Dr. Libby Drake is sensible and practical. To her more adventurous sisters, she's always been the "good girl". Certainly not the kind to attract the attention of a genius like Ty Derrick -- until a tragic accident leaves the handsome biochemist at her mercy.
Acting on her uncanny ability to heal, she stirs in the reawakened Ty his own long-suppressed desires for the woman who saved his life. But he's not the only man with designs on Libby Drake. Her miraculous and selfless power has also captured the attention of a dangerously influential admirer. He's pursuing the elementally gifted beauty for his own wicked purpose. And he's willing to go to deadly lengths to make it happen.

I really enjoy this series. It's representation of sisters and their family caring is a joy. Their various paranormal skills make the stories especially interesting and satisfying.

Libby Drake is the fourth of the seven sisters with magic. She is the Doctor, the good girl, the one who never gets in trouble. She has a gift for healing, using her abilities in context with her profession. Libby feels like the overlooked one in the Drake family, she feels she is destined to be an old maid, because she has never felt the pull of passion or the heat of chemistry.
Tyson Derrick is a genius, he and Libby attended college together. She has great respect for his brillance, but not for his social skills. Tyson is a loner, except for his cousin Sam. His interests lie in research but occasionally he needs to fill the emptiness inside, so he skydives, mountain climbs, or works with the Rescue Team his cousin is on. Only a rush of adrenaline seems to make him feel alive.
Until the day his safety rope snaps and he falls 30 feet onto the rocks below him. He is rushed to the hospital and declared in a vegative state. When Libby sees him she is forced by her gift to save his life, even at the risk of hers and her sisters. As Libby collapses he awakens to stare into her eyes and find there is something else that can make him feel alive. That can fill his empty heart. Suddenly he finds his mind filled with everything about Libby. He doesn't believe Libby can heal and considers her sisters con artists who have fooled a whole community. But he is determined to make her his.
There is a beauty and soothing quality in her face and Ty needs to have that in his life, Libby finds she is not without feelings of her own. As they try to learn about each other they are faced with several attempts on their lives. But are they against Libby or Ty. Each is determined to protect the other and the rest of the sisters are going to try to protect both.

Great story. I actually think this series is better than her vampire series. About the sister "Libby" the healer.

This is the third in the Drake Sisters series by Feehan. It's a fun, sexy, suspenseful read.

A little slow at first, but definitely a surprise ending. I couldn't put it down once I got past the first half.

Never knew a brainiac could be so sexy. Course this braniac is a muscular action junky and he meets his match in the healing touch of powerful and compassionate Libby Drake. I love the way these magical sisters stick together, their men don't stand a chance! Filled with intrigue from the first chapter, I didnt know who done it till the very end. Couldn't put it down!

I got hooked on Christine Feehan through her vampire series. A friend lent me a book, and I was hooked completely. I love the 3 series she writes, and as soon as a new book is out, I read it, my friend reads it, then another friend reads it, then I set it up for someone else to enjoy. EXCELLENT stories.

confusing. the details does not add up.

This book is great because it has more than the typical "perfect" characters you see in other romance novels. They have different aspects to their personalities that make them seem more like real people. Libby is the most responsible and compassionate of the Drake sisters, but she's also insecure and is hurt by what others think of her, like Ty's cousin. Ty is such an average male, one minute you want to smack him for being insensitive and the next minute you want to kiss him for surprising you and being such a sweetheart. I would highly recommend!
