Silka Fontein was a typical rich little girl until
she disappeared 15 years ago, right after her high school graduation after
party. What happened to her? No one knows where she went to or why she had left
so suddenly. Now, after all these years she returns home, different and
completely changed, with secrets so deadly that everyone’s lives are in danger!
She reunites with Taber Blake, her childhood friend who turned into the quintessential playboy. As they fight their unexpected attraction
for one another, a series of action packed events have them fighting for their
lives. It is then that Taber’s own lethal secrets are exposed in the
process. Will their attraction be enough to survive the truth?
Ash was born on Christmas Day
1974. So started a life of "Merry Christmas...And oh! Happy Birthday
too." Before you say, "Aw Shame" and break out the tissues,
please know that Ash is a Christmas Diva! There are always two presents ...or
else!
Reading and writing was a big part of Ash's life growing up. Being a typical
rebel, rather than joining the cut-throat corporate world after graduating, Ash
became a vegetarian hippie instead and went into the gardening/ nursery
business. The irony of a vegetarian "plant lover" is still lost this
award winning Horticulturist to this day.
Ash traded comfortable hemp attire for corporate cotton later on and became the
Purchasing Manager for McDonald's Asia, Pacific, Middle East and Africa region.
These days neither the high flying corporate Exec or the vegetarian hippie
exist, but rather the family orientated book lover with not so much spare time
to read anymore.

The eternal rebel loves to connect with fans (or "Stoneys!" as they
are lovingly referred to). So, go on and stalk away, you rebel you!
I was asked to read this book for an
honest review.
I must admit that Ash Stone is a new
author to me and this is the first book I have read by this author.
I was not sure what to expect but was
pleasantly surprised by how good this books was.
There are two main characters Silva and
Tabor lost touch for 15 years and then again found each. In the finding of each other, they take you
on an amazing rollercoaster of emotions.
You will be kept gripped to your seat while reading all the twists and
turns in this book, you will gasp and say OMG a lot but it will be so worth it.
This book is action packed and yes it
is a thriller just so you are aware. I
knew when I read the synopsis that this would be a book I could enjoy and I was
not wrong.
I found I was lulled into a false sense
of security, thinking at the beginning that this would be a great romantic sexy
novel but I was so wrong, there is so much more to read here. Yes there is a romance, well erotic moment
but I felt they did not over play the content of this story.
The great thing here is that Ash Stone
has brought out two versions, an Adult Version and a PG Version. Even in the PG version you get a sense of the
connection between these two characters.
All in all this is full of drama,
action and suspense. The good thing I
felt though was that the love story was real and that made the difference to
some of the books out there that I have read.
Ash Stone has a great book here on her
hands and for a new author to write something as good as this, I feel that we
will hear more from Ash Stone.
I would recommend this book to you all.
5 Stars
