I remember loving Sweet Starfire and the Jayne Castle 'flower' series.<br /><br />I hadn't quite registered that she wasn't doing the Jayne Castle books lately, as I think I still have a couple of them on my kindle to read. If so, that would be a shame. Some of them got a bit dry, but yes, I'll miss those dust bunnies! But when the pet is the high point, you know things are not going well...Rosariohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13015659149421085931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730322.post-30732991856563529392018-08-20T16:30:26.440+01:002018-08-20T16:30:26.440+01:00I go a bit further back, as 'Coral Kiss' i...I go a bit further back, as 'Coral Kiss' is one of my re-read favorites, as are 'Silver Lining','Trust Me'(of course) and the Eclipse Bay series. I am also very fond of 'Sweet Starfire' And the earlier sci-fi series she did as Jayne Castle (Orchid, Zinnia, etc).<br />I don't know if she's quit writing the futuristic stuff as Jayne Castle. The most recent of those came out in 2016. The whole Harmony/Rainshadow Island thing had gotten stretched pretty thin, but I'll be sad to say goodbye to the dust bunnies.

I never even noticed that. Tells you ...Interesting. I never even noticed that. Tells you just how enthusiastic I was about that series, I suppose!<br /><br />She seems to have moved away somewhat from this sort of plot, for which I'm grateful. The suspense plots of her latest are still not that great, but definitely better. But I must say, whenever I go for a JAK reread, it's always stuff from the mid-to-late 90s, maybe early 2000s, but nothing later than that.

I wholeheartedly agree with your review. Liked the characters, plot made my eyes roll.<br />Obviously she and/or her publishers decided to throw in the towel on this 'trilogy', as the third book (all set up to be about the sister of the first two heroes and the son of the rival family)never happened. Oh well...<br />I probably have both Copper Beach and Dream Eyes sitting in a box somewhere, but doubt they'll get pulled out for a re-read anytime soon.Barb in Marylandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374278685536530837noreply@blogger.com
