Product Description
New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan presents the story of Sarah, the eldest of the extraordinary-and magical-Drake sisters, now rewritten and expanded, in this very special collector's edition.
"Sarah Drake has come home." Ever since Damon Wilder sought refuge in Sea Haven, he's heard the same breathless rumor pass the lips of nearly every local in the sleepy coastal town. Even the wind seems to whisper her name-a reverie so powerfully suggestive that it carries the curious Damon to Sarah's cliff-top home, and seeks to shelter him there. But Damon has not arrived alone. A killer has tracked him to Sea Haven, and into the shadows of Drake House. But Sarah has her own secrets, and danger-as well as a desire more urgent than either has ever known-is just a whisper away...

 Magical - Action Packed - Sensual story October 15, 2005

Damon Wilder seemed to hear it in the wind `Sarah's come home'. Damon was a man who sought anonymity and refuge in the small seaside town of Sea Haven, he was annoyed to say the least of the whispers, as well as the very wind seemingly telling him - `Sarah's come home...' - Who was this paragon? Who was this god-like woman that the town seemed so in awe of. Even Sarah's house - Drake house - the house that sat on a clifftop opposite his, was intriguing and something of a mystery. He could go and investigate why the paint seemed so pristine and well-preserved for a house on the edge of the sea - after all, he was a scientist wasn't he, and if they were using a special paint preservative - it would be neighborly to share the secret.
Though Sarah had come home to Drake house, it wasn't that alone that drew her. She had her own agenda, and secrets. Damon had not arrived in the sleepy coastal town alone. Dangerous men had tracked him down and Sarah, a security expert (among other things) was there to protect him - whether he wanted her protection or not. When these two finally met, what would be revealed was a prophecy come true, as both Damon and Sarah discovered a desire and a passion more burning than either had ever experienced before. As with all things, happily ever after could only come true if Sarah, with the help of her sisters, could keep the aura of death that surrounded Damon from claiming him for his latest victim.
*** Okay, I confess that I have been lax in finally getting around to see what all the hubbub has been about this author, but finally - I see! Boy, do I ever! What I find even more incredible is that this author has made a fan of me with a little over 100 pages that blended in action, suspense and an almost erotic sensual feeling to a romance I found totally satisfying and didn't want to end. Luckily, this is a reprint of a story from an anthology previously published as LOVER BEWARE, but more importantly, as the first in a series, I will now be on the lookout for the rest of the books that will be published in what looks to be an amazing Drake Sisters series. Captivating, original, and totally satisfying - I personally can't wait for the rest of the adventures sure to come regarding the magical sisters in this remarkable Drake family series.
Blown away by a magical writer... again! March 19, 2006

Whether you have read any of the other Drake sister stories or not; you will smile, cringe and drop your jaw in awe while you read this book. You will fall in love with the characters. It's always an equality of the sexes... no fainting females here. Every character of Ms. Feehan's novels inspire with their faith, intellegence and courage in the face of adversity.
This novella by Christine Feehan is another in a great line of extraordinary literary prowess. Every time you start a new chapter, you'll think, "I'll just read this chapter and I'll put it down". That will never happen. You will find yourself at the end of the book and counting the days until another of the series hits the market.
I have started 3 other members of my family reading Ms. Feehan's books and we all love the enchantment she creates.
completely entertaining for what it is worth February 23, 2006

It is a very short and easy to read book that does start a series. I have read the first three books of the "Drake sisters series", which according to the author have a book for each of the seven sisters. I enjoyed this one the most because the plot was always fresh. The other books revisit some plots that start getting slightly predictable. but I plan on finishing up the series because they are easy to read, overall excellent stories, and all the main characters are likeable. I thought this book was good as a complete story, but it did leave me interested in the rest of the characters lives.

I injoy reading Christine Feeham's novels and novellas. Her Drake Sisters, The GhorstWalker, and The Dark Series are my favorites. I look forward to every new novel to come out. She is a wonderful author and it is hard to put the book down, because something is always happening and I want to find out if the characters overcome their sicuations and find happiness in the end.
Sicerely,

I have never read a book by Christine Feehan and I must say " If I could give this book 10 stars I would do it in a hearbeat." I'm now looking for the rest of the books in the series.
