Sand & Sea : Footprints in the Sand
by Ann D'Silva
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My Rating 4.5/5
Synopsis
People don’t believe in the unseen, anymore,
Only in things they can see for sure.
They say love and soulmates exist no more,
Yet they breathe an unseen air to live for sure.
Not every story begins in the here and now. Some transit through time never ending. If time were to cease, then some things would live forever…
It began in the garden beneath which rivers flow, the place where the Sand and the Sea were born before creation ¬– the first soulmates, the two halves of one whole, the two parts of the eternity sign.
A part Koli, East Indian Catholic, Hannah lives in Mumbai where the Sea always watches over her. Yet her dreams are haunted by a voice that calls to her through the breeze… True love walks beside her in another life, yet she is unable to find a way back in time.
Riddled with disappointment and distressing heartbreak, she is hopelessly drawn to the path the Universe has laid before her feet. Drawn to Istanbul, she finds part of the puzzle in the Ezan of the Blue Mosque.
Could the man from her dreams be real?
What could an Indian woman and a Turkish Imam have in common?
Will Hannah find what she searches for?
Only those who believe will pass the test.
Everyone has their own journey; some get on to the path and to some, the path comes calling.
This is the tale of the Sand and the Sea,
Hanging on the edge of wait, watch and let’s see.

My Thoughts
Sand & Sea : Footprints in the Sand by Ann D'Silva will wing your imagination and make you read every page twice, before finally turning it. I won’t call it a clichè romance, as it won’t only make you perceive incidents as if they were happening in front of you, but also feel them with each word.
Through a millennial’s eye, it is never your last love, but as an old school reader sees it, it is always your first love which you carry with yourself till the last breath, and the storyline of this piece of art will prove it to you in better words.
I'm not a big fan of the whole romance book thing. But for some reason this author seems to make it in my opinion that bit easier to read and more enjoyable. So I thought this book was very well written, easy to follow and very moving . I found it very difficult to put down from the start. It shows us that we need to follow our hearts no matter what the circumstances are, the only thing that matters is what's in the inside of you.
One thing I can guarantee is that you will never get tired of reading this small binding of huge emotions...no matter the number of times you pick this, goosebumps would come along for free.
I would highly recommend this book . I would also recommend you have some tissues near by.
Must Read for sure
