Crystal Gardens by Amanda Quick has finally reached the top of my review stack. I was extremely eager to read this one. I asked for it at LibraryThing and from Amazon Vine and was lucky enough to get a copy from both places. I love Amanda Quick stories. The combination of historical romance and paranormal romance along with quirky heroes and heroines really does it for me. This story is the first in the Ladies of Lantern Street series and will be published on April 24.
Jayne Ann Krentz is one of my favorite authors whether she is writing as herself, Amanda Quick, or Jayne Castle.

The muffled thud of the shattered lock echoed like a thunderclap in the deep silence that drenched the cottage.Talk about a spine-chilling way to be awakened in the night! I like the immediate sense of danger that this first sentence brings. Who is breaking in and why?
Friday 56:
"That is all there is to do here in Little Dixby? See a few ruins, have tea and a few tasteless sandwiches and stop in a bookshop?"
