Great review for Eva! “Eva gave me chills.”

 

Great review for “Eva!” a riveting romantic suspense with a supernatural twist.

So thrilled at one of the first reviews coming in for my romantic suspense novel, Eva! Many thanks to Cindy White.

“Connection isn’t that what we are all searching for? Connection to family, to a lover, to animals, to nature. I love to read. Reading is one of my passions but I don’t often read a book that gives me actual chills. Eva gave me chills. Eva’s connection to animals and nature is foremost in her psyche, she has always wanted to help animals by being a veterinarian. Eva is calmed and centered by her connection to the ocean. Her mother planned to become a marine biologist and instilled in her a love for nature and animals. Tragically, her mother was taken from Eva when she was very young, raised by her great aunt, she has protected herself emotionally by letting few people into her life.

The writer speaks eloquently of grief, the memory of the emotion of grief and how that emotion can lead to the feeling of not belonging anywhere. Eva’s work at an animal shelter leads to an amazing discovery about herself and her abilities. The love of a good man, friends, newly discovered family and her amazing ability to connect help her to find herself and new confidence in her future. A truly wonderful book!”

Top 1% Reviewer on Goodreads give The Twain 5 stars!

Top 1% Goodreads reviewer gives a wonderful 5-star review of “The Ravenstone: The Twain,” (part 2 of our Ravenstone series).

REVIEW: “Younger readers, this one’s for you! (But don’t be surprised if the rest of the family wants to read it, too!)

Diane Solomon and Mark Carey have teamed up to pen another middlegrade fantasy that will rocket readers into the world of time travel, evil villains and a desperate attempt by twins Aidan and Nadia to keep their mother safe. Armed with a magical stone and their own special powers, these two young heroes must depend on each other through danger, adventure and slipping in and out of different eras, all while not changing the future a little too much, all while risking being trapped in the past with no way to get home.

THE RAVENSTONE: PART 2: THE TWAIN is written for younger readers to enjoy, understand and relate to, because, really, just how cool would it be to travel through time? Fuel for the imagination created in a rapid-fire pace without getting bogged down in too many details, positive role models, dilemmas to solve and even some socially conscious topics to wrestle with, delightful reading for the entire family to share and discuss!

I received a complimentary copy from Diane Solomon! This is my honest and voluntary review.”

Many thanks to lovely Dianne Bylo!

Book Reviews: REVIEW EXCERPT:

“There were honestly so many interesting things in this book!  It kept me wanting to read and I found myself trying to sneak in extra times to read a chapter or two.  As a matter of fact, I “went to bed” early so that I could finish it last night!

I will certainly be recommending this book!  Not just to children or middle graders, but to anyone who enjoys reading science fiction, fantasy, action, magical type genres.”

REVIEW EXCERPT:

“Diane Solomon and Mark Carey have made a formidable team creating a very original story line that links together very well. The use of a mirror and twins is very clever but also do check out the twins names and see if you can find anything unusual about them.  It is this attention, the going that extra mile, that makes this book very special. The detail of what life would be like in the past is super, with  writing that is very appropriate for middle grade readers. There are times in the book that will give an adrenaline rush but won’t leave the young readers frightened. This book really gave me goose bumps  which I have got again just writing about it. An awesome read!”

READ ON!
