Innovative

The plot and the writing of this book was so good, you would want to keep on reading. I loved the dialogue between Victoria and Robert. They were very comical. Victoria has a mouth on her; she does not take mess from anybody. I was so intrigued by the first chapter that I knew this was going to be a good book. The mystery and the suspense added interesting twist to the book. If you want something new in a romance book, this is the book to get.

A Different and intriguing love story

This story was a refreshing story. A well written book with suspense about an arsonist and black on black prejudice. The romance was developed rather slowly, but thinking about it some more, it was more believable that way. I recommend that people read this book by Ms. Girard. Superbly written and entertaining.

Illusive Flame

Victoria Spenser has a past and a psychic ability to detect fires that she's trying to leave behind. A native of Jamaica she is forced to move to America to the only relative who will claim her, Aunt Janet. Aunt Janet works for Robert Braxton, an arson investigator with a painful past of his own. When Victoria goes to work for Robert as his maid she thinks she may have finally settled into a real life. But then the fires start and she goes to the police with her visions to offer help. Robert doesn't believe in psychics and is outraged that he is employing a woman who claims to be one. Ms. Girard delivers a refreshing story with Illusive Flame. A wonderfully researched and executed suspense centering around an arsonist and the prejudice of people who don't understand true psychic abilities. At one point, the intense storyline had me checking my own smoke detectors. The romance was very slow moving for me, seemingly forgotten sometimes as the desire to catch the arsonist took precedence. However, Victoria and Robert's relationship did develop into a believable joining at an extremely emotional time. I myself fell in love with Robert on page 247! Kudos to Ms. Girard on a very entertaining read that I would definitely recommend! Reviewed By: AC Arthur, Black Butterfly Review
