The dual perspective helps push the plot forward, and I quite enjoyed the person that Eagan runs into while in the afterlife. Postmortem, we see Eagan interact with her present self in the afterlife and her past life on Earth. Eagan’s passion for ice skating is well-delivered, as is her rocky relationship with her mother. Told through alternating perspectives and time frames, we learn about the horrible heart condition that has impacted Amelia’s life forever and about the passion for ice skating that ultimately takes Eagan’s life.Įllsworth’s prose is lovely and fluid, and she offers us unique insights into the lives of two very different characters. In a Heartbeat by Loretta Ellsworth tells us the interwoven stories of two girls whose lives change in a matter of microseconds.
