Book Review and Giveaway!


The back copy of this book was intriguing and I couldn't wait to start reading. If you are looking for an adventure romance with a historical twist, then I think you'll really enjoy this one.

Skye Armstrong is a flight attendant and returns home one evening to find her aunt has been kidnapped and she must produce an ancient document or her aunt will be killed. Jack, the handsome man from the plane, suddenly seems to be popping up right when Skye needs him and he knows a lot about her family, too. But when bullets start flying, can she really trust him? 

Skye begins a race against time to save her aunt that takes her all over the globe. I enjoyed the different locations and it was easy to see the author had really done her research. The intertwined history drew me in as Skye tried to figure out where her family fit in the puzzle. There was a lot of action as our hero and heroine were searching for artifacts and the story is charging ahead at breakneck speed, but we slow down just enough to make the characters come alive so everyone is rooting for a happy ending. Jack is everything a mysterious hero should be and I could definitely hear his accent in my head. *swoon* I thought the author really shone in the action scenes and provided just enough romance to satisfy, though I wish there had been a teensy bit more to the ending. Still, a fun afternoon read! (And isn't that a great cover?)

Here is the back copy:

France, 1371. The old Queen of France lies on her deathbed with a secret she will take to her grave: there is one true heir to the throne, one who would have the power to ally France and Scotland. But after her death, all that will be left are a few shreds of evidence revealing the stunning identity of her successor.

Flight attendant Skye Armstrong has heard the voice of warning before, and as she’s returning home from London, she recognizes the feeling of dread that accompanies her sixth sense. Walking from the airport terminal to get to her car, she pauses in the middle of the road. Her hesitation gives a Good Samaritan the split second he needs to pull her out of the path of a speeding car, saving her life. But her misfortunes are just beginning. When she arrives home, she discovers that Auntie Marjorie has been kidnapped, and cryptic instructions have been left behind: Skye must retrieve the contents of a safe deposit box and deliver it to the captors . . . No police. Her feelings of dread return.

What Skye discovers in the bank box is baffling: a single page. The ancient document is certainly valuable, and with no time to lose, she goes to the rendezvous to discover the next step. A cell phone rings beneath a park bench. She answers the call, and on the screen is a picture of Auntie, unconscious. Now the kidnapper demands Skye find two more pages or her aunt will die.

What secrets are hidden within the illuminated pages, and who believes they are worth killing for? And what role does the Good Samaritan play in all of it?
