance, and a love that finds its way back across lifetimes. Funny, heartbreaking, and so beautifully done. I will be thinking about this book forever. My heart still hurts...

I love love LOVED this beautiful story. This story is a must read if you enjoy true love, discovering ones self and have an open mind on possibilities that seem a bit of a reach. I was pulled into a love story that felt like it was based off od true events. Rachel Anthony captives you in this story of Deborah and Pauli that makes you think and feel their love for one another. She shows that real love has no boundaries and no expiration date. The way it ends is so emotional that it's one of those endings that it plays both ways of being the end but also leaving you wanting more. Leaves you thinking and asking is their more to their story?
