From Barnes & Noble:
Darci Monroe overcame a childhood of neglect with an ebullient spirit,
a positive attitude...and extraordinary determination. Now the
resourceful young woman, hired as Adam Montgomery's personal assistant,
devotes more than just professional attention to this devastatingly
handsome millionaire. But one thing bars Adam from accepting Darci's
love: he is intent on discovering the secret of his parents'
disappearance, for she possesses the otherworldly abilities needed to
help him fight a terrifying mistress of the dark arts. What Darci ends
up offering is a gift greater than Adam ever hoped for, for Darci loves
with all her heart, and all her soul, forever...
My opinion:
This was kind of a fairy tale and kind of a modern romance. The cover says " A Novel of Good and Evil, Love and Hope". And that pretty much covers it. I liked the main characters, Darci and Adam. I would have liked to know more about Putnam and Darci's mother. I had to stop reading several times because I was afraid it was going to get gory, but it never did. I was more impressed by the beginning of the book than the end. It kind of fizzled out with two epilogues instead of telling the story straight. Overall, a good book.

Would it encourage you to read others by the same author
or would you just say good book and move on to someone else?
