“She wanted to live a normal
life. He wanted to end it.”
Orphaned at birth and raised in a
cloistered convent, Lizzie Chambers knows nothing of her parentage; even her
name comes from the pages of a book.
When she is forced to leave the convent, she soon finds out life is
nothing like her cherished Austen novels. Trapped in an unhappy marriage and
questioning her own sanity, her only solace is her beloved flower shop,
Enchanted Garden.
When her husband is killed and
her store burns down, both under suspicious circumstances, Lizzie finds herself
fleeing a demon she has no clue how to stop or even why it has targeted her in
the first place.
But Gideon York knows. As a
member of the Order of the Triple Goddess he is charged with protecting Lizzie
and others like her from the dark forces seeking to destroy these rare and
powerful women.
When their growing attraction
tempts Gideon to break his sacred vow and Lizzie's own powers threaten her new
found family in the Order, she can no longer deny her destiny. To protect the people she loves, Lizzie must
find the courage to face the demon alone and risk the ultimate sacrifice . .
. her life.
~MY REVIEW~
The
Enchanted One
Overall Rating **** Stars
I enjoyed this
book, I liked the concept of the storyline. It flowed really well. Lizzie was
adopted at birth, she has no idea where she comes from. Her husband was killed
and she lost her shop. She has to fight so much stuff in her life. I liked when Gideon comes into the picture.
He was a wonderful character. I hope there is another book in this series,
because I really enjoyed it. This was also the first book I’ve read from this
author, and I thought she was brilliant! Great job.

Slowly, she became aware of another much stronger sensation, a
magnetic pull coming from some far off point in the fathomless sky. It
resonated like a beacon, triggering in her a longing tinged with sorrow, a deep
and frantic need to follow this pulse like a heartbeat calling her home.
Something wasn’t right. She felt it in her bones and the way the
small hairs on the back of her neck stood up.
“As a small child I dreamed of growing up
to be a chestnut mare. I was terribly disappointed when I found out people
couldn’t magically transform into animals but I got over it by immersing myself
in the world of fairy tales and thus began my lifelong passion for reading and
make-believe.”
