Summary: Igniting Memories
Review: Excellent book that I couldn't put down. Casavant was brilliant in her descriptions. Great story line! I look forward to future works. It will remind you of when you fell in love. There is a happy ending. I was especially fond of the professional characters who happened to be lesbian. Classy!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Fantastic read!
Review: I picked up the book in the morning and simple could not put it down until I had finished it. Wonderful character development and the story line held my interest from page one until the very end. Casavant ranks with Radclyffe and Good which puts her in the top lesbian romance writers. Buy it today!

Summary: Rare Beauty
Review: I started reading this book last night and couldn't put it down until the wee hours this morning after I read the last page. After falling in love with Madison Williams, Lauren Taylor finally admits to herself she's gay. There's only one catch... Lauren is married to a US Senator who is planning to run for President. Torn between doing what's right for herself and what's right for others, Lauren makes herself, her husband, and Madison miserable for years before she decides what to do.

I could easily relate to characters on both sides of this equation. Superb book. Very highly recommended. I don't rate many books as 5 stars, but would have given this one 6 if that had been an option.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Life Story
Review: I'm not a big reader, but I had a hard time putting
this one down. I found myself reflecting on the
characters as if they were part of my life.

Great Read

Summary: Deb
Review: It's a good book to read. Especially on a road trip. You won't want to put the book down. It does contain infedility so not for everyone. It also gives you in sight on what it would be like to run for office.

Summary: Delightful Debut Novel By A Talented Author
Review: Lauren Taylor, a former investigative journalist, is the wife of a U.S. Senator who is exploring a run for the U.S. Presidency. Because of the political aspects of her life, Lauren has not been involved as a news reporter for quite some time. Instead, she's lived day to day without passion. When an old colleague confronts her with allegations that she had an affair with a female doctor named Madison Williams, Lauren is trapped by the facts of her past. She lies, but she knows the reporter only needs two sources of verification before he will have a field day. Though Lauren isn't in love with her husband, she does care about him, and in no way does she want anything from her past to come back to haunt him-or her-especially since giving up Madison was one of the most painful things Lauren had ever done.

And so begins Lauren's attempt to cover her tracks, but very soon she discovers that her long-submerged feelings for Madison are not so well buried after all. "Life had a strange way of creating events to wake people up form their self-induced comas" (p. 33), and Lauren ends up with a real wakeup call that has the power to ruin lives. Will her house of cards come tumbling down and destroy her husband and her organized life? And if it all gets out, what about Madison's life, her feelings, her livelihood?

Summary: Could be better
Review: The story is good, the characters are fine but the writing leaves much to be desired. Ms Casavant's editor has done her a grave disservice by failing to rein in the writer's fondness for adjectives, flowery descriptives and tired metaphors. This writer has talent; Twist of Fate doesn't showcase it.

Summary: Intrigue! Suspense! Drama! Romance!
Review: Travel along the road as two women - one who is presently married and whose spouse is aspiring for the highest office in the land - meet by chance, find themselves instantly attracted to each other and are separated by circumstance. Who will make the ultimate sacrifice and walk away? Who will not? What price will be paid? Will they be given another chance at romance? Will the old adage of "love conquers all" prove true? Full of twists and turns, this writer takes the reader on a great journey of drama, suspense, intrigue and, last but not least, romance and will keep you guessing until the very end. This is one journey you need to take!
