Tara Walker dreams of more excitement than slinging plates of seafood for Cape Cod tourists, but as she learns when she is attacked and forced to fight for her life, fate sometimes has a funny way of giving you exactly what you wish for. Faced with strange new powers and embroiled in a murder investigation, Tara must now race to uncover the secrets of the ancient Fury that has woken inside of her â and of the evil that stalks her. As if Taraâs life hasnât gotten complicated enough, she is forced to ally herself with Jackson Byrne, witness to her assault and uncle to a pint-sized oracle whose fate is intertwined with hers. Skeptical, stubborn, and oh-so-sexy, Jackson wrestles with demons of his own. He is determined to ignore the attraction rising between them even faster than the body count, but like it or not, he and Tara need each other if they are to unravel the mysteries that surround them.
Review :
âThere are more things in heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.â
I donât know how I stumbled across Furyâs Kiss but I am really ecstatic that I did.
4.5 Kick Ass Heroine Stars.
This is the debut novel by Ms. White and it has everything that it should have. Humour, suspense, love, a grouchy Hero and a strong headed heroine.
The secondary characters only added to the story and the detail that was created. I actually read this book in one sitting and informed my hubby to leave me alone. Bless him, he is very patient when it comes to my reading addiction.
Jackson Bryne is a broody, gorgeous man with some demons. Who doesnât believe in supernatural, really it had it coming. He is judgmental but the situations that Tara puts herself in, he in the end does save the day.
He tries to deny the chemistry between them but they fail.
Tara Walker is a waitress but one day she would like to fulfil her dream of opening up a restaurant. After a date gone horrible bad and meeting the guy of her dreams that ignores her.
Youâd think her day couldnât get any worse, right? Wrong. She fights for her life and does the unthinkable.
She gains powers and ally she never thought could happen. Due to some witnesses things get complicated. Tara is a strong heroine and takes everything in stride. Iâd killed a man and cursed another, been beaten up and shot at, and been mistaken for a prostitute in the past twenty-four hours.
With the help of her awesome friends Rachel and Alex they get to the bottom of it. But evil is still hot on their heels. So with finding out that Tara is a Fury, there also being the New England Serial Killer in the area.
The crazy neighbour Mrs. Hadley who is an absolute riot. Ruby the mini oracle who needs saving along with her mother Nora. Being on the run from the FBI and fighting pure evil what more could you want to stop leading a boring life.
What I liked is that the story is original and it isnât based on the point of view from the Greek God and their Posse but that the Furies get to shine, avenge and kick some serious butt. The world building, there was never a dull moment when it came to this book.
That there was a balance between Tara coming to terms with Alecto the fury in her and herself without giving up her identity. Alecto really wants her sisters though Tisphone and Megaera and guess who they are. Yep, Alex and Rachel. Alex is up next and I canât wait.
I do have two questions though, is Tara now immortal? If yes what about Jackson?
