Description:
Katherine Bonner with the golden eyes and a golden, enchanted life is well on her way to becoming a horse whisperer. Tall, athletic, she loves to ride, and she can usually exact good behavior from most wild steed, except from Pierce who bucks her at every crack of the whip.
Pierce is top honcho in charge of the fifteen hundred acre ranch, Bonner-Willow. Although he owns a Master’s in business administration, he loves to be around horses. He considers himself more of a cowboy than a CEO.
When Kat becomes the bearer of unexpected news about her past from ex-convict, ex-lawyer Victor Horn, she wonders how she will ever find her roots and manage to put the pieces of her life back together again. She turns to Pierce, the dark hair and blue eyed hunk whom Kat believes, thinks he is God's gift to women.
Pierce reluctantly agrees to help, partly for reasons of his own. He worries about his lawyerly father being involved with Victor's murder. As Pierce and Kat travel to Chicago together, they walk right into a criminal investigation headed by two bumbling detectives. Kat makes a date with a potential serial killer, and Pierce, whose affection for Kat is slowly changing to one of deeper commitment, worries about her safety. Meanwhile, Kat bumps into a doppelganger she believes is stalking her, only to discover that no one else ever sees her.
Mirror Deep uncovers many twists and turns designed to keep the reader guessing until the end. Through all the action, Pierce remains by Kat's side. Will he be able to hide from Kat his mounting desire? Will Kat find who this look alike is and why she is trying to warn her? Does Kat follow a stranger to Paris, France simply to put miles between her and Pierce or to avoid the threat of a potential killer?

My review:
This one has it all! Mystery, suspense, intrigue, romance, and even a little supernatural thrown in. It took me a bit to get into the groove of the story but once I did I was definitely hooked and wanted to find out more. Parts of it got a bit confusing but overall it was a great story.
I really liked the characters. Kat is a strong willed female, who's very sassy. Pierce whose her second cousin is a total ladies man and loves to mess with Kat and get her riled. I was bothered at first when it was first implied that Pierce was in love with Kat because it was still a little gross to me the second cousin thing. But it really all works out in the end. There's definitely a lot more to the story and their banter definitely worked. So I got over my initial fears and just went with the story.
I'd definitely recommend for those who love a good mystery. There's no sex so in it and it isn't overtly dark, so it's definitely enjoyable for those who like a good mystery without it being to sinister.
3.5/5*

ReplyDeleteIt works out ok. Trust me I was a little grossed by the idea but it really is ok. LOL I was really tired and rushing to finish the book in time to post my review and I didn't want to spoil anything. If you want to know I can tell you. It doesn't really spoil the book all that much.
DeleteI'm glad you enjoyed it! Is a bit lighter on stuff and not quite so dark, but yet is still suspenseful. Thanks for hosting a tour stop!
ReplyDeleteI'm used to reading some of the darker mysteries so it was a nice change of pace. Miki my friend doesn't really like the darker ones is why I added that bit. :) I'm glad I could help.
DeleteGreat review and post. I really enjoyed the book. It kept me guessing about what would happen next. I'm eager to read more from the author.
