Romancing the Stone Witch by Keri StevensMy rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Romancing
the Stone Witch is book one in the Cards of Coventry series by Keri Stevens.
The book focuses on main character Delia Forrest, who has the unique gift of
being able to speak to statues. Being a stone conservator, the statues talk to
her incessantly and seem to be her only friend in a world which has been quite
cruel to her and her gifts. When her estranged father is hurt in a house fire,
Delia’s world comes crashing down around her as a man from her past, Grant
Wolverton comes back into the picture and tries to take her beloved house from
her. But Grant is not the person that Delia remembers and the reason that he
has come back into her life may not necessarily be altruistic.
This was definitely
an interesting story with a good story line and some great characters. Delia is
shy, quiet and vulnerable to begin with, but her confidence grows throughout
the book as does her relationship with the ever-brooding Grant. I enjoyed the sometimes-hilarious
interplay that Delia has with the statues as well as the twist and turns in the
book as we figure out who the players are and how they all fit together.
A good
read and a great start to a new series!
