A great read that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...

1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.

2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.

3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.

4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.

5 stars... I loved this book! It had earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP.

An easy read...Number 3 in the Feng Shui mystery series with tips and charts. More romance than mystery. I wouldn't go seeking another book by this author but if I found a used one (cheap) I would read it.

The feng shui bits are intriguing but the mystery falls somewhat flat and I find no interest in the will they, won't they romance between the lead character and the man from her past.

Not a favorite. Interesting concept, but it got lost in the weeds.
