Publisher Description
The New York Times bestselling of Eternity brings her signature “enchanting and exquisite” (BookPage) prose to the second in the Forever Trilogy following Darci Monroe as she must solve a devastating mystery that hits close to home.
When her beloved husband vanishes after a strange accident, grief-stricken Darci Monroe is left to raise their young daughter alone. But she can’t help but suspect that the reports of his death are untrue.
When the FBI enlists her intuitive talents to solve a heinous crime, she agrees—if they help to uncover the truth about her husband. It may be a tougher deal than Darci imagined: she must go head-to-head with a criminal whose mind power matches hers at every turn. And she must discover if those in the highest circles of authority have her best interests at heart—or if someone intends to sever the everlasting bond she shares with her one true love.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The bliss that Darci Montgomery found by the end of Deveraux's last paranormal mystery-cum-romance, Forever, didn't last long, as this lackluster follow-up finds the pint-sized psychic alone once again, searching for her abducted husband. When primetime TV hunk Linc Abrams seeks her assistance in finding a son he fathered via sperm bank, Darci agrees, sensing that the investigation will bring her closer to her husband. As they aimlessly search for answers at a creepy Alabama "spa," they rub shoulders with ghosts, uncover secrets about Linc's lineage and cross paths with a blind seer. Darci's psychic insights make it easy for the author to skimp on character development. When she meets Linc, for example, we're told that "he'd missed out on some love in his life" but that he's generally a "good guy." The plot is also lacking in development. Overall, the book feels more like a sketch than a fully fleshed-out story. Despite its open-ended denouement (which includes an obvious setup for book three), readers may think twice before picking up Darci's next adventure.
