Search - Second Sight (Arcane Society, Bk 1)

This book was a great deal of fun to read. Venetia is a professional photographer; Gabriel is a member of the Arcane Society. They both have psychic abilities, although they don't let each other know that until well into the book. The Society hires Venetia to photograph their artifacts, and she and Gabriel have a short-lived affair. Afterwards, she reads in the newspaper that he died, and she, thinking he is dead, takes his last name and pretends to be a widow for professional reasons. Then he shows up...

These are wonderful characters, vivid and well-drawn with a sense of humor. An excellent read!

First book I read by Amanda Quick, I'm adding her books to my favorite list. A refreshing combination of historial, romance and paranormal. Several times I found myself laughing.... Looking forward to reading more of Amanda Quick books...

Easily, one of my favorite books.

innteresting mix of mystery and mystical - set in Victorian times. At times it reads like a romance novel, at times it is more like a mystery, but it didn't distract too much. Nice period details.

I am pleasantly surprised with this book. I have never read Amanda Quick before and thought this may be another romance novel. A little mystery and a little paranormal. The story moves along at a very good clip. Characters are engaging. If it didn't say in the begining the time period I am not sure I would have figured it out. I will definately read another of her books.

Nice entertaining read!
