Book Mom @ It's Raining Books *****
I want you to know that after the first few pages, this story jumped into high gear, and I couldn’t put it down. I had to know what was going on. Why had this murder happened? And even when it was explained, I wanted to know more.
This story is absolutely heart stopping and has a lot of twists and turns. I wanted to hurry and finish it so I would know how it ended, but I also wanted to savor it along the way. This is not just another mystery. It is a wonderful example of how a suspense novel should be written. It kept me on my toes the entire time I was reading it.
Mixed in was a love story that was touching, warm and honest. It had plenty of heat, but the emotions were primary to the relationship. And the love story fit in so well that you could see that it was a very important portion of the whole plot in this tale. Without it, the story wouldn't have worked. Even the hero in this story had secrets that were part of the things that were going on.
I couldn’t help but feel some sympathy for some of the Scots, but not for all of them. It was fascinating the way past history was woven into the story and the author's imagination was just amazing.
Watch out Tom Clancy. This is one of the most exciting, hold-your-breath stories I’ve read in a long, long time. Except, unlike Clancy, there’s a bit of sexy romance involved.
Legacy of the Highlands was a fantastic book that I devoured with pleasure. I can't wait to see what this author does next. She's got amazing talent and I'll be first in line for whatever she releases.
The Write Companion ****
Will Cameron was a good man who could sense that he was being followed. All the way down to the depths of his soul, he knew that something was off, but just couldn’t explain his feelings to his beloved wife, Alexandra.
Putting his worries aside for a few hours, Will and Alex have the perfect evening that so many couples dream of, before a ‘craving’ hits that sends Will out into the streets of the Boston Back Bay neighborhood they lived in to fetch something for his wife. Unfortunately, that would be the last time that Alex ever saw her perfect husband and lived her perfect life.
As they story progresses, more and more information is unveiled about Will’s parents, secret agents, undercover fighters, and more, begin to unveil the secrets and lies that each have been keeping. (And then there's the romance!)
With each page and each new character and plot, this story goes from good to great, as the shots of adrenaline begin to flow. Not to mention, every time you believe you have a handle on the ‘back-story,’ you end up wrong. The plot thickens as past mistakes, legendary documents, and a huge secret comes to life that is definitely placed in the category of the ‘sins of the parent.’
With shades of James Bond, Nick and Nora Charles, - even a little Sherlock Holmes - this particular author has made sure to offer up very cool history, locales and characters that make you read the book so fast that you turn around and start all over in order to get that thrill again!
