Nora Roberts can create tension and draw readers in like few other authors I’ve read. It’s simple to become part of that emotion, to feel the pain and grief, to experience the highs and lows. This book is no exception. Parts are nearly too graphic and I had to step away to allow the emotions to settle. But, as she always does, Roberts created both characters and resolutions I was happy to know, to experience.

This was a little slow for me.  There was action off the bat and then the whole middle of the book you are waiting for a showdown.  When it happens, it’s a little anticlimactic.  Well drawn out characters and the lifestyle depicted is also well described with cultural norms highlighted in an interesting way.

Psychological Thriller meets small-town romance. Once again, Nora doesn't disappoint. We follow the main character through childhood trauma, navigating her special gift, and getting through a couple of 'full-circle' moments. Add this one to your TBR List. ♥

This was another great book by Ms. Roberts! It did feel a little repetitive and drawn out in parts, but overall I loved the story. Thea was a great centerpiece and I loved the conflict with Rigs, but I would have liked to learn a bit more about how Rem turned out. Would definitely recommend!!

Nora Robert’s works are comfort reads for me.  She rarely disappoints in her character and plot developments.  This read was a mix of normal romance with a touch got he supernatural thrown in with Thea’s psychic gift.  

Found it wrapped up quickly in the end and would have liked to see just a touch more of Thea and Ty’s story

Spice level was low on this one. Not quite closed door romance but barely open door.

I wish the kid's name and the bad guys name didn't sound so much alike. Confusing at times.
