Swans Book Review

I'm not sure if this book ended fairly or if the author cheated.  I feel cheated somehow but I can't place my finger on why I feel this way. Let me explain. Jenny Carpenter has decided to take charge of her life, which includes her quitting her job as a teacher in her small hometown of Last Chance ( Yes, that is the real name of the town ) and pursuing her dream of opening a Bed and Breakfast of her own. It has nothing to do with her giving up being married with kids and to embrace her spinster hood, it's just that she found that it was time to follow her dreams. Trouble comes when the former owner of the hunted house Jenny bought shows up on a dark and stormy night ( I'm not kidding ) demanding that she sell him back his house.  Not comprehending why someone would see her a house and then want to buy it back at a ridiculous prize, Jenny told him that she's not selling, slammed the door in his face and thought that was the end of it.

Some years back I saw this in a store and was immediately interested in the the the of the story, when I read the description on the back I was hooked, and thus my first taste of Karen Hawkins was born. Fiona MacLean, wanting to stop her hotheaded brothers rom doing something foolish (like most brothers do) decided to sacrifice herself in order to end the feud between her family and the Kincaid's; and the only way that she thought of to stop the feud is to marry. Unfortunately, the groom did not come willingly, he was picked up after he fell from his horse and knocked unconscious.  He was woken up in a church where he was married in a drunken stupor.

What are you suppose to do when someone is trying to kill you over your ceramic bowl.  Do you give it over without any complaints or do you hide it and let thousands of people be murdered. Well Summer Hawthorne chose to hide the urn, not knowing the ramifications of her actions, which has her placed in numerous dangerous situations. Where she is rescued time and time again from an unlikely candidate Takasji O'Brien. Takasji "Taka" O'Brien was sent on an assignment to retrieve the Hayashi Urn and to get rid of any liability, and that included Summer, but for some reason he finds himself unable to do so. Now it is up to this unlikely "couple" to keep the urn out of the evil clutches ( delusional cult ) of those who are set out to "cleanse the world". This book is not really what I usually read but I ran out of the type of books I read at the Library and I'm glad I picked up this book.   Ice Blue had loss, betrayal, murder and buddi...
