"Sensually Touched - Start of Great New Series!"
Dr. Kara Cantrell fled a supernatural malevolence seven
years ago when she witnessed the brutal murder of her
husband. She settled in the small town of Zorro thinking it
would be a good safe place to raise her son Alex and
settled into living a normal life, away from the threats of
evil. All seemed right with her world until the day when
she stepped from her truck and felt the 'power'. Gazing at
the tall dark stranger in town she recognized him for what
he was -- a Sentinel. Kara knew the danger and the risk,
and she wanted no part of him, his powers, or any influence
he would have over Alex. Damien Morgan was an Atlantian Sentinel soul born human --
mortal but with supernatural powers to track down and bring
Karmic justice to evil Belians. He knew at once that Kara
recognized and felt his power; knew also that she was not a
Sentinel but a Conductor who could help him find the
Belian. More than the woman though, Damien sensed a much
more powerful energy emanating from the boy, and knew he
was an initiate - a fledgling Sentinel who without guidance
would easily fall prey to the Belian evil. Damien forcefully inserted himself into Kara and Alex's
life mainly to protect but also knowing that with her help
he would fare a greater chance of discovering where the
evil Belian dwelt. Kara knew the dangers of emotional
involvement with a Sentinel, knew Damien's purpose of
rooting out the evil was dangerous and she could not afford
to have her heart broken again. But the pull Damien had on
her was so intense that falling in love was too hard to
resist. *** This was an amazing story. Damien was a terrific lead
with a take charge no nonsense attitude and was not about
to be ignored. Fabulously sensual, the concept of how a
Sentinel and Conductor's relations empowered the Sentinel's
chances of tracking the enemy made for a truly steamy tale.
The concept and characters were developed extremely well,
and the brief background of terms describing these new
beings was fabulously helpful in giving this reader a
better understanding of what was going on and who was who
in this authors new world. Breathing life into the
characters with a deft touch the reader will become
immersed immediately into the story, feeling the terror,
the heartbreak and the joy of the characters as they began
to work towards the common good. Personally, I loved the
entire concept of how these people came from the lost land
of Atlantis and give this author high marks for originality
and creativity. Fans of Spangler's Sci-Fi Fantasy are going
to be mesmerized by this sensual new series.
