Kaitlyn Chambers has agreed to go to the
Scarlet Oak plantation and rid it of the ghosts that refuse to
leave its halls. Kaitlyn knows this is the biggest assignment
she has ever accepted, but has no worries because she knows
her own powers and strengths. However she finds more at
Scarlet Oak then she expected upon arriving, including a
serial murderer.
Colin Winter is an FBI Assistant Deputy
Director who has been assigned to finish the investigation at
Scarlet Oak and find the murderer. Colin is strictly by the
book and does not believe in magic of any form. He is
surprised to arrive and find Kaitlyn, whom he had previously
met. He is even more surprised by the passion that arises
between them.
Kaitlyn and Colin both have assignments
to carry out and soon find that they will have to combine
their efforts to make it out alive. Kaitlyn can use her craft
to defeat the ghosts but will she be able to break through
Colin’s prejudice and gain the trust she needs to win the day?
Truth or Dare is the final
chapter of the Curse of the Midnight Star novels that are
based on a plantation in Louisiana. Truth or Dare
combines suspense, various types of magic and ghosts in a
story about a gemstone. Kaitlyn is a strong witch who
believes in her magic, and her ability to protect the living
and rid the plantation of ghosts. Colin is a straight-laced
cop who believes only in what can be seen and proven
scientifically. Colin must face and believe in Kaitlyn and
the idea that there is much more to the world then he ever
imagined possible. Truth or Dare has a great
suspenseful and magical plot that will keep you on the edge.
I found Kaitlyn and Colin to be strong and believable
individually. However, I just could not feel the romance that
sprung up between them. I did not get a feeling of trust
between them, no matter what the words said. Even though I
found the romance portion a bit lacking, I think the suspense
and magical portions of Truth or Dare make it
well worth the time to read. |
