Book Description

0955967910 978-0955967917 June 22, 2009 2nd revised
There are many sides to Hyacinth Dickinson - aka H - all intriguing; none predictable.
Her public life shows the world a respected gynaecologist. Her private life is deliciously different; dark, intoxicating.  A rich, powerful woman; a devious diamond smuggler and an artful witch who loves women - literally - despite sporting a trophy husband. Yet H is lonely; she wants a soul mate.

So, she casts a powerful spell to manifest her perfect woman. A woman to match her desire for danger, diamonds and sex. When H meets talented surgeon Beth McConnell - the newest recruit to her husband's surgical team - she believes Beth is The One.

H is excited. She has great plans for Beth; she will be Beth's first lesbian lover. But, first she has to entice Beth into her web. And, she will go to any lengths to do so. 

No matter that Beth has always quelled her attraction to women and totally blanks her unwanted and scary physic ability.  She is unprepared for the impact H makes on her and H's sexual advances. Confused, and against her better judgement, Beth agrees to go to London with H: she can't seem to say 'no' to the woman. 

But, fate intervenes. Beth meets her screen idol Lou Scott on the London bound train. Their mutual attraction is electric. 

Will Beth and Lou find happiness together or will H destroy them?

The story is set against the backdrop of Northern England, London, Cannes, LA and Scotland.

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect lazy sunday afternoon luxury..., September 20, 2009

This review is from: Beautiful Strangers (Paperback)
I recently read the original version, and found it almost impossible to put down. I just finished reading this revised edition and it was even better than the original. This thrilling novel has everything; humor, steamy sex, romance and danger. The characters are extremely likeable (even Hyacinth in the beginning), memorable and easy to relate to. I found myself being pulled into Hyacinth's world and loved every minute of it. It was one of those rare novels that you wish would go on forever..Ellen Dean is a talented writer and I can't wait for Beyond Midnight

No character development. Story line wasn't fleshed out or well written. I found it boring and unrelatable. I kept hoping it would get interesting, but from the first page to the last, I found it boring.
