When James Wilder signs up for a yoga retreat, something he's never done before, he's desperate to hit the reset button on life. Divorced, fighting cancer, and convinced he's hearing the whispers of the gods, he writes love poetry inspired by the great Sufi masters, Rumi and Hafiz. And in his wallet, he carries the business card of a beautiful woman he's never met. When she unexpectedly turns up on the mat next to his, everything changes.
 

From the foothills of Boulder, Colorado, to the turquoise waters of St. John, from the rice paddies of Bali to a dusty trailer park in San Diego, the gods lead James on a spiritual quest to find Great Love. Driven by ideals and bedeviled by his own flaws, he encounters a series of teachers--all female incarnations of Shakti, the Divine Feminine--who guide his evolution as a poet, a yogi, and a man



Review



I liked the diversity of the novel. It pulls together many different elements, all of which are executed well and come together seamlessly. 

Wonderfully concise writing style. Easy to follow and characters that are easy to love! 

I loved that the author was able to bring so much life into his characters and build on them throughout the course of the story. 

Deep, Inspiring, and allaround perfect!

Look for his book of poetry: Hafiz and I: Faint Echoes of an Ancient Heart coming in 2019.
