Review

"The Belles and Beaux of Romance"A modern day gothic tale that will thrill you and chill you...plenty of sexual tension and wild romance to heat the blood as well.

Product Description

Two romantic tales of dark forces

and Christmas miracles...

The Twilight Before Christmas

Bestselling novelist Kate Drake, one of seven sisters with amazing powers of witchcraft, wants to open a bookstore in a charming but run-down mill in her California hometown. Decorated former U.S. Army Ranger Matt Granite, now a contractor, doesn't mind helping -- and getting closer to Kate. But when an earthquake exposes a crypt in the mill's foundation, a centuries-old evil threatens to destroy both Christmas and the gift of soul-searing passion Kate's hometown hero wants her to keep forever....

After The Music

Terrified by mysterious threats, Jessica Fitzpatrick takes her twin wards to the island mansion of their estranged father, Dillon Wentworth, a famous musician who shut out the world after a fire claimed his wife's life and left him disfigured. With Christmas approaching, the spark between Dillon and Jessica might light the future, but the evil machinations of those who share his wife's love of the occult may plunge the family into darkness -- unless a Christmas miracle occurs....

Experience the magic!

3.0 out of 5 stars ARGH!!!!!!!! Reprint Alert!, October 5, 2004

Argh!! Sheesh!! I bought this thinking it was another in the Witchy sisters Christmas tales. This is just a reprint of The Twilight Before Christmas, and After the Music is novella from another of her books.

These are good IF you missed them. But CHECK BEFORE YOU BUY, you might already have them! If you don't you will be paying for Duplicates. Personally, I love reprints, it lets us catch what we missed. HOWEVER, they need to STOP releasing them with new covers, new names and higher prices!

If like me you buy anything with Christine feehan's name on it, be advised you already have this book.

THE TWILIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS is a separate book and After the Music, is a novella in A VERY GOTHIC CHRISTMAS. I bought THE WICKED AND WONDEROUS thinking it was a new magical sisters story.

If you don't have those other books this one is good.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not one of her better books, October 5, 2004

By 

Book Wyrm (PA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Wicked and the Wondrous (The Twilight Before Christmas / After the Music) (Mass Market Paperback)

I bought this book for the second story, "After the Music". I already had purchased "The Twilight before Christmas" last year when it was first released. "After the Music" is not one of Christine Feehan's better stories. "The Twilight Before Christmas" is a good story and worth buying. But if you already own "Twilight", don't bother getting "The Wicked and the Wonderous" it just isn't up to par.
