Dream Eyes

Series note: This book is set in the same world as the Arcane Society. While there are some references to Jones & Jones from that series, these are merely Easter Eggs for fans and are unrelated to the specific plot.

Jayne Ann Krentz is a talented and entertaining writer, but this is not one of her better books. To begin with, the romance is bland and boring. Judson and Gwen go from being acquaintances to partners to lovers in the blink of an eye. Depsite their attraction, there is actually very little sizzle, and their interactions and emotions are told rather than shown.

The suspense plot lacks cohesiveness and development. The narrative is a mish-mash of unrelated scenes, and the clues to the mystery are few and far between. Moreover, the eventual explanation doesn't make much sense.

This book brings the Dark Legacy series to a close, which is unfortunate as there are interesting details concerning the feud between the Coppersmiths and the Barrets, and it would have been good to get a final installment possibly revolving around a romance between Emma Coppersmith and Gideon Barrett. Alas... ( )

Pretty OK book. The same script as most of the other Krentz books but this one seemed a little better. I liked the heroine and the hero. As always, the motives of the villains are explained at the end of the book before they are caught or killed. This latter characteristic Krentz's romantic suspense novels is somewhat annoying and probably makes me wondering why some editor doesn't talk to her about this. ( )

this goes in and out of the Arcana series only it isn't as good or as strongly put together. the characters are traditional Krentz, with twisting plot line. yet there was something that wasn't quite there for me with this one. ( )

Gwen Frazier, Psychic counselor that fixes dreams is involved with several murders. Judson Coppersmith is a psychic investigator. ( )

This book was a great read. Following her books thru all her pseudonyms is tricky but well worth the effort.
