I loved this book. I’ve read quite a few Intrigues, and I don’t say that every day. Here’s the back cover of the book:

She was all caught up in his tangled lies…

The porcelain butterflies arrived like clockwork every year on her birthday. Rachel Chandler received gifts postmarked from exotic places all over the world from her brother Emmett, who had been living underground since his implication in a bombing in the later 1960’s.

After fifteen years, Rachel was about to see Emmett again. He had surfaced in Hawaii, and nothing could keep her from going to him. But when they did meet, Rachel knew something was terribly wrong. She hadn’t expected to recognize Emmett right away… but she hadn’t expected to be attracted to him either!

Well, if you need more than that to get you to open the book… The story is set up very well, with excellent pacing, good characters, and good resolution. The romance part of the story is handled artfully, actually eliciting an emotional response on the part of the reader. Recommended reading. ( )
