This is a great book, I like the premise(anything paranormal is my fav), the characters are interesting and some are downright creepy. I've read all her books & she just keeps getting better. Try her Amanda Quick books, too.

Another excellent entry in the Arcane Society series - great characters, suspenseful plotting and interesting setting - all set off by the touch of paranormal. This is one of the contemporary books [the historicals seem to be being published under the Amanda Quick name] and the sequel to White Lies. Operatives of the Nightshade group are the bad guys again - with a serving of serial killer on the side. Real page-turning read.

The Perfect Poison - Book 6
Running Hot - Book 5
The Third Circle - Book 4
Sizzle and Burn - Book 3
White Lies - Book 2

Boring.......I couldn't get into it, there is no chemistry between the characters, left it half way through.

Growing up this was one of my favorite authors but over time I felt that I kept getting the same old story over and over again. It got to a point where I didn't even get her books however, I can say that the magic of her early works has returned! I love this series and can't wait for the next book!

Another great one by Krentz with an interesting storyline and likeable characters. Worth the read.

Wow the sizzle between Raine and Zack is intense. I really enjoyed the suspense in this one and the serial killer was a real surprise. The methods of J&J investigators borders on vigilantism which is kind of scary considering the power they have. Maybe the new management will make some positive changes. Jayne Anne never disappoints.

Eh.
That's about the most sentiment I was able to muster for this one. I felt the pacing was slow, plot premise had great potential but underdeveloped and a little vanilla for me. Not a BAD read but far from the sizzle and burn I was expecting, more like sputter and die.

Great story. A little of the paranormal involved. Reminds us that while we are all a product of our childhoods, we can all overcome them

I really liked this installment in her Arcane series and I still love her style of work but this wasn't my favorite.

The Arcane Society series just keeps getting better and better. I loved the push and pull between Raine and Zack. Who would have thought that hearing voices and seeing visions could be so much fun. I can't wait for the next book to come out in paperback.

Book three in the Arcane Society series.
A solid story in the series, the mystery was actually more effective than the romance. I kept wondering how people with these types of psychic talents would ever go out to public places, since it seemed that they had no real control over the voices or visions. But get past that and you have a solid romantic thriller. I'll continue to read the series.

Another fun, page turning Arcane novel by Ms. Krentz. It twists and turns and keeps you guessing. Charming romantic mystery. I really enjoyed White Lies, but I think I liked this one even better.

This is a delightful book containing all the elements of suspense, romance ant the paranormal. It will keep you turning pages until you reach the surprise ending.

I enjoy this author because she actual has a plot and doesn't write in the typical romance style. It is a bit on the sci-fi side but not over the top. You also don't need to read the other books in the series to understand any other one. She writes them as a series because they all take place in the same alternate planet.

Raine Tallentyre discreetly uses her psychic abilities to help solve
cold cases. When she initiates a romantic relationship with the
detective she assists, she is cruelly rebuffed. Raine should have
listened to the advice of her recently departed Aunt Vella-never share
the secret of your psychic gifts. With a lonely future in front of
her, Raine journeys to Shelbyville, Washington to settle her aunt's
estate and put Aunt Vella's home on the market. In her aunt's
basement, Raine discovers a barely alive woman trapped in a foot
locker, the interrupted work of a serial killer.

Arriving in Shelbyville on behalf of the Arcane Society, investigator
Zack Jones needs information from Raine Tallentyre. Raine is
immediately attracted to Zack. Zack is far from repelled by her
psychic ability. In fact, he has them too! Raine and Zack immediately
share an intimate connection. With a serial killer targeting Raine
and Nightshade operatives surrounding them, Raine and Zack must turn
to their paranormal gifts and each other in order to survive.

Readers all over the world look to Jayne Ann Krentz for truly
exceptional writing. No matter what genre Ms. Krentz takes her pen
to, the results are the same-reader satisfaction! Sizzle and Burn,
Ms. Krentz's latest addition to the Arcane series, is a wholly
pleasurable read. Sizzle and Burn's succulent romance and imaginative
paranormal twists are a reader's delight! Don't miss this series from
this wonderful author!
