Review
Lexi Monroe's photography is renowned for its subject -- the people of South America, especially the children. She loved her job, until she met El Ladron, the driving element behind the stealing and selling of children. It is El Ladron that scares Lexi and forces her into a self-exile from the world she loves. Recognizing her own fears, Lexi decides to try Chane Callahan's survival training class, hoping to put herself back on track. True to his soldier background, Chane is at first skeptical of Lexi as a reporter/photographer, but he soon realizes that this little lady is a resourceful, talented woman. She is also the most beautiful thing he has ever laid eyes on, and he decides that she might be well worth the chase, if he can remember how to do the chasing. There is no denying the attraction that builds between Chane and Lexi. Chane realizes that Lexi is fighting a fear that holds her very soul in torment. She forces herself to hold him at a distance, not wanting him to get too close, too personal. But Lexi's eyes cannot hide her feelings, her desires; and Chane's gentle touch and soft words are a welcome change from the pain she has seen. El Ladron tracks Lexi through a grandmother searching for her lost grandchild, a child taken after her parents were brutally murdered by him. Lexi is trapped between protecting Chane and his family and protecting herself. When El Ladron finds her, nothing will stop him from destroying everything Lexi holds dear -- her home, her life, her loves. When he takes Chane's family and holds them in exchange for Lexi, there is only one answer -- she must face her demon. Chane and Lexi have faced their own nightmares, their own losses. Now they must face their greatest fear -- losing each other before they've even had time to realize what they are losing. Lexi's only prayer now is for the protection of Chane's daughter and brother, who are both in the hands of the devil himself. Her new fear is that Chane will not forgive her for leading this beast into his life. Can a contemporary romance supply you with all the action, thrills, and passion of other romance novels? Ask Sharon Mignerey. With her book, A Sacred Trust, the answer is a resounding YES! Sharon has already proven that this novel is exceptional by winning the RWA Golden Heart Award for Single Title Release last year under the title Child of Hope. This book not only provides adventure and thrills, but it also brings to life two of the most compelling lovers to walk the written page.Sharon Mignerey blazes in her first novel. A new romantic star is on our horizon. This is a romance that will thrill you to the bones! Riveting and powerful! A swift-moving emotional roller coaster with all the elements of a spy-thriller. The romantic tension between Lexi and Chane is robust and hearty. It's nice to see a heroine with such guts and a hero with such tenderness. Here's hoping that Sharon keeps her 'sacred trust' to us by continuing to write such absorbing stories.Karen Ellington -- Copyright © 1994-97 Literary Times, Inc.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Well developed and Emotional,
By Jessica (Littleton, CO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Sacred Trust (Paperback)
Sharon Mignery has an art of expressing emotion through her writing. This book adresses a very real and neglected issue, and it will cause people to think. The conflict is very well developed, and the villein is realistic. Her heroine and hero have realistic conflicts, and you will be sitting at the edge of your seat at during many parts, and even when you aren't, you will be enjoying her style of writing and getting fired up about what some people actually do in this world. I think you won't regret reading this book if you do!

This review is from: A Sacred Trust (Paperback)
Ms. Mignerey is a new and very welcome star in the galaxy of romance writers. Her characters, Lexi and Chane, are very human, loving, tender, stubborn, exasperating; all together wonderful. This book brought tears, laughter, excitement -- all of those wonderful emotions that make a book great! Add to that the gripping suspense to make the book perfect. This one is a keeper

For Sharon Mignerey's first book, it's absolutely wonderful. She starts you off immediately on a cliff and you can't put down the book. This story is extraordinary and is well written. Highly recomended.
