My Review
I
have always liked the novels that I’ve read by Sandra Cox and Boji Stones is no
exception. Call it the romantic in me, but I always love a great ending. The
book starts with the magnanimity of gods who give to five mortal women a magical
amulet: of power, beauty, creativity, knowledge and healing.
The
story then moves to present-day times. We meet Maureen Sinclair who is the
nowadays owner of the healing amulet. But there are other people having their
eyes on the precious object.
Can Jack Wolfe, the handsome professor, be a
tool of the evil forces wanting to grab it? You can feel the sparks between Maureen
and Jack, though she and her loyal friend Hank suspect he is behind the many
bad things happening in her life.
The
characters are fun and realistic, even Bella, who wants back the beauty amulet
that was stolen from her. There’s a great scene when Maureen and Bella join
forces in a hospital room.
I
especially loved the plot in this book. The plot moved along nicely with twists
thrown in. When you think the story goes to a predictable direction, a twist
pushes everything to a rollercoaster of events. I loved how each chapter ends
with a snippet, the POV of the mean character. This snippet becomes a
cliffhanger. It doesn’t let you close the book and makes you want to find out
who is who and what their target is.
It’s
a nice, quick read; making it the perfect romantic suspense book.
