Teaser Tuesday: The Eternal Ones

"Ever since she was a tiny little thing, my nine-year-old daughter's been talking about someone named Ethan. The first time I caught her, I was walking past her bedroom. The door was open a crack and I heard her whispering. I remember she was sitting on the floor with her dolls around her talking to someone I couldn't see. Her eyes looked all glassy like she was in some kind of trance. She said:

"Remember that time you kissed me by the fountain?"
"What was that?" I asked, and Haven jumped like I'd caught her in the middle of something. "Who are you talking to?"
"Ethan."
"Which one is Ethan?" I thought she was talking about one of her dolls, which made her laugh.
"Ethan's not a doll. He's real."
"Well then, if he's real, where is he?"
"Dead," she said."

Don't be fooled by the simple cover, this book has been interesting since the first few pages. I started it yesterday and I'm already on page 41. Already got like a ton of questions, and am already liking the characters.

This book's summary:

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.

The summary kind of reminds me of The Blue Bloods series, plus a bit of Evermore. But til now I haven't picked up the essence of either in the pages.
