Casse Narome has written a quick paced woman’s story about discovery. Mayne, the heroine is a troubled and broken woman just trying to survive from day to day. She has lost too many loved ones and close friends and thinks she is the cause. That is until death materialized from the shadows in the form of a deeply sexy man and introduced himself as Eric. From then on Mayne is in constant conflict with her attraction to Eric and her fear of cheating on her dead fiancé. Ultimately Mayne finds her way and even makes things better for her type who are caught in the war between Heaven and sheol. Oh yes she does find love with Eric as well.First, I must state I’m not a fan of first person stories, just too much inner thoughts and this book has a bunch in detail. Mayne is constantly swinging from being sure of herself to doubting everything. Some may like to read this type of book but I’m not a fan. There are also certain parts that are, in my opinion, really farfetched fantasy. You have to really suspend belief and go with the writer. However, because this story was so well written, with some great images portrayed, that I could overlook my personal preferences against 1st person.The passages of dialogue really flowed by and the secondary characters each had their own voice and part to add to Mayne’s journey. This certainly overcame the problems I had with this book to give it four stars. I often mention that a book should be given to the significant male in your life to read, but in this case keep this book to yourself. Think of it like a box of chocolates that you hoard for yourself. :-)
