Story
Seven months ago, Pallas Llewellyn, Talia March, and Amelia Rivers were strangers, until their fateful stay at the Lucent Springs Hotel. An earthquake and a fire partially destroyed the hotel, but the women have no memory of their time there. Now close friends, the three women co-host a podcast called the Lost Night Files, where they investigate cold cases and hope to connect with others who may have had a similar experience to theirs—an experience that has somehow enhanced the psychic abilities already present in each woman.

Story
Hannah Harte remembers the long-ago night on the beach that revealed Rafe as more than just "that disreputable Madison boy." And Rafe remembers the heroic gesture that proved Hannah's fierce spirit was stronger than any feud—and saved him from near-certain imprisonment. Now—reunited by a surprising inheritance after years of living their separate lives—Rafe and Hannah return to Eclipse Bay, and the hostilities that still divide, and bind, their families. And they are discovering something that is at once delightful and deeply disturbing.

Early Effort by a Genre Master
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
I am somewhat ambivalent on this question. I enjoyed listening to one of the early efforts by a favorite author. However, like many early works, it is not up to the standards of this author's efforts in the last ten to fifteen years. It is not a story that really held my interest and is not one I want to listen to ten or more times as I have some of her others.
Would you be willing to try another book from Jayne Ann Krentz? Why or why not?
Oh definitely. As mentioned above, I could tell that this was a very early work by a favorite author and someone who is one of the best authors in the romance genre.
Any additional comments?
Get this on sale if curious about Krentz development as an author. However, don't expect too much.

From 1985, under pseudonym Stephanie James
I'm absolutely a devotee of Krentz' later years, even twenty years plus. But in her earliest Silhouette and Harlequin years, she wrote to fit a somewhat different genre. Besides being shorter in length, those early books under many other pen-names were much more about ultra-macho dominating men, with women co-leads who asserted themselves only to a token degree, but then adored those do-what-I-tell-you controlling alpha males. This one is a fairly enjoyable listen for mature, confident women, but markedly less so for girls or immature women who might think that sort of relationship shows he-must-love-me-see-how-jealous (overly controlling) my man is.

GOOD OLDIE
Loved this story when it first came out, and is still good today - even if a bit outdated, I would still recommend it.

Dramatically Angry Performance
This performance was very distracting for me. She was overly dramatic, and her men's voices were stilted and halting. The hero and heroine were not likable characters when she voiced them. The heroine was voiced as a whiny, recalcitrant shrew, and the hero did not sound like a professor, but like a pompous, arrogant bully who pauses between each word. It's difficult to listen to a romance novel that has characters that you can't possibly root for.

I know it had it's bad moments I enjoyed it anyway
I, unlike most of the other reviewers quite liked this, maybe if I'd actually read the book I may have felt differently, but it is what it is - a lighthearted feel good totally fictional romance novel. I agree that the female character was a really annoying bit_ _ and very dislikeable and that there were 'eye rolling' parts but it was also fun and enjoyable. However, I'm a JAK fan and pretty much love all her work but some are better than others and this one's a 3 not a 5.
Worth a credit? No, but get I'd get it if it's on sale and be happy.

Good story but could use some updating
This story could use some updating but overall it’s a good story. The h stands up for herself, is actually quite smart and learns her own worth. The H is a nice guy and is supportive. Some of the interrelationship values are quite dated but if you can get past that it’s a good book.

Narrator ruined it
The narrator makes the heroine sound like such a flighty bubble head you can’t possibly like her. The rest of the over dramatized narration isn’t much better. The story itself is dated, but I can usually get past that. The narration just ran it into the ground. Love this author, maybe I’ll read the book instead.

The narration! Yikes
I'm guessing this book is early Krentz before she got the hang of the strong heroine. Readable, and I do mean "readable." However, this narrator chose to turn a weak-ish heroine into a petulant brat, striking out at the hero because she dislikes herself. Just an awful narration, taking a so-so book and making it unbearable. Are there no editors/directors for these things What were they, or this vituperative narrator, thinking???
