Book Reviews of A Stranger's Touch

Book Review: More like 2 1/2 stars....
Summary: 2 Stars

A trap has been set... and Tempest Storm has fallen right into it!

As one of the Aisling triplets, Tempest is gifted with a psychic power. Her power is in her hands as she can touch an object and know its history as well as information about others who have touched it or owned it. Someone evil has been stalking her family (see AT THE EDGE for more details) and Tempest senses that the mysterious Viking brooch offers answers... and a chance for healing her past. Marcus Greystone has never forgotten the one night he spent with Tempest and the brooch is the perfect bait, particularly since he wants help solving the cold case murder of his parents. But will he understand when everything in his own life turns upside down?

I absolutely adored the first book in this series, AT THE EDGE. The storyline and the mysterious evil presence threatening the family intrigued me and made me anxious for the second book, A STRANGER'S TOUCH. However, the promise of the first book seems lost in the confused muddle of A STRANGER'S TOUCH.

Tempest should be a likable character, a woman haunted by the youthful transgressions of her power. Instead, she is so antagonistic to Marcus that it's almost impossible to believe these two characters are a couple. Worse yet, her powers seem to appear almost in a magical *poof* in such chaotic, random moments that it's hard to believe her powers are supposedly increasing with her involvement with Marcus.

Unfortunately, the oddest moments of A STRANGER'S TOUCH are impossible to fully discuss without revealing spoilers. Suffice to say, the ending comes seemingly out of nowhere as the resolution to the mysterious evil stalking the triplets should have been a huge event. Instead, it just left me cold. Hopefully, the third book in the trilogy will return to the success found in the first book.

Summary of A Stranger's Touch

Tempest, Claire, and Leona: triplets blessed?or cursed?with a special extra sense they would each deny, given the chance . . .

Tempest was born with the uncanny ability to learn everything about an object?or even a person?just by the touch of her naked hands. But she knows this gift comes at a price, so she protects herself by keeping those she loves at a distance, But when a sinister enemy threatens all that she holds dear, Tempest is forced to reach out to Marcus Greystone, who she once touched willingly . . . and with passionate abandon.

Marcus has never forgotten the sensuous night he and Tempest shared?before she left his bed without a word. Now that she needs his help, Marcus isn't letting her go easily. It's his chance to show Tempest that his touch can also electrify. But a gathering storm of violence is following Tempest, and a killer waits to get his hands on her . . .
