This is the second story in Candace Poarch "Quest for the Golden Bowl series" Where Paradise Island only detective Alyssa Claxton find herself caught up in investigating both family and friends in the island murders of a family member an family friend while also trying to fight the attraction she has for businessman Jordon Ellis who has unsucessfully been trying to get a date with her for months without success but the two manage to share a night of love making while away on a Biker's weekend trip which for Alyssa was a one time deal but Jordon has other plans for it to go beyond that one night but with the murders of people they both know they seem to be thrown together while both try to fugure out why and what the victims has in common to cause their death so sit back and enjoy a little romance with a lot of mystery and suspense in the search of the killer and the mysterious Golden Bowl it was a nice read and fun visiting with some of the chacacters from the first book Golden Night while this story can be read as a stand alone I suggest reading the first one also as it will enlighten you on the search of the missing Golden Bowls and how it all came about from years back through family history. I can't wait tfor the third book in the serious. ( )
