The Trickster

Title: The Trickster

Author: Kathleen Nance

Publisher: LoveSpell/2000

I've only read a few chapters of this book so for and it's basically well written but lacking in sparks or excitement. The heroine seems to be somewhat wimpy and the hero is something of a user. Of course, these were just my initial impressions.

I really like the concept of using Greek Mythology as a plotline but this story was hard for me to finish. This book just didn't have the spark or emotion that Ms. Nance's djinni books did. This is a start of a new series for her, I hope the following books show more her her original style.

Synopsis:

Long after she'd given up on his return, Matthew Mark Hennessy strolled back into Joy Taylors life, bolder than ever. But Joy was no longer the girl who had so easily trusted him with her heart. An aspiring chef, she had no intention of being distracted by the fireworks the magician sparked in her. But with a kiss silkier than her custard cream, he melted away her defenses. And she knew the master showman had performed the greatest trick of all: setting her heart afire.

Mark had traveled to Louisiana to uncover the truth, not to rekindle an old passion. But Joy set him sizzling. It was not her cooking that had him salivating, but the sway of her hips. And though magicians never divulge their secrets, Joy tempted him to confide his innermost desires. In a flash Mark realized their passion was no illusion, but the magic of true love.

VERY GOOD
