With a deft ability for painting these diverse settings, Michaels introduces us to Jason, a 19th-century healer tormented by recurring nightmares of a gruesome witch-burning, and Mike, a troubled modern youth deep in LA's burgeoning music scene who is visited by prescient dreams and a mysterious "lady in white." Both men must discover the significance of their reveries, the source of their developing strange gifts and the secret behind their powerful loves gained and lost. And in the world of Love Returns Through The Portal of Time, nothing is as disconnected as it seems.

A novel of self discovery and growth, Love Returns Through The Portal of Time is the story about soul mates who travel through the portal of time to answer their most pressing questions: How do they seize the full powers of their psyche? How can they identify their true soul mate? Why are there so many lonely people in a world of six billion? And just who left the time capsule that could hold the key to everything?

Michaels' novel, available on his Web site at www.outskirtspress.com/ks.michaels , also tackles the major issues of our time -- from loneliness to finding true love, from suicide to substance abuse. Through it all, the book crackles with the spot-on dialog and sense of place -- no matter where or when that might be -- that could only come from a writer to watch.
