I really enjoyed the "Crystal Gardens" which was the first book in this series. It had a refreshingly interesting twist to the paranormal side of the story. In this tale, we have a lot of conversation, all on the same topic - hero "I don't have a paranormal talent and I don't believe in the paranormal - heroine "I have a genuine paranormal talent and so do you". Yawn. There were too many clues to the "surprise" twist at the end - I saw it coming a mile away. The problem here is I didn't really care about Joshua and Beatrice. At the end of the book, I know just a little about them. The hero and heroine just weren't fleshed out; I never got a 'feel' for either of them. They seemed to go from politeness with each other to love, and, frankly, I just didn't see it.
