Family secrets

ENCHANTED HEART is the third book in a series about the feuding Heart family, once the owners of a chain of department stores, Heart Federated. Because of a much maligned buyout, orchestrated by family shareholders they are a family linked by bloodline only. This story centers on the controversial bad boy, Lance Heart Smith, and also reacquaints readers with family members from previous books. Lance is not a direct heir to the Heart's fortune, but the provisions in the will were more than sufficient to support his flamboyant lifestyle. He is a playboy who loves fast cars, fast women and short commitments; Lance is a study in complicated relationships. The heroine of the story, Viveiene La Fontaine, is a seductress in her own right, but for the moment she has no time for relationships. Her focus is on expanding her lingerie boutique, 'Guilty Pleasures', and supporting her twin sister. Additionally, there is a secret hovering over the two sisters, which makes intimacy on a permanent basis almost impossible for either of them. Viv and Lance meet at their college reunion in Boston and Lance is amazed that they attended the same university but had never met. He is equally surprised to learn they reside only a few miles apart in Hampton Roads, Virginia. Under the guise of investing in her boutique, Lance arranges a meeting. Even though they have their own agendas, both are surprised by the dynamics of their meeting. As they float in and out of each other's space, the connection between them intensifies. Will the family secrets from their respective pasts bring unwanted attention and destroy the connection that is brewing? As the key characters align their lives, Felicia Mason skillfully injects her secondary characters to enhance this story. There are also secondary stories at play here, but they all flow into one melting pot and come to a simmering and surprising crescendo. This is a wonderful closure to the tumultuous dynasty of the Heart family. Reviewed by aNN of The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers

Enchanted Heart

Enchanted Heart was my first read by Felicia Mason. This romance novel was a little different than my regular romance reads. Unlike other fictitious romance novels, this one was parallel to true life. Her characters were well developed. The multi-storylined novel had me confused at first. Once I understood, the story flowed. If you are looking for a great read, you will not be disappointed.
