Why read it?
1 author picked Glimpses of Wilderness as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Glimpses of Wilderness is an absolutely enchanting example of the YA reincarnation/time travel romance genre – wait, there is no such genre, you say? Well, that's why I consider this romance "off the beaten path." It is truly a unique gem that transports you to a spellbinding world with a gripping plot and a beautiful, world-stopping love story.

I'm not usually a reader of young adult fiction, but for Lee Ann Ward's incredible writing, I'll make an exception.
From Anise's list on romances off the beaten path.
