I've given this book four stars out of five because of the disappointing ending. Right up to the very end, Lyra has spent all her time with Cruz challenging him and resisting him and sassing him. A heroine with spunk, making the man she fell in love with--and was betrayed by--fight for her love. But the moment, the very moment when he declares that he's been in love with her all this time, she melts like an ice sculpture in the desert and becomes a wimp of a woman. Not a satisfying ending in my opinion.”
“Another good story of characters on Harmony!”

Yes | No“As time goes by, the people of Harmony continue to develop new and interesting psy-talents. Lyra Dore, for example, has the unusual ability to resonate with amethyst amber, which leads her to the discovery of a valuable cache of amber relics. Her find is confiscated by a powerful amber company, and the CEO Cruz Sweetwater is left trying to break through her bitterness to win the heart of the only woman with whom his psy-powers resonate.
I continue to look forward to each new Harmony adventure, which, like this one, is exciting, suspenseful and steamingly romantic. As these stories relate back to the Jayne Ann Krentz/Amanda Quick Arcane Society novels, they get more and more intriguing, and I always find listening to them a pleasure. A related amusement is following the Arcane Society's detective Fallon Jones' on-going investigation on Twitter.

“I liked this book, It was alittle slow starting off but I loved the dust bunny story in this one. It's not as good as some of her other books but I would read it again! ”

Whether writing as Jayne Ann Krentz, Amanda Quick or Jayne Castle, it is always us (hero/heroine) against the world. In a world where most times the antagonists are each other, it is a refreshing change to have the couple be a couple-together. Bravo, JC, bravo.”

Once again we visit the planet of Harmony and get to enjoy the chills and thrills of a mysterious place with a wonderful sense of suspending reality. Lyra Dore made the find of the decade in the newly discovered rain forest. Amethyst ruins, so rare that no one knows just what it will do or how to work it. But Lyra knows how to tune it and she makes the big mistake of letting her boyfriend know about her find and he steals it from her. She is left with huge bills from trying to sue to reclaim her claim and only the artistically talented dust bunny, Vincent to comfort her. Amber, Inc. CEO Cruz Sweetwater hadn't set out to hurt Lyra and his ability to sense that Lyra is his true love only complicates things. The project is in danger and peoples lives hang in the balance. Only by joining forces can Lyra and Cruz survive. ”
