Thomas is a writer for the LA Times and he is determined to prove psychic/medium Sylvie is a fraud. She agrees to travel with him to her next show to prove she isn't a fraud. They travel by train to visit her parents and then on to the show. Along the way, we learn they both have tragic childhoods. We learn why Travis wants to out Sylvie and where's Sylvie's power comes from. I thought htis would be a fun rom com but it deals with some heavier issues.
This book has me hooked from the beginning, and I just couldn’t put it down. Not only it was brilliantly written but also the characters were so fun, entertaining and quite relatable; especially Sylvie, I really really liked her.
Sylvie is a young psychic, who is on her way to stardom. Thomas is a reported, with a past hurt by psychic's and a need for a big story. Can he expose her and stop future audiences from being hurt? Will the secret's discovered along the way heal their past and bring them together or tear them apart.
I don't say this often because it's said so much, but I really couldn't put this down.
The plot is unique and the characters are well developed.
Adding pets to the storyline was an enjoyable surprise.
It had the right amount of romance and mystery.
I really enjoyed spending my day reading this.
Thank you to NetGalley and Berkley Publishing.
This was an amazing read. It was not a romantic comedy, as I had expected from the blurbs. And I also did not expect the way it grabbed me from the first page. I received a digital arc one evening, and after checking the first page, I went on to ruin my evening, sleep, and next-morning schedules. Yes, I work full-time. I'm a librarian who reads lots of books. I still stayed up too late.
Friends won't let reading friends miss this story.
Sylvie is an unexpected mix of giftedness and self-doubt. And Tom is a sad mix of wounded but outwardly confident and aggressive. Author Fischer crafts an amazing, evocative plot line that shares their two backgrounds and weaves them together to form a compelling story of triumph, achievement, and promise for the future.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and I caught myself the next day planning to return to reading that ... oh, right, I finished that book. Bummer. This was a 24-hour read. You'll want to give this story a try.
