A Trick of the Light

this story was very intriguing. This is a true "can't put it down". The characters are believable and since I tend to "save" everyone and everything, I cheered on our heroine!

Brenda, I'm sorry you felt Harriet's review was too revealing, however, she really only touched on a few of the major points of the book. There is so much more involved in the story! Hope you'll give it a try anyway!

I loved this book. Felt the frustration of both people. Couldn't figure out who was trying to kill her, and was really surprised at the end. Had a great understanding of the homeless, there where times where I held my breath, and was so afraid for the people. This is one of my favorite books. Kept wanting to read the last page to see how it turned out, but didn't want to spoil it. Total surprise at the end. Great book

Could not put it down. I love the couple and rooted for them through out the book. I understood why she had to go back and finish her past before she started her new life. I held my breath in as I was so afraid for her near the end, then I cried at the very end because it was so beautiful,it was just the way I would have wanted it to end. Don't want to give the plot away and spoil it for someone else. But I would read this book again, and it does sit on my keeper shelf for a future read. I recommend it to every one I meet.

Wanda McKain leaves her child Teddy with her bewildered mother at the nursing home. Her spouse Dylan soon sees her, but Wanda hits the accelerator of her car to escape from him. Dylan stays in pursuit only to watch his wife lose control, hit pedestrian Chloe Samm, and crash. Wanda dies and Chloe has a near death experience in which Wanda pleads with her to keep Teddy safe.When Chloe awakens she mumbles Teddy's name loud enough for Dylan to demand an explanation. She tells him what happened when she thought she saw shades of heaven. Dylan thinks she is either involved with the abduction of his son or is a lunatic. Chloe feels her quest is to protect Teddy even though she has no earthly idea from whom or where the child is. As Dylan begins to know Chloe, he falls deeply in love with her, a feeling she reciprocates. However, it will not need a psychic to predict that his past has taught him that relationships are harmful and temporary unless Chloe can prove that assumption false.Fans of paranormal romances will feel they are ON THE WAY TO HEAVEN reading Tina Wainscott's latest winner, A TRICK OF THE LIGHT. The story line is filled with action and intrigue, but the charcaters make the plot. Chloe is a kindhearted person willing to reach out to anyone. Dylan is a wounded duck who will remind readers of Harry Chapin's classic Cat's in the Cradle until Chloe gives him a second chance at redemption. Ms. Wainscott makes the unbelievable feel real and right in such an exciting manner that her audience will want her next novel to be published tomorrow.Harriet Klausner
