Product Description
Upscale interior designer Zoe Luce has found peace and contentment in Whispering Springs, Arizona. She has a thriving business, and she’s settling into newlywed life with private investigator Ethan Truax. The threat that brought Zoe and Ethan together is finally over, ancient history, or so Zoe believes. Very few people know of her uncanny ability to sense the dark secrets hidden within the walls of a house, and she wants to keep it that way, even from Ethan. But someone is stalking Zoe - someone who knows all about her, and who shadows her every move. Is it the same person who is threatening her closest friend, Arcadia Ames, the only other person in Whispering Springs who knows the truth about Zoe? Or are Zoe and Arcadia getting tangled in a web spun by someone more dangerous than they could ever have imagined?
As a private investigator, Ethan is paid to find the truth, yet he has secrets of his own that are better left buried. He can’t let the threats to Zoe go unchallenged, although he fears that the truth may be a bigger burden than their still-fragile relationship can handle. And Ethan isn’t alone with his fears: instead of setting her free, Zoe dreads that the truth will only imprison her once more within her darkest nightmares, this time with no escape in sight.

In this sequel to Light in Shadow, we find Zoe and Ethan trying to settle into married life, but the fear of the other leaving has both of them holding their feelings back. Zoe's fellow escapee from the psychiatric hospital Arcadia Ames is also feeling out of sorts. She has also assumed a new name trying to escape the husband trying to kill her, and she feels someone is watching her. Zoe is still hiding her psychic abilities from Ethan. Ethan is still trying to deal with the death of his brother. Everyone is ill at ease.
I didn't enjoy this book as much as the first one. I was hoping Ethan and Zoe would solidify their relationship, but they didn't. As long as Ethan doesn't believe Zoe is psychic, they can never be truly happy. I was hoping for some event or something to happen that would convince Ethan of her ability.

and a half stars for fun, a little suspense/mystery and light romance.

After "Light in Shadow" I had hoped this would have more mystery and substance and romance, but it was light on all three. If this is the first JAK book a reader has picked up, they will surely be disappointed. I picked this up used and cheap at a local bookstore so it was even less than a paperback. I enjoyed the humor and subplots and "sub" romances but felt too many storylines made for lack of the usual detail and suspense in other JAK books.
This is good for light summer reading and some fun. These characters, Zoe, Arcadia, Ethan, et al are better defined in the "prequel" and this time some of their motives seem strange. I did enjoy getting to know Singleton Cobb a bit better but other than his character the rest were shallow unless you had read the previous book. I'm not going to describe the plot as there are several but enjoy!

I had never heard of this author before and picked this book on cd up at the library. It moved at a snails pace, the book jacket made it sound like an inriuging mystery - but more time is spent on analyzing every last detail amongst the characters - finally when something does happen by the 8th cd - its anticlimactic. And althought he main character continually talks about being psychic - she never once has a premonition, other than feeling "spiderwebs" when she walks in a room. I couldn't wait for this book to end, and I will probably never pick up another book by this author, even though other reviewers say she writes good books. I kept wondering if it would be better, if someone who was not monotone was doing the reading on the cd. That didn't help matters.

Another enjoyable JAK novel. She knows how to interweave the scenes of everyday life, including some intriguing subplots. Keep writing and I'll keep reading. It may not be the most intellectual read, but it is definitely a fun time!
