Book Description:
Sometimes the last person you save is yourself. Elena must take her city back from terrorists. Hana must save her tribe from the wrath of a ruthless king. They’re stronger together. The problem is they’re 4,000 years and 6,000 miles apart. Wounded during a terrorist attack, NYC police commando Elena Labat wakes from her coma aboard a Phoenician boat on the Mediterranean Sea to find a young girl lashed to the mast. The girl is Hana, who has trekked across Bronze Age Lebanon with Danel to prevent a king from destroying her tribe. Elena knows she must save Hana. And Hana must escape the barbarians who abducted her before she can find Danel and go home. Slipping in and out of unconsciousness, Elena teaches Hana everything she can, protecting her from barbarians, a priestess, and a king. But Elena’s family needs her, and she can’t stay in the past. Hana will have to succeed on her own.

Review:

Elena Labat is a special forces Police in New York City.  She is called in to duty when a large scale terrorist attack rocks the City in multiple locations.  Elena knows that there is more to this attack then what she can see.  After an explosion, Elena is left confused and eventually  unconscious.  While Elena is unconscious, she is thrown into the world of her ancestor, the story of Hana that her mother told her as a child.  Hana lived 4,000 years ago in Lebanon.  Hana is unique due to her blue eye color and is coveted by the King.  The King has demanded Hana be sent to him on her 12th birthday.  Her parents comply and Hana is sent on the dangerous trek through the desert with a guide from Sidon, Danel.  Reaching the palace, she is placed in service to the Queen, soon to be given over to the Prince.  Hana wants more to her life, freedom and purpose.  She will fight for these things, but finds herself needing help after getting kidnapped.  Elena enters Hana's life from her coma and helps Hana escape, however when Elena wakes up from her coma she is left longing for Hana's life and reassurance that she is happy.

  Blue Girl on a Night Dream Sea is the story of two strong and courageous women 4,000 years apart.  The writing alternates viewpoints between Elena in the present and Hana in ancient Lebanon.  At first, the connection between the two women is not apparent and it is like reading two separate, though compelling stories.  Usually in dual-time stories, I am drawn towards one story more than the other, however I felt equally drawn towards each woman's story and was constantly wondering what had happened to one character while I was reading about the other.  I was amazed at how the writing was able to portray both women as strong and firmly rooted within their time period.  When their stories finally do intersect,  Elena finds a deeper meaning in life and Hana is able to tap into a deep inner strength.  I really enjoyed that this was more than just a time-slip story, but a story of two heroic women connected through time.  Overall, Blue Girl on a Night Dream Sea is a thrilling dual-time adventure with well-written, amazing female characters.

    Hi there! I'm Stephanie and I obviously love reading.  As, the title suggests, I read at least one hundred pages a day.  I enjoy most book genres; however, my favorites are historical fiction, fantasy, science fiction, thriller, horror and YA.  I also read a lot of non-fiction science and gardening books for my occupation.  I enjoy reviewing books and as always, any book that I receive for free is read in return for my honest review.
