First book I am reading by this author and I was really impressed.

There were many timelines. Childhood, teenage and adult. All the timelines were handled beautifully.
The starting from the point of view of a young child was really good.

There were many characters and each of their stories were heard.

I am definitely going back for more books by this author.

The book was better than I expected but could have been tighter. The whole story about Eve and Tyler was unneccessary and distracting from the core stories of Maylene and Allison and the building of the Jade Palace.

Island of Dreams by Katherine Stone
Pierce Rourke is an architect. He believes in dreams-for others and he believes in love-for others.
He's designed just a place to hold a wedding.
Anna Finch is a librarian but the accident leaves many things to mystery. The book concentrates on her finding out who she
is and where she was raised. Lots of travel as the clues come in to help solve the mystery.
She is searching for something but she doesn't know what it is.
I found this book confusing because of the name changes, I just couldn't keep the characters straight.
I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device).

Despite the fact that Stone's plots are over the top and prose rather flowery (or perhaps because of?), I adore her books. This was another solid read from her. I really enjoyed the characters and the overall storyline. The drama, the romance, the betrayals and acceptance - all of it was well done.
