Romance Paranormal

Alice North is a light-talent who can make things disappear. After the death of her Marriage of Convenience husband, she's barely surviving by making her living performing a magic act with her dust bunny Houdini. Following her final performance at a rundown theater, Alice is accosted in the alley. She escapes by becoming invisible. But tycoon Drake Sebastian is also in the alley. Being day- blind due to a lab accident a few years back, Drake is the only person who can see Alice when she disappears. He's come seeking her special talent to assist him with the problems that have been occurring in the Preserve on Rainshadow Island. It seems that two Old World crystals are missing, which is causing a paranormal storm that's becoming progressively disastrous for the people on the island. Drake believes Alice's talent, along with his, can avert the catastrophe, but he will not take her to the island unless she agrees to a Marriage of Convenience. From past experience, Alice knows that MOCs aren't all that binding, so she agrees. Little does she know that Drake feels differently about their MOC, or that the red-hot storm brewing on the island will also ignite a burning passion between her and Drake. The question is whether they, as well as the island, will survive. Returning to mysterious Rainshadow Island and the futuristic world of Harmony is always a thrilling adventure, even with all the problems to confront. The addition of characters from previous novels rounds out the enjoyable experience, making DECEPTION COVE another wonderful addition to this entertaining series. Jayne Castle again proves her writing prowess with DECEPTION COVE.

SUMMARY

In the world of Harmony, Rainshadow Island is home to a mysterious preserve, secrets that have been kept for centuries, and a treasure worth killing for… As a light-talent, Alice North has the rare ability to make things disappear, including herself—a gift that comes in handy during her magic act with her dust bunny Houdini. Business mogul Drake Sebastian is day-blind, since his sight was nearly destroyed in a lab accident. But he’s the one man who can see Alice when she disappears — and he needs her. On Rainshadow Island, two dangerous Old World crystals are missing, igniting a paranormal storm. Drake thinks Alice is the key to finding them, and proposes they head there, but only after a Marriage of Convenience. Alice’s honeymoon on Rainshadow is guaranteed to be memorable, as the island—and the passion between her and Drake — is about to explode…
