Rating: Summary: Timeless Tales review Review: By TT reviewer Lynne Temple [full review on our website]Patricia Diamonte begins her move to New York with an explosion. From out of the smoky haze, a hero emerges. Dylan Stone with his powerful, commanding voice ushers Patricia out of a dangerous situation. Once she has been pulled to safety, Patricia realizes that she has nothing. Her purse, briefcase, and the last of her money are gone. Somewhere in the debris of the explosion are the material things that she desperately needs, including the key to her brother's apartment. Given two dollars by a kind paramedic, Patricia arrives home and is visited by Dylan. With their personal and professional lives intertwined, Patricia faces a personal crisis with the knowledge that her brother Eddie was adopted. Eddie returns from Paris with his new wife, Michelle, making Patricia feel even more out of place living in the small apartment with them. Then, while talking to her brother, a crushing blow comes when she finds out that she was also adopted. Her life begins to spin out of control. Many questions plague her: Who are her real parents? Why did they give her up? And the heartbreaking wonder of who she is. Patricia is torn with personal conflicts, work deadlines, and her valiant search for her true identity. Her biggest challenge may be keeping Dylan by her side. This was a wonderful, fast paced book. I had a hard time putting it down as each page entranced me with the particular insight of adoption, and intrigued me with the questions that are brought up when you feel as if your entire life has been a lie. As each chapter went on, I felt I had a good inkling of the outcome. This is a refreshing book that left me anxious for a sequel.
