The 24th Life Michele E Mathews

The 24th Life. His final life. His last chance. His only hope. James lives in the exquisite world of the In-Between. As a former Egyptian slave, a brawny barmaid and even a fiddler for King Henry XIII's court, he has lived twenty-three, mostly tortuous lives while waiting centuries for the love of one woman, Abrielle. Charlie, who has been James's friend, brother and nemesis in previous lives, is now a wealthy Chicago attorney. When Abrielle unexpectedly appears in the modern-day, mortal world and reconnects with Charlie, James can no longer control his rage at the possibility of being overlooked one last time. When he discovers loop-holes in the heavenly system, James devises a horrifying plan to set things right once and for all. In the end, both men must decide... forgiveness or the alluring love of Abrielle.
