Probably would not be my first choice, since I do not read romance. But the supernatural element is intriguing!

I wished Ruby's competency, smartness and assertiveness had translated into her capacity to choose Mr Right. Jones only reinforces the fact that magic wand and discretionary prowess are about the scarcest commodities available to a woman when love is involved. Great review.

I'm not a lover of romance novels, though I can read one being in special "romantic" mood. :roll: This book may be entertaining. Thank you for a detailed review! :wink2:

This is definitely not the typical romance novel. It sounds like a refreshingly unique plot. Great review!

What a great review! The minute I heard this book was romance, though, I knew I wasn't going to read it, no matter how good it is. I've tried reading the romance genre--unsuccessfully. I just can't get into it. I need a plot that has stuff blowing up in it, and that doesn't include tempers.

Thanks for the nice review. I am excited with the love-triangle of Ruby but I am more interested in the cave discovery of the three best friends. I know what the power of Ruby will do to the story.

Thank you for the interesting review. This seems to be a story about young love set in the 70s with nostalgic references to that era. It would be a trip down memory lane for me recalling the songs and the feelings of young love.
