Annalisse and Alec - a pair where sparks fly from the first moment, are embroiled in a theiller filled with guns and deceit. The story moved fast, part romance and part adventure, from trying to solve a murder - to finding Alec's kidnapped mother feared dead.

Annalisse was brought up by an aunt having lost both her parents at a young age. She is an antique jewellery appraiser who has lost a dear friend Sam in a most heinous crime. Sam had a bracelet that was lost and when Annalisse saw a necklace from the same collection with a gallery owner, she warns her of a curse attached to the piece and suggests, no begs, the lady to get rid of it. Generosa, the gallery owner, pays no heed and so starts an adventure which takes Annalisse and Alec, Generosa's son, to Turkey and Crete while looking for answers.

I enjoyed the initial part of the book which moved quickly and developed at a fantastic pace with a romance simmering in the background.

After about the second part of the story though, I found it a little difficult to follow. The action jumped between people and places too fast to keep track. I finished the book because I had to know what happened to the jewellery and the people involved.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Thank you to Booksirens who provided the book to me for free.
