Now divorced, Tauri enters the world of tarot reading for romantic guidance, which leads him on a journey back to Libi in more ways than one-and on numerous occasions.But are their destinies indeed interwoven? Or is fate having a good time forcing a romance when no-mance is the best path?The truth lies in the stars and the cards in this epic tale in which the pair's mistakes are never as big as their desire for each other.Praise for "A Journey Must Be Taken - Playlist":"At times, the story feels repetitive, with too little input from Libi, who rejects and then pulls Tauri back in several times throughout the novel, leading the reader to wonder whether the desired effect is that of a meditation on the long journey it can take to find happiness or an exploration of delusion. That being said, the breathless intensity of the protagonist's fixation makes the book a compelling read, pushing the reader to reckon with Tauri's pursuit of happiness. An offbeat romance with an intriguing premise that will leave readers guessing right until the very end." - Kirkus Review
