UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN
They exist in two different centuries, but their love
defies time.
Cassandra craves drama and adventure, so the last
thing she wants is to spend her summer marooned
with her mother and stepfather in a snooty
Massachusetts shore town. But when a dreamy
stranger shows up on their private beach claiming
it’s his own—and that the year is 1925—she is
swept into a mystery a hundred years in the making.
As she searches for answers in the present, Cassandra discovers a truth that
puts their growing love—and Lawrence’s life—into jeopardy.

Praise
“Time stood still as I read this breathtakingly beautiful story. I didn’t want it
to end.”—Kasie West, author of The Fill-In Boyfriend and The Distance
Between Us
“A beach house, a mystery, and time-travel love make Until We Meet Again
a romantic, engaging read.”—Deb Caletti, National Book Award Finalist
for Honey, Baby, Sweetheart
“Moonlight, mystery, and murder make for a thrilling combination in this
lush tale that bridges the present day with the Gatsby era on a time-crossed
beach. Until We Meet Again is tragically beautiful with twists you won’t
see coming.”—Martina Boone, author of Compulsion and the Heirs of
Watson Island trilogy
Discussion Questions
Both Cassandra and Lawrence were struggling with
something at the beginning of the book. Did they find
resolutions by the end? In what ways did each character
grow?
What similarities do Lawrence and Cassandra share in
spite of the nearly hundred years that separate them? What are some
of their differences?
Why was Cassandra so reluctant to tell Lawrence anything about the
future? Should she have told him more?
Did Lawrence love Fay? Was she true competition for Cassandra?
Was Lawrence destined to die? Or do you think meeting Cassandra
contributed to that? Did her actions in trying to save Lawrence actually
seal his fate? Do you think things would have become deadly with Ned
and his shady business deals no matter what?
Do you think Cassandra could have done something different in her
efforts to save Lawrence? What would you have done in her shoes?
The transformative power of love is a major theme in the novel. How
did Lawrence and Cassandra’s love for each other transform them?
What do you think Cassandra meant when she told Lawrence, “Love is
its own reason,” near the end of the story?
If it had been possible to travel into each other’s time, should the
characters have done so? What sacrifices would they have had to make
to adjust to each other’s worlds? Who would it have been harder for?
If you could meet and fall in love with someone from another time,
which era would you choose?
