Narrative During Books Heaven and Earth (Three Sisters Island #2)
Ripley Todd just wants to live a quiet, peaceful kind of life. Her job as a sheriff's deputy keeps her busy and happy, and she has no trouble finding men when she wants them - which, lately, isn't all that often. She's perfectly content, except for one thing: she has special powers that both frighten and confuse her, and though she tries hard to hide them, she can't get them under control. Distraction soon arrives in the handsome form of Mac Allister Booke - a researcher who's come to investigate the rumours of witchcraft that haunt Three Sisters Island. Right from the start, he knows there's something extraordinary about Ripley Todd. It's not just her blazing green eyes and her sultry smile. There's something else. Something he can detect, but she'll never admit. Fascinated by her struggle with her amazing abilities, he becomes determined to help her accept who she is - and find the courage to open her heart. But before Ripley and Mac can dream of what lies in the future, they must confront the pain of the past. For the island shelters centuries of secrets - and a legacy of danger that plagues them still.List Books Toward Heaven and Earth (Three Sisters Island #2)

3.5/5I ended up really enjoying this installment of the Three Sisters Island Trilogy, but not as much as I enjoyed the first book. It was nice to get back in this world with the characters I grew to love in the first story, and I liked focusing on Ripley. I'm looking forward to reading the final book to see how everything wraps up!I gave this book a rating of five stars but I still liked the first book (Dance Upon Air) a lot better. Ripley I didnt feel as much of a connection to but i still enjoyed her relationship with the cutie patootie that is Mac. Mac was a great character with the perfect amount of charm and a slight pinch of geeky-ness. Ripley I just found to be overboard on the tough girl front to the point where it almost became whiny in a way. I still enjoyed the setting and general idea of this trilogy. Im
Romance, suspense, action-packed, witches, humor, MF. I really enjoyed reading and just loved this Three Sisters Island Trilogy. :-) Would recommend this series and a few others as I starting on the Nora Roberts journey. :-) Book 2== Ripley and Mac fight each other's affections as they try not to fall for each other. Mac is doing research into Mia and finds more about his family history as well. Great ending start book 3 tomorrow.
3.75 stars - I didn't enjoy this as much as the first book in the series, Dance Upon the Air. Riley just wasn't a very relatable protagonist and Mac didn't seem to suit her as a love interest and was a bit weak for a Nora Roberts hero. I probably wouldn't recommend this as an example of Nora's best workThe plot was not as tight as Dance Upon the Air, but it did move the story on further and I'm invested enough in the characters and overarching plot to want to read the final book in the trilogy,
Ripley Todd is literally the least likable character of any Nora Roberts story Ive ever read. I can barely force myself through this book and I would
3.75 stars.I wanted to give this 3 stars because I was so annoyed with the heroine and wanted to slap her couple of times! Luckily I love the sweet and nerdy hero, he save the story for me.Also, in book #3 I found out why this heroine behaving like she was, and I can understand her more. But why we got the answer in the next book instead of in her book here? Sigh..
