Review
I liked the realisticness of this novel. There werent a bunch of circumstances that seemed too far fetched. Everything that happened had some believability to it and that really gives credibility to the author.
The writing style was easy to follow and the pacing was well done.
This is definitely a Mystery and Romantic Suspense novel that will make you think and keep you guessing.
The romance aspect was well balanced and I felt like I agreed with Taylor MOST of the time.

As a former holistic practitioner with a science background, Christina Thompson enjoys writing about the physical science, the emotional workings of our mind and heart, and the spiritual energy that taps into our passions.
Her degree in biology from Nazareth College in Kalamazoo gave her a love of science and a background into the physical realm of the body. Her diploma in Traditional Chinese acupuncture from Midwest College of Oriental Medicine taught her that the mind and spirit affect the body in powerful ways. The healing power of LOVE is incredibly profound.
She currently resides with her husband, Kraig, in Michigan.
