Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In "Forever, Deveraux began the story of Darci Monroe, the extraordinary woman with psychic abilities. Her special talents led her into the arms of millionaire beau Adam Montgomery. In "Forever and Always, Adam disappears in his private jet, forcing Darci to raise her two small daughters alone, while also helping a famous Hollywood actor find his missing son. Now, this superb storyteller mixes the flavor of a classic fairy tale with a very modern heroine as Darci uses her paranormal powers to secure endless love amidst shadowy secrets. When the father of an incorrigible FBI agent is kidnapped, Darci is summoned to assist with the investigation. During the search, Darci is taken back in time to 1843 and is stripped of her psychic powers. Now Darci must adapt to being "normal" and somehow find a way back home!

Review:

"More like a video game without rules than a romance, Deveraux's follow-up to her previous paranormal romance, Forever and Always,is a madcap and often nonsensical romp through time and space. Jack Hallbrooke, a perpetually enraged undercover FBI officer, is none too happy to rescue his kidnapped philanthropist father, who has treated Jack terribly. The quest infuriates him all the more when he learns he must work with Darci Montgomery, an all-powerful psychic who was dubbed the 'Hillbilly Honey' after she married rich and supposedly killed her husband. Those who've read this novel's two predecessors will know Darci did no such thing and, in fact, has been on a long quest to find her handsome husband since he disappeared on a philanthropic mission. Newcomers, though, will be mystified by the goings-on in this book, especially when Jack and Darci start using magical objects that bring them into contact with spirits and even transport them back to the Victorian era. Sparse character development and a haphazard plot make for a jolting read, and the absurd conclusion, in which Darci realizes she has an impressive power that allows her to manufacture a happy ending for herself, is pat but somehow appropriate for this off-kilter adventure." Publishers Weekly (Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information, Inc.)

Synopsis:

The "New York Times" bestselling author concludes her Forever series. When Darci Monroe is enlisted by the FBI to help locate the missing father of undercover agent Jack Rose, she doesn't realize that her attraction to Jack will lead her into an era long past.

Synopsis:

Darci has never given up searching for her kidnapped husband, Adam Montgomery. But her quest has taken her deeper into the world of psychic phenomena than she ever dreamed — or dared to go. When the FBI enlists her help in locating the missing father of undercover agent Jack Rose, Darci signs on for the covert operation, not knowing that her attraction to handsome, sexy Jack is about to lead her into deadly territory — and into an era long past. For Jack has a protector, a mysterious nineteenth-century lady who pulls them into a time and place where Darci is stripped of her abilities. Can she find the key that links to the modern-day crimes she's set out to solve? And will a showdown with a wicked force from the past hold her hostage...for all eternity?

This book was awesome...I just wish it had lasted longer. Of course, I always (no pun...well, ok, maybe a little pun meant) feel that way when reading Jude Deveraux novels. Hopefully, there will be more to the Darci/Adam story in the near future. I have every one of Jude's books and I love them all. I can't wait for more.
