Salvage diver Zachary Robinson has been hired to find a
yacht that disappeared in the Caribbean near the island of
Fernandino. Zach has always had a special knack for finding
boats that have gone down, but this current job has thrown
him a curve. None of the local divers will go to the sunken
yacht with him because they believe an angry god has warned
them off.
While looking for a place to get a drink, Zach sees an ad
for Magic Anna, a psychic performing at a local club.
Irresistibly drawn to her, Zach sits through both her
shows, then learns where she's staying. Anna knows he's
there, she's felt him all evening. And even more -- she can
hear him in her head. Zach is determined to find out why
she's so important, and even though Anna is afraid, she has
to know, too.
But there's more going on than they can imagine. A priest
in a local religion arranged to have Anna hired at the club
because he wants her for himself. He's convinced he can use
her psychic ability to make himself into a god. Anna and
Zach could become very powerful if their powers bond, and
the priest certainly doesn't want that to happen.
Unbeknownst to Anna and Zach, they're on the hit list of
the last remaining member of the Crandall Consortium, a
think-tank that manipulated their minds when they were
children, before arranging to have them adopted. The
consortium no longer exists, but the after-effects linger,
including the man who wants them both dead, not only to
hide his involvement, but because he believes they are
monsters -- they and others like them. Anna and Zach are
determined to survive, however, and soon learn that the
passion they have for one another intensifies their mental
powers. The stronger their bond becomes, the better their
chances are of escaping the fate their enemies plan for
them.
BEYOND FEARLESS is the second installment in another
winning series by Ms. York. As usual, her characters are
very real, their situation very believable. She's woven
threads of the paranormal world through the one we all
recognize and made it seem completely normal. Their minds
might be paranormal, but their hearts are all-too human,
and their connection with one another is the ultimate in
love at first sight. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, as I
knew I would. A very good read.
Anna Ridgeway's mind-reading nightclub act takes her to
the Caribbean Island of Grand Fernandino. She knows she's
being stalked by sinister forces. But she doesn't realize
that her destiny hangs in the balance when she meets diver
Zachary Robinson. Zach and Anna are inexplicably and
powerfully drawn to each other--sexually and psychically.
As the physical intimacy between them deepens, so do their
psi talents. But island shaman, Raoul San Donato, has
plans of his own for Anna. Already a powerful force on
Grand Fernandino, he plans to kill Zach and bind Anna to
him in a shocking ceremony that will make her his consort
and consolidate his hold over the island.
