false http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255688600m/6089684.jpg 689486 13 The <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author of <i>White Lies</i> presents her newest Arcane Society novel. <br/><br/> With more than 25 million books sold, Jayne Ann Krentz "excels at crafting superior, sexy romantic suspense" (<i>Booklist</i>), and with her Arcane Society novels-written under both the Krentz and Amanda Quick names-she has thrilled readers with paranormal plots and passionate love stories. In her latest novel, a member of the Society must recruit a reluctant woman to use her psychic gift against a powerful enemy. <br/><br/> When Raine Tallentyre made the mistake of revealing her paranormal abilities, her most recent romantic relationship came to a hasty end. Her Aunt Vella, a gifted but troubled soul, had told her years ago to keep her talents a secret. And now that poor Aunt Vella-her last blood relative-has died, Raine has resigned herself to a lonely life. <br/><br/> But when she journeys to Shelbyville, Washington, to clear out Aunt Vella's house, Raine's highly developed sensitivity leads her to a horrifying discovery: a young woman bound and terrified in a basement storage locker. The victim has survived, but the culprit is still on the loose. Without warning, a new man enters Raine's life-investigator Zack Jones. Surprisingly, Zack isn't repelled by her powers: in fact, he has them himself. While Raine hears voices, Zack sees visions and within hours of their meeting, Raine experiences an intense, thrilling intimacy-mental, emotional, and physical-she never dared to expect. <br/><br/> There's one complication, however: Zack Jones is working for the Arcane Society. This secret organization, dedicated to the study of paranormal phenomena, shattered Raine's family with an act of betrayal long ago, and she's not about to trust them now. But as a killer makes her his target, and a cabal of psychic criminals known as Nightshade operates in the shadows surrounding them, Raine and Zack must rely not only on their powerful abilities but on each other . . . <br/><br/> From the author who also hits bestseller lists under the names Jayne Castle and Amanda Quick, this is a delightful new caper filled with suspense and wit-and the steamy Victorian passion her devoted readers love. 2835954 2007 Sizzle and Burn (Arcane Society, # 3) total:672|5:151|4:256|3:220|2:37|1:8| 672 2521 904 102 5 2 false false Wed Feb 06 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Wed Feb 06 13:40:23 -0800 2008 Sun Jan 11 20:03:31 -0800 2009 ...more...]]> 5 1 false false Mon Apr 20 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jan 14 08:48:21 -0800 2009 Mon Apr 20 21:47:32 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Feb 16 11:40:51 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 16 11:47:13 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Feb 07 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 06 20:16:09 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 07 16:47:44 -0800 2009 1 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Apr 16 14:26:12 -0700 2009 Tue Feb 24 15:26:08 -0800 2009 Thu Apr 16 14:26:12 -0700 2009 1

Raine Tallentyre is clairaudient, but being called "creepy" by someone she thought of as a good friend was hard to swallow. Aunt Vella always told her to keep her talent secret.

I like that she's taking her characters in a more subtle direction these days.

There are some points in the book where she's a little over the top, but overall, I really enjoyed this one.

Paranormal touch and vision. Enhancement drugs which hook and then kill. A history with two families which came together in the story.
