4.5 Stars

I bought this book for my Kindle not long after I read Lost Legacy. I find Dana’s books well written and fast-paced. As soon as you start reading the story just grabs you and you don’t want to put the book down.

Stephanie Gage is forced to seek out an old violin when her former employer, who has developed an obsession with her, kidnaps her father and puts her brother into the hospital. He has been manipulating her so that she might someday come to love him.

Her former flame, Tate Fuego is also after this same man. His sister is in love with him and trying to prove herself by finding this violin before Stephanie does. Tate has a problem with prescription drugs that he is overcoming daily but Stephanie doesn’t want to give him the time of day for fear she might get her heart hurt in the process. Stephanie is forced to let Tate help her in the search for the violin. Of course, she is not happy she has to deal with Tate along with all the stress of her father’s kidnapping.

I think it was the complexity of the plot, the momentum of the storytelling and the fantastic writing that really made this book shine. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

I paid for this book with my own money.
