When chosen by the Crone Mother to perform a ritual, Katrina begins her frantic search for the answer to settle the rift in the Collective Consciousness.  Having trained for this high honor in the monastic order of mystical women, she reserves her position by seeking and finding her understudy.  In discovering their bond, Katrina comes to the realization that it will be through their one spirit, and one true love that will determine the future of her world and his.

Ian, a computer programmer, has been preparing for their meeting without an order to guide and instruct him.  Unknown to him, this true love bond leads him to understand a dream of their union.  For years, he has prepared their meeting place in his study so that the energy and timing of their visits will happen.

The couple transcends their parallel realities and become aware of their bond, which at first is limited in contact and lacking in conversational abilities. Through future visits, their love proves to be everlasting and such that they both risk great harm to themselves to reunite.  Finally, they discover the reason for their meeting is for the good of all, and Ian's dream proves the means needed for their safety and continuous.

There exists more than "one truth."  It can be defined differently by each perceiver.  Truth is such until it is replaced by the next revelation. In our world, one cannot be so vain as to believe that there are only truths and non-truths.

Mr. Walters conveys the reality of mystical worlds and our interaction with them very eloquently.  He states that there is "one true love in its infinite expression," meaning there is one connection, above all others that can make us feel whole, like our full selves. This book is highly recommended for the reader seeking a love story that knows no limits. As a metaphysical novel, one can expand their views of worlds and civilizations existing with us, and how we may affect those close to us with or without our knowledge.

“Sacred Vow” is highly recommended, and a sequel would be much welcomed.

When two parallel worlds break the barriers to co-exist as one, only true love can provide the solution to the rift between them. Having achieved this goal, it is with sadness that this union between soul mates cannot continue in the ways of our world.  It is with gladness and thanks that a love so true can choose to sacrifice itself for the good of us all. “Sacred Vow” will bring a positive message to all to live each moment to its fullest potential.
