The Eternal Ones by Kirsten Miller

Summary from Goodreads

     Haven Moore can't control her visions of a past with a boy called Ethan, and a life in New York that ended in fiery tragedy. In our present, she designs beautiful dresses for her classmates with her best friend Beau. Dressmaking keeps her sane, since she lives with her widowed and heartbroken mother in her tyrannical grandmother's house in Snope City, a tiny town in Tennessee. Then an impossible group of coincidences conspire to force her to flee to New York, to discover who she is, and who she was.

     In New York, Haven meets Iain Morrow and is swept into an epic love affair that feels both deeply fated and terribly dangerous. Iain is suspected of murdering a rock star and Haven wonders, could he have murdered her in a past life? She visits the Ouroboros Society and discovers a murky world of reincarnation that stretches across millennia. Haven must discover the secrets hidden in her past lives, and loves¸ before all is lost and the cycle begins again.

Patterned Text Generator at TextSpace.net        THE ETERNAL ONES was a story filled with questions and mysteries. I loved Haven as a character, with her family she was very strong and held her ground. With Iain, she is sometimes naive and distracted by his handsomeness, but she always gets her answers. My favorite supporting character was Beau. He was the perfect brother. I loved his support for Haven and his protectiveness. Iain, I am still a little bit critical about. He spent most of the book lying to Haven and I don't know what to believe. Something I totally didn't expect was Adam and who he was. That is a secret to be kept until you see for yourself. The chills won't work correctly otherwise.   

     My least favorite character was Imogene. She was one of Haven's worst enemies. I hate when people try to push their religion down your throat, a hypocritical religion at that. The pastor was in on it! O_o Anyway, THE ETERNAL ONES was a completely different genre in it's one, mystery, horror and romance, all wrapped into one big literary present.
