This book shows a popular opinion about reincarnation: some people are destined to be together and neither time nor death can stand in the way of destiny. Mark and Marla's story is the continuation of the story begun by Marcas and Maureen, which may actually be the continuation of the story of another lifetime. This sounds like a very good book. Thank you for your review.

I like the setting of the book and the idea of adventure. I'm sure it will also appeal to those who are interested in romance too.

I'm not really one for romances but the sample and review is rather interesting so I'll give it a try. The supernatural part is what deawn me the most. Thanks for a great review.

The FiFie is a romantic tale of Marcas and Maureen, and Mark and Marla. This story is set in 18th-century Scotland and revolves around four characters whose love, past love, lives, and past lives are the focus of the plot. It demonstrates the value of a man and woman's relationship and the equal relevance of both love and intimacy. I appreciate your review.

Plain-spoken fisherfolk and supernatural occurrences? What’s not to like when love between two people even transcends their deaths into their next lives? I applaud the author who took on this task. Reading the review of "The Fifie" by Marco Collina was a treat as the book sample introduced us to characters that we want to know better.

This sounds like an interesting blend of historical fiction and the supernatural via reincarnation. While I’m not particularly looking for anything heavy on romance at the moment, the historical and supernatural elements, not to mention the harsh realities of love, seem as though they would balance that out well. Thank you for the helpful review.

This book is the highest epitome of undying love. I feel for Mark who is stuck in a loveless marriage. The themes in this book are well set. Congratulations to today's BOTD too. Nice and beautiful review too.

It was a detailed review. I am intrigued by the concept of next life. Marla and Mark and their life seems like a well written work. I don't know how they will be able to unite in the next life. The wide range of themes also make it interesting.

This book is oddly different from anything I've been reading in the past. The talk about supernatural love and its power sounds very intriguing to me. I've known about having a deep connection with someone but not knowing exactly why. This book provides me with another perspective, perhaps these people had history in their past lives. This is such an amazing book, congratulations on BOTD.

The historical fiction book "The Fifie" by Marco Collina has a tale that is set in Scotland. The supernatural aspect through which Mark and Marla, who had previously been Mark and Maureen, reconnected in their subsequent lives. Reading this story seems like fun.
