Mikki, named after the Mikado Rose, has one passion in her
life -- roses. The women of her family have a special
affinity with them, each woman feeding them in her own
special, personal way. But men are nothing special; no man
has ever been able to measure up to Mikki's love of roses.
Then she begins dreaming of a man -- or a beast - she's not
exactly sure which.
One night, as she's walking in the Tulsa Rose Garden, her
dream seems to become real. Unknowingly, she's awakened the
guardian of the Realm of the Rose, part man, part beast.
And he knows she's the high priestess they've been waiting
for. She awakes to find herself in the Realm of the Rose
with a choice to make. Stay and be the high priestess to
the goddess Hecate in the Realm of the Rose, take a chance
on love with the guardian, or return home, forget
everything and go back to her humdrum life in Tulsa.
I loved GODDESS OF THE ROSE. The characters of Mikki and
the guardian are very original and interesting, as are the
accompanying cast members. The descriptions of Tulsa were
spot-on and research for the entire story was thorough.
This isn't your usual Beauty and the Beast story, it's
different and exciting, and you can almost smell the roses.
Of all Ms. Cast's Goddess books, this is my favorite. A
very good read.
When modern-day Mikki ends up in the strange Realm of the
Rose, Hecate has been waiting for her. So too has her
gorgeous guardian beast, who soon has Mikki swooning. But
to save the realm, Mikki will have to sacrifice her life-
giving blood.
