This review is from: Lone Star Magic (The Magic Series, Book 4) (Mass Market Paperback)

I was really excited in the first few pages of this book. It starts out with the hero trying to save the heroine. Nothing quite like an opening like that to make you want to stay with the reading.

But just as suddenly as the opening grabs you, I found that I didn't understand what was happening as Alrick lay covered in ashes while Carly Roberts ran to call 911. It took nearly five more pages before I realized this was a fantasy/contemporary crossover, and while I've read many of those, none of those left me as puzzled or as unhappy as this one had. In fact, I had trouble getting through the entire book, confused by the characters' intents and stories.

Carly Roberts is a widow, trying to make her ranch survive when Pirnce Alrick of Rune, a Fae, comes to save her. And that's all about I can surmise from my reading. There is some attraction on both parts, it is very difficult to ignore both character's physical attributes.

I don't know if I'll pick this book up to try it again, but it had so much promise to begin with. This book is a part of a series, but I am not sure if the characters are referenced in the other books.
