5.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable paranormal tale from Brant, October 9, 2004

This review is from: In Sight of the Enemy (Family Secrets: The Next Generation) (Mass Market Paperback)

Silhouette Intimate Moments gives us another in the series in the Family Secrets: Next Generation, written by different authors. This one is by Kylie Brant and it's a strong tale, but the editors at SIM need to be careful. I am seeing a slightly disturbing "muting" of talented writers' voices. There are some great talent turning out series for Silhouette, but their distinctive voices are being overlaid with the editors own voice in order to get these tales down to the shorter length of SIMS. It's making all the books "sound" as if they are written by the same person.

It's hard for writers to take the story "bible" the characters laid out by a line, the plot lines and let their own inner magic shine, but Kylie Brant delivers a good solid tale in this line. In this one, Cassie Donovan, Hawk Donovan's twin, is in love with Dr. Shane Farhold. She has long known her dreams were not just dreams but visions. And she is terrified the dreams of seeing Shane shot, possibly killed, push her to warn him against his trip oversees to help in Afghanistan. He does not listen to Cassie's warning. When at a fair, a Gypsy fortuneteller warns of the same danger, he accuses Cassie of setting the whole thing up. They have an argument, and break up. Shane goes on to Afghanistan. And is shot. Weeks later, he returns to find a note from Cassie saying they must talk.

Cassie is at Hawk's ranch alone when a man and woman come to the house, asking Cassie to show them the horses. Something warns her of going with them, but
seeing Shane's truck coming down the road, they rush off. Cassie dismisses the strange incident, because she has to face Shane with the news she is pregnant.

She knows Shane never wanted to see her again, but she feels he has a right to know about the child. As she is breaking the news to him, Hawk calls frantically
trying to warn her to run, to get away from the farm. He warns her about a woman who is going to try and kidnap her. When Hawk learns Shane is there, he tells him to take Cassie and run. The call is interrupted; someone cut the phone and electrical lines.

Cassie and Shane are forced to flee the ranch on horseback, with the kidnappers on their trail. Shane still does not want to believe Cassie about her ability, but he must learn to turn in things that cannot be seen if he is to save their lives.

This review is from: In Sight of the Enemy (Family Secrets: The Next Generation) (Mass Market Paperback)

Cassie Donovan has the gift of sight but Shane Farhold doesn't believe in her abilities, hence big problem. The storyline is predictable but still enjoyable with it's twist of murder and chemical manipulation of unwilling people. The intrigue is captivating.
