In this higher consciousness love story, author Jeff Brown introduces the concept of 'uncommon bonds' through the profound connection between Sarah and Lowen- two soul-mates who have found their way to one another yet again. In this remarkably engaging story, we walk beside the lovers as they touch the divine and then struggle to ground their love in daily life.
