Dark Mind By Jennifer Chase


On the stunning Hawaiian island of Kauai, Emily Stone and Rick Lopez are desperate to locate a young girl abducted by slave traders. Emily and Rick are both experienced in law enforcement but are now on a personal mission of their own. When they successfully rescue the missing girl they come into contact with Sergeant Lani Candena of the local police and embark upon a somewhat strained relationship with the local authorities. They decide to spend some time in this tropical paradise to rest and relax unaware of the deadly trials that are coming their way as they immerse themselves in the search for a serial killer.

The characters of Emily and Rick are rich in detail and compassion. They have a great love for each other and communicate on a level all their own. They both are extremely strong in mind and body and determined to make a difference and deliver justice.

Jordan and Lani are great characters that are also deeply involved in this story. They are strong, loyal and extremely realistic. They each wrestle with their own emotions and inner challenges while playing an integral part in the story.

The colorful description of the luscious Hawaiian island will paint a picture of the beautiful backdrop to this story while at the same time illuminating the horrific crime scenes amidst the splendor of the island.

Dark Mind is written with a sharp attention to detail and a commanding knowledge that Jennifer Chase lends to the readability and believability of this book. The suspense is never ending and the unfolding mystery will keep you totally engaged.

I recommend this book to all readers for its intensity and gripping storyline, this is a book that will keep you guessing and on the edge of your seat until the final page is read.

Happy Mother's Day



A Mother's Love 


There are times when only a Mother's love
Can understand our tears,
Can soothe our disappoints
And calm all of our fears.
There are times when only a Mother's love
Can share the joy we feel
When something we've dreamed about
Quite suddenly is real.
There are times when only a Mother's faith
Can help us on life's way
And inspire in us the confidence
We need from day to day.
For a Mother's heart and a Mother's faith
And a Mother's steadfast love
Were fashioned by the Angels
And sent from God above.
