Do you like to tell the world just exactly what you thought of the last book you read? Was it so bad that you wanted to just throw it out the window and run screaming a warning to all other book lovers? Was this book the best you ever read and you just have to tell someone or you would burst?

Evie’s widowed father calls to say he’s got cancer that’s at a stage too advanced for him to try getting treated, so she heads back home to stay with him until the end. She’d never been allowed in the basement of his house that used to belong to her grandparents, and discovers a family legacy to guard a storeroom full of magical items from myth and legend.
Sinon/Alex had been with Odysseus and was instrumental in getting the Trojan Horse accepted inside the walls of Troy. He’s captured by Apollo, made a slave and cursed to never die. He approaches hoping the storeroom has something in there that can kill him and teams up with Evie in an attempt to prevent Discord’s Apple from being obtained by Hera, knowing worldwide chaos would soon follow.
Luckily I have never read a Sydney Sheldon book so I have nothing to compare it to. Especially since there is another writer taking over at this time. My review won’t be biased at all. It’s a fabulous book for this genre, really! If you liked Olivia Goldsmith and her books, especially “Young Wives” or “Pen Pals“, if you like Linda Howard and her book “Son of the Morning“, or other novels about women on the run, women betrayed by family and friends, books about the wealthy losing it all, then this is going to be right up your alley!

Sophie Hegel is a new New Yorker transplanted from a small town in Arizona, and is a Yale Law School graduate. After living with her boy-friend for some time, he takes her to one of her favorite restaurants and he gives her a lovely long strand of pearls which can be wrapped around ones neck like a choker. Minutes later he also proposes. And here starts our story of a shy, easily manipulated, over-whelmed woman. Soon Sophie starts feeling the effects of Globus Sensate/Disphagia. She feels as if she has a “fist ball” in her throat any time she eats anything and starts swallowing.
Sophie Hagel is a lawyer living in New York City, has a successful fianceé, a job she likes, friends she admires and a degree she worked hard to earn. So why is she having issues with swallowing? She seems to have it all, but does she?
This is another book about the trials of a woman learning about herself, her limits and coming to grips with her past. Although sometimes predictable the book has some humor and very detailed description of one of the country’s most gripping moments. The author has caught the feel and way of life in NY and brought me back to memories in this former New Yorker’s life such as having a Sundae at Serendipity.
