Rate this book
Freshly released from a bad marriage, Liz takes off on a self-discovery trip through the States. After finding the picturesque town of Hidden Creek, she sees something strange, leaving her reeling and pretty sure someone or something is out to get her.

Joe hated being stuck in his hometown of Hidden Creek. Hell, he'd tried to leave more times than he could count, but each time, he got pulled back somehow. He was sure he was destined to die in this hellhole, but when a pretty blonde runs into the store begging for help, he might have finally found a reason to stay.

A steamy paranormal romance that will have you turning pages quickly and losing track of time in the blink of an eye. This is the 4th book in the series and I highly recommend starting with the first book as it will enhance your reading pleasure and your understanding of events that have led up to this book. You will love reading about Liz and Joe, but be prepared to have your blood pressure steaming up as it is a climatic experience in more than just the plot! This series if full of interesting and intriguing characters and this book is no exception! I can't wait to read more from this author very soon!

Good book.
You got the impression that Joe wasn’t a nice guy in the other books BUT it turns out that Joe is a sweetheart, I really liked him.
It was nice catching up with the other 3 couples and Joe and Liz makes a good addition to their group.

Entanglement!!!

Liz was so happy when her marriage ended, she no longer had to stay in California where all the hurt and betrayal were. She decided to rediscover herself so she took off on a trip, she headed up in Hidden Creek. One night she saw something in the woods that scared her and she had a feeling that there was a supernatural entity following her.



Joe Reed, owner of Hidden Creek Wine and Liquor store, he hated the fact that he couldn't leave his hometown. Every time he tried, he found himself being pulled back magically to Hidden Creek. As a youngster, he was mean to many people especially Xtina, he wanted to apologize for all the wrong he's done to her. But some people still saw him as the cruel boy he was in the past and not the man he was today.

At nights he was plagued by the same dreams for months, those dreams seemed so real. In the dreams he was drawn to someone who needed his help, he wrote down all his dreams in a journal. He was so sure that he would die alone in his town. Well all that changed when a beautiful, petite blond beauty ran into his shop asking for help.

Liz told Joe all about the scary encounter she had in the woods and he believed her. He wanted to get at the bottom of the mystery that seemed to be connected to his dreams. As they worked to uncover what really happened to her and why, they grew closer than either one of them expected.

One day Xtina and Micheal came into Joe's store and immediately Xtina knew that Liz was the woman she'd dreamt about. Most importantly they realized that there was still a big bad out there that they all needed to take care of. Including Joe & Liz.

It was a treat to catch up with Xtina/Michael ( THE AWAKENING ), Bre/Ethan ( THE BECKONING ) and Jess/Jacob ( THE ASCENSION ). The way they all got stronger was a delight to see, Joe was no longer on the outside looking in. He got his HEA and Liz found where she belonged.

THE PRESENCE is the fourth book in Jill Sanders' ENTANGLED series. It was fascinating, fast-paced and intriguing...An astonishing job by Jill Sanders. I recommend you guys grab a copy and enjoy the ride. Two thumbs up!

Liz has had a rough couple of years, after her divorce she decided that some soul searching was needed, and took off on her own travelling, to find herself. She has been on the road about 6 months when she ends up in the campsite just outside of Hidden Creek. Its here when she is freaked out by something in the woods and runs into Joe's shop frightened, being chased by someone or something.

Joe is immediately taken by the beautiful woman who runs into his store and offers to help her. She is so frightened that she can't speak, but she knows she doesn't want to try and explain the strange experience to the police, so Joe takes her to his parents house for them to look after Liz and make her feel safe again. Unfortunately the experience has changed her whole outlook on life for now.

Another paranormal experience is about to hit Hidden Creek - is Liz part of the problem or the solution?

What a great addition to the series. We still have all the previous characters and some new.

Joe has known that something hasn't been quite right with him for some time and now he finally learns a bit more about himself and his "power". He also learns more about his friends and becomes a part of their group rather than the outsider. Liz is new to everything magical and mythical and new to Hidden Creek. The group grows in strength as they all learns more about themselves and who they are along with the strengths of the abilities. A twist and turn along results in an interesting story that will keep you turning page after page.

I am so glad there is another book to this series. Liz is trying to find herself after betrayal and a bad marriage. She ends up in a small town in Georgia running from some kind of monster. She runs right into Joe's business. Liz is happy to have a safe place. But how long will it remain safe? Whatever is after her, will not go away easily. Is she safe anywhere? As she and Joe try to figure out what is going on, six other friends come to help. Will they be able to save the world again?

Wow! This is the first book of the series for me and I now need to go back and read the others. I was fascinated as I turned pages seeing where things were going to go. Its definitely paranormal with it having Greek gods, mists turning into shapes and Liz finding out she is an Oracle. The romance between her and Joe develops nice and the group of friends sticking together make it a page Turner.

Book 4 in the Entangled Series. This book starts where book 3 ends. It is Joe and Liz's story. Liz is on a walkabout to find herself and winds up in Hidden Creek. The couples from the other books are all here to help as Joe and Liz discover their unique abilities.
