review 1: Psychic Sam Chase is afraid of her gifts and does whatever she can to keep them a secret. When she is abducted from Iraq by unknown persons and forced onto an aircraft going God knows where, her life immediately changes...dramatically. Her gifts are out in the open now and she is forced to work for a covert team of female psychics to solve a bizarre grave robbery that has political implications. The only good thing is she's working with Lance "Bear" Rutledge, a forensic investigator who really floats her boat. The sparks between these two are great and the fireworks really fly.I didn't like the high-handedness of the American government in forcibly bringing these women into the Sisterhood. It's one thing to drag a women out of prison with a better offer but to grab a ... moresecret agent for the American government and force her into the Sisterhood, that is just un-American - covert ops or not. It just left a bad taste in my mouth and what a bitch that Ms. Z character is. All in all a decent start to the series, being that 4 women were abducted into this Sisterhood, I expect three more books in the series. Since the mystery was solved in this one, there will be recurring characters not a continuing investigation so they outta be interesting. review 2: I found this book to be different than most "romance" books. Of course there was the sexual attraction of two characters who just were not meant to be. It wouldn't be romance without that. This book is different in that it is a mystery wrapped up in paranormal (think voodoo, psychics, zombies). Four women are forced by the government to work together to solve paranormal crimes. The main character is can sense things and hears voice that tells her when she is in danger, one is a voodoo priestess, one talks to animals and finds missing things and the other one is a witch. They are forced to work with an agent from the DOD to solve who or what has been digging up graves in Arlington Cemetery.The banter between characters was engaging and learning how each "gift" worked made the story interesting. The most annoying feature was the slight suggestions of each character's past and why they were forced to join. Overall, an enjoyable and quick read. less
