Book Description
Lizzie Davenport has been reincarnated from Regency Era, England ... but she doesn't know it yet.
Then Drew Carmichael transfers into Lizzie's high school at the beginning of the year, and she feels a connection to him, almost like she knows him. She can't stop thinking about him, but whenever she tries talking with him about the mysteries behind her feelings, he makes it clear that he wants nothing to do with her. Reaching him is even more difficult because she has a boyfriend, Jeremy, who has started to become full of himself after being elected co-captain of the varsity soccer team, and her flirtatious best friend Chelsea starts dating Drew soon after his arrival. So why can't she get him out of her mind?
Even though Lizzie knows she should let go of her fascination with Drew, fighting fate isn't going to be easy.

Character Interview
Lizzie Davenport
Character Interview with Lizzie
This character interview was held by Molli from Once Upon a Prologue. Lizzie’s answers are by Michelle Madow.
Lizzie: How he can be on the same wave-length as me, without me having to say anything. When I was dating Jeremy, it was sometimes a chore to explain my point of view and get him to understand it. He tried, but we viewed situations differently, so it could be difficult to be on the same page as him. With Drew, sometimes it’s like his thoughts are an extension on mine—he takes in situations the same way, and naturally understands how I feel about things.
Molli: If you could spend one day doing exactly what you wanted, what would it be, and why?
Lizzie: First of all, my perfect day would consist of not having to worry about anything—whether that is homework, or trying to stop my death in the past from happening again in the present. I would want to spend that day with Drew, in England, doing as many tourist activities as possible!
Molli: Who is your hero and why?
Lizzie: Jane Austen, for writing such incredible and inspiring novels.
Molli: Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Lizzie: In college, majoring in English and minoring in Art.
Molli: What one song would you say describes you and Drew?
Lizzie: The first song that comes to mind when I think of Drew is “Minuet,” because the songs means so much to both of us. The lyrics to “Love Story” by Taylor Swift remind me a lot of our relationship, too ;)
Molli: How have your impressions of Drew changed from when you first met?
Lizzie: My impression of Drew has changed greatly from the first time we met. At first, I felt connected to him, but wasn’t sure why. Then he treated me coldly, and I honestly thought he was a jerk. (Although I still couldn’t get rid of that connection I felt to him, which was quite irritating!) Now that I know him and understand why he acted the way he did, I learn more every day how sweet and loving he is.
Molli: How does it make you feel, knowing you lived a life before this one?
Lizzie: There are so many days when I wake up and am amazed that I lived a previous life. It’s incredible to think about, and it’s also assuring to have concrete proof that life doesn’t end at death.
Molli: What three things are most important to you?
Lizzie: My family, Drew, and my friends. People are more important than anything else, because they are irreplaceable.
Molli: What is your favorite memory of Drew?
Lizzie:
Past life—When he proposed to me in the field outside my house.
Present life—When he showed me the music box after the first time we went out on the lake.
Molli: What is the best advice you were ever given?
Lizzie: My mom always tells me not to react to situations immediately, and to give myself time to “mull things over” before coming to a conclusion. I try to do that as often as I can, although sometimes it can be difficult!

About the Author
Michelle Madow
Michelle Madow was inspired to write Remembrance after seeing Taylor Swift's "Love Story" music video while a junior at Rollins College in Winter Park, FL. The song and video gave her the story idea about a high school girl reincarnated from Regency Era, England. She handed in the first chapter as a homework assignment for class, and when her teacher and classmates wanted her to continue writing, she decided to go for it. By the end of the school year, her first novel was completed!
Michelle graduated from the Park School of Baltimore in 2005, where she always took two English classes each semester. She graduated from Rollins College in 2010, cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in English. At Rollins she was a member of the National Society of Collegiate Scholars, and a member of the International English Honor Society Sigma Tau Delta.
She received the Charles Hyde Pratt Award for Excellence in Creative Writing in 2010.
Michelle lives in Florida, where she is hard at work writing more novels for young adults.
