A compelling read - great suspense

Catherine Winslow has been plagued by vivid dreams throughout her life--dreams of the glamorous heiress, Nicki, a fantasy which helped Catherine cope with the tyrannical aunt who raised her.Catherine is finally able to leave the Charleston mansion which has become like a prison to her when her career as a romance novelist takes off. She soon becomes romantically involved with a local politician but breaks off their relationship just before their wedding. It isn't long afterwards that disturbing dreams of Nicki surface again.Although at first somewhat confusing, the readers soon becomes wrapped up in Nicki's life as well as Catherine's as Nicki is stalked by a serial killer.This is romantic suspense at its very best, a compelling pageturner, especially enjoyed by this reviewer who read it in on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, as part of the book is set on the Big Island. Full of long-dormant secrets, gripping suspense, and tender romance--who could ask for anything more?

Terrific story--and author

This is a very interesting story, with a most unique twist. I wasn't sure if I was going to like it at first, but was soon caught up. Marcia Martin is a terrific author. I hope that the older titles are reprinted--now you have to search used bookstores. They are excellent! I hope there are new titles to come!
