Review

Praise for The Choice, the first book in the Walk the Right Road Series:

From Romance Junkies
"A modern day crime with all the right elements to make the book enticing. Lust, love, lies and trust are perfectly matched to just a spark of magic. Now I must anxiously await the newest edition of THE CHOICE."

With her finger on the pulse of human emotion and life choices very closely linked with everyday issues, Ms. Eckhart is spot on with the chemistry between our hero and heroine. Their lives are emotionally drained and to the brink of hopelessness, however their determination to stand up for what is right made me want to stand up and yell BRAVO! This is what humanity is all about! The darkness surrounding our characters metaphorically and physically bring realism to a world that does exist in society, and the way she masterfully works out each detail was brilliant.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Autumn Review for The Choice March 14, 2012

By The Autumn Review

Format:Kindle Edition

Summary:
Marcie Hollis has learned from a young age that she has a strong spiritual connection. She feels one of those connections is with her boyfriend Dan. However, since becoming involved with Dan, her spiritual training has fallen behind. Then Marcie heads down to New Orleans from Seattle. This was supposed to be a trip with Dan, but when they get to the airport he tells her the plans have changed and she'll be going on her own. She's left stunned and devastated that he won't be going with her. After she arrives in New Orleans, she waits for her bags and while there gets mugged. It just so happens that DEA Agent Sam Carre is standing right behind her when this happens.

Sam needed to come home to regroup after a failed drug bust. Now he's a witness to a crime. The problem is, he's trying to help the lady who fell victim to the crime and she doesn't remember her name. Sam decides to care for her until she can regain her memories. Her situation with the mugging leaves him with many questions that make him feel that she may be linked to his failed investigation.

Marcie and Sam develop a romantic relationship while they try to solve the puzzle. Once Marcie has her memory back, she goes to Sam to come clean. Will he be able to go against his beliefs and keep her secret or will he turn her in?

My Take:
One of my favorite things to do is problem solving. I don't mean that in a therapy session sense. I mean, let's figure out who done it. I was looking forward to this book because it combines both romance and suspense/mystery. I appreciated the moral of the story. You have different paths in this life to choose from, it's up to you to make the right choice. Marcie was certainly headed down a destructive path, but fortunately was able to use her abilities to help her make that right choice. The choice was love in this case.

The story was a bit slow to start for me, but began to pick up around 35% into the book. There were some additional lags through out the story, but I felt that the plot was easy to follow along with. I liked both Sam and Marcie. I actually would have liked to have seen more romance between them. Another character I really liked was Jesse. I liked his no holds barred attitude and his ease with Marcie.

I was a bit disappointed with the ending, but since it's part of a series, I assume that the journey with Dan and Lance is far from over. Overall, I would say that if you are looking for a book that is focused on mystery and suspense with just a touch of romance to add into the mix, this is a great read for you. 3.5 out of 5 stars

4.0 out of 5 stars Contemporary Romance August 6, 2011

By Chels

Format:Kindle Edition

The first quality the reader will notice about this novel is the amount of events occurring and meshing together all at once. The reader will experience a drug bust, haughty and cruel drug lord, dirty cops, dark entities, etc... Marcie, the main character, is smack dab in the middle of all of this. Marcie is being utilized as a mule for her boyfriend, Dan, who turns out to have some magical persuasive powers of his own. Sam, an agent working to nab Dan and stop the operation, sees and instantly wants Marcie for himself. Marcie is one of those odd, but interesting characters who can see dead people. She is a sympathetic character while Sam is the strong, handsome hero. It doesn't take long for this story to get fairly steamy, there is a little bit of sex (for 18+ readers). The novel is predictable in many ways, but there are a few surprising twists thrown in. The ending is satisfying and expected. This novel is recommended for adult readers who enjoy contemporary romance.

Romantic suspense with a mystical, supernatural slant. This book has well developed characters, lots of action and a fast-paced plot full of twists and turns that kept me riveted to the last page. Highly recommended!

More About the Author

2012 was an amazing year in the publishing world for me. And it started with, The Forgotten Child, which landed on the Amazon bestseller list for western romance and romance series. And with the publication of each novel and short story each one made its way to the top 10 for its respective genre. 2013 has seen me posted in the top 100 authors on Amazon for Romantic Suspense and Mystery/Thrillers, Police Procedural.

Where did it all begin? In 2008, I published my first novel, The Captain's Lady, a Contemporary Military Romance through The Wild Rose Press. I have a fierce writing schedule with four books scheduled for release this year and six short stories.

I write three genres, edgy romantic suspense (Walk the Right Road Series), western romance (Finding Love ~ The Outsider Series, and young adult mystery and I warn my readers to expect the unexpected. I'm the mother of three children, one a special needs child. We live on a small Island in the Pacific Northwest where I advocate for the environment, and rights of special needs children. And somewhere in my busy schedule I do find time to write. I encourage you to contact me by email, I do answer every email I receive.
Stay tuned. There is more to come from Walk the Right Road Series and Finding Love ~ The Outsider Series.

And to my readers and all of you who have shared my stories with your family and friends, a big heartfelt thank you.Email: [e-mail]
