Not sure if the content's been changed along with it's new title, but the original version was great. ( )A light, fun read, somewhat flawed because of the difficulties of writing a sequel to a romance that features the same heroine, made even more difficult when the hero of the first book spends most of the sequel in a different world. The heroine's narrative voice does seem far younger than her given age, but I can't say I haven't known anybody in her thirties like that, either. I'm holding onto this one in spite of its low rating because it does tie in closely with a series that otherwise rates three stars. This sequel to ’Divine by Mistake’ continues the adventures of Shannon Parker, originally sucked from her schoolteacher life in Oklahoma into an alternate fantasy reality in which she is betrothed to a real-life centaur and revered as a goddess incarnate. Just as she is settling into and growing to love her new home and hunky husband, Shannon is uprooted once again and deposited into her old world to fix the trouble caused by her "double," a not-so-nice mirror image of herself who caused all this world-switching in the first place. Enlisting Shannon’s help is her husband’s double, who is just as handsome as he is. While the story is fun, the author’s ultra-casual writing style can be extremely irritating, and Shannon's inner dialogue belies the fact that she's thirty-five years old. no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 037380251X, Mass Market Paperback)After being mistaken for a goddess in the mythic world of Partholon, high school English teacher Shannon Parker settled in. She adores her sexy centaur husband, is getting used to her connection to the powerful goddess Epona and thoroughly enjoys the pampering from both! All is looking very right in her world…until she is wrenched from Partholon and sent back to Oklahoma.
As she struggles to return to the world and the husband she loves, Shannon discovers she is not alone.
A great evil has followed her. Now more than just Shannon's future is at stake, and she needs to somehow tap into our world's dormant magic. Her only ally is her husband's mirror image in Oklahoma--a man who loves her too much. Shannon must figure out a way to vanquish the ancient evil and not lose her life, her soul or her heart.
Along the way she discovers that being divine by mistake is a lot easier than being divine by choice…. (retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:57:58 -0400) The first test round has been closed. Visit the Open Shelves Classification group for details. |
