And as if that weren't bad enough to make the book worthy of being sat on by an elephant, the plot is jumbled and convoluted, with several extremely flimsey mysteries that hold water like a whiffle ball and quickly disolve into thin air. Where exactly was this money supposed to have come from? And at this point, does ANYONE really care, since the money thing has been dropped, too. The only good thing about the book was Tess's past life regression to an Anasazi cliff dweller, but that also disappeared about half-way through, leaving the reader with out a single excuse for having wasted about three hours of my valuable time.

Tess O'Mara is on a working cruise when a stranger makes a prediction about her, which puts an unattached Tess in hopes of her future and the chance at a life long love. With the cruise and New Years day behind her, Tess finds her promised bonus is a little more. Did I say little? It's a lot more than she expected. Once she starts spending, her worried brother, who thinks it's something more, steps in and sends her to a friend for safe keeping.

Sheriff McCall sounds like every woman's dream, but the dreams, or visions, Tess has are very unusual and mysterious... possibly dangerous. I enjoyed Ms. Skye's creation of Almost, Arizona and the characters that reside there. It gave the story an inviting, comfortable feel. This one is definitely a good read.
