***Author Vickie McKeehan has been making stories with her imaginary friend Marty since the age of four. Though she had left Marty behind when she entered adolescence, she had learned the inside track of storytelling which later made her realize that telling stories got her noticed. Now when she is not dealing with life’s problems and everyday issues where she creates her own fantasy world where anything in her head is used as the storyline and we as the readers are best entertained and involved in it. Ms. McKeehan believed that as long as you read a book, of any genre, there is hope and fantasy and joy in life.
Kit is a sweet but determined woman who we cannot guess had a nightmarish childhood at first glance, has recovered and managed very well to ignore her past, but when her mother’s murder forces her to visit those demons again she shows a strength of character very few people can after suffering all that she did. Jake on the other hand has always been focused on becoming a successful businessman until one wrong decision forced him to reassess what he wants in life. He is perfect for her, giving her strength, support and love where she needs it, yet not treating her like a china doll. He is not afraid to admit his mistakes nor scared to face the unexpected as long as he has her. The supporting characters will be main characters in future two books. They have strong, distinctive characters which the author has written in such a perfect way that it neither steals the show away from Jake & Kit nor make me indifferent to read more about them. Ms. McKeehan has dared venture into a zone where not all is as it seems and wrote about the horrors and abuse children and adults alike may suffer in the hands of people ‘just evil’ without pulling punches, for which I salute her. It is a rare place for a romance author to go. Ending on a happy cliff-hanger, I for one, cannot wait to get my hands on the next book.
Please note: Not for the light-hearted.
