This book kinda reminds me of Diana Gabaldon's. Not just time travel and stuff either. The book starts off kinda slow, and then takes your breath away, but it isn't padded and you can't skip the first 50 pages either. I've read it twice now and on the second read, I really understood why she took it slow starting out. She packs a lot into this book and you just can't skim it and catch the meanings on all four levels. highly recommended.

Author has an unusual voice. Good characterization. Really good plot with a lot of turns you don't expect. Reads like it comes right out of the headlines. Recommend it if you like romance. Highly recommend it if you like suspense and paranormal elements.

I don't know what I expected, but it wasn't this. I didn't expect to be glued to the page. To not want to stop reading long enough to answer the phone. Tedder's got a sharp mind. Every time I thought I knew where she was going with this, she went somewhere else--I love it when that happens--and I said, wow, but it fit, you know? It seemed inevitable and right and yet I never saw it coming. You can bet I'll be waiting for her next book!

I was so impressed with this book. I love reading new-age thrillers and it's a wonderful treat to find one by an author who is a gifted writer and familiar with new-age principles. By the end of the book, I felt as if I knew the characters as well as members of my family--and they were extremely interesting and adventuresome. I also loved the blend of the spiritual and physical aspects. Outstanding job, Ms. Tedder! This has to be a series, and I hope the next one comes out soon.

Format: Paperback
L. Madison Steele works as a Procurement Officer at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida. Madison is so good at her job, her inbox never empties as priority projects are always given to her. Her current assignment involves letting Project Andromeda out for bid. However, that abruptly ends when Air Force Officer of Special Investigations Agent Austin Wait believes she stole the top secret biological warfare secrets that are intricate to Project Andromeda.
Initially Madison wants to only prove her innocence although the evidence points otherwise. Only Lieutenant Jon Colter believes her, but then again he loves Madison even if she remains oblivious to his feelings. Jon has inherited psychic powers from his mother that he will reluctantly need if he is to keep Madison safe.
When this reviewer heard that this novel's story line centers on a New Age espionage thriller with an infant to muck up the works, my reaction was: James Bond in reincarnation (not in terms of Connery to Moore, etc., but a previous life Bond) changing diapers. Instead ACCESS is an exciting tale that makes readers believe in the authenticity of various New Age elements. The espionage subplot works because not only are the characters wonderful and real, but the apparent setup of Madison is cleverly designed. Adding in a look at the Defense Department's Acquisition Corps, administers of a business probably greater than all the Fortune 500 combined, add to this feel of reality to a fabulous tale. Fans fortunate enough to read this novel will want to read more works by Lorna Tedder.

I enjoyed this book very much. It struck me on many different levels and I am not sure I could do it justice with a review like Ms. Klausner's but Ms. Klausner's explanation of the plot and the people in this book is very good and was enough to entice me to read the book. Sometimes when I read vague reviews [not Ms. Klausner's], I wonder if the reviewer really read the book or not, so please allow me to tell you my favorite scene and why it was so powerful. It takes place on page 159 and 160 when I first see Madison with her daughter on a farm in Georgia before special agent Austin Waite shows up to take her back. As a father of young children I could not understand in the first ten chapters how Madison could have given away her daughter or why but it broke my heart when I saw them together and I realized how much she loved her child and how much Madison had sacrificed her own personal happiness to save the world. After I read that part I awoke my children and gave them a good hug because I don't ever want to put my career ahead of my family again and that is exactly what I have been doing. You know what's funny? I got the book because of the biological warfare spy plot. The last thing I expected was the kind of emotion I found in this book or in myself.

I wanted to like this book. The reviews are all so glowing that I wonder if I were shipped the wrong book. The writing is amateurish, clumsy and cliché-ridden. The characters are so wooden and false that there is no suspension of disbelief. This book is just so bad...a complete waste of paper.
