For me, this was somewhat of a mind bender compared to Elle. Where Elle was more about the relationship between Simon and her and that this entailed, Golden had a few different elements that the author brought along for the ride. Aurelle comes from a long line of people that believe in spirits and where particular "gifts" are passed down from generation to generation. Though her mother did not believe, her father did but chose to neglect those beliefs to make his wife happy. But after getting sick and asking for his father's help too late, Aurelle's father decided to keep in touch with his family so that his daughters could learn about their history and develop their own particular gifts. Aurelle's gift allows her to see spirits and sometimes even control what someone might or might not do. It is this gift and such a powerful family history that allows her to meet the One for her, Gordon (who just happens to be Simon's cousin). Not only is she Kia's teacher but there's also a very interesting job that she has that ends up peaking Gordon's interest in her even more. Golden is definitely a story worth reading, and some very hot scenes too! Of course the author couldn't let us down in that aspect. I love how each book has a different story line altogether but the characters will pop in from time to time to make an appearance.
