Wow! From the characters to the setting to the surprise twist, this book had me hooked from the first page.Tess is a fantastic main character. Despite the bizarre situation she finds herself in, she does her best to meet it with grace and humor. That is, when she’s not being stubborn as a mule. I loved this strong, independent heroine. And the leading man – oh my! He’s about as swoon-worthy as they come. But, like Tess, he’s not without his faults, adding dimension to his character. And that’s not all; the supporting characters are as well-rounded and believable as the main characters.I absolutely adored the setting of Trusca. The author created a fascinating, believable alternate world that draws you in and makes you want to learn all there is to know. The bits of Truscan language thrown in were just enough to give the world even greater depth without breaking the flow of the story.As for the surprise twist… well, I don’t want to give any spoilers. Let’s just say it really did take me by surprise, something that doesn’t often happen.Having devoured Vanished in record time, I’m anxious to check out more from this talented author.
