Longing for Love: Mountains and Seas Reunited

This is the second book in a three-lifetimes story of Xiao Yao and Xiang Liu from Lost You Forever. The first book is for Xiang Liu fans. It tells how Xiao Yao's reincarnation travels back in time ten thousand years later to save Xiang Liu, and how Gui Fang Chen and Xiang Liu found the Sea Kingdom. The second book, Returning Together from Mountains and Seas, tells how Gui Fang Chen helps Xiao Yao grow, severs her connection with Cang Xuan at its source, and ends Cang Xuan's ten-thousand-year hold over her. It also recounts in reverse order the first and second lives of Xiao Yao and Xiang Liu, and ultimately saves Xiang Liu from Cang Xuan, giving him a happy life. Readers will see Xiao Yao grow throughout this story. Gui Fang Chen's soul is Xiao Yao's modern-day reincarnation, Xia Jiu Chen, who traveled back in time. She is simply Xiao Yao's reincarnation, and the two are connected. Both are bound by Cang Xuan's unshakable obsession, and both are betrayed and killed twice by those closest to them. Yet they are also completely different. Gui Fang Chen's love for Xiang Liu never wavers, and the Xiang Liu of the third life is happy ever since Gui Fang Chen saves him from the death arena. Even the little furball gets to be happy every day! Readers who haven't read the first book may find some of the characters here unfamiliar. I recommend starting with the very sweet first book, as well as the bittersweet romance of Ru Shou.
