Housewife Blues and Chihuahua Stories

Lifelong Texan, love reading from many genres thanks to early childhood readalongs with my Dad, love cooking for my family, working in my yard, playing with my cats and since being diagnosed in late 2012 with RRMS finding ways to keep body and mind active is even more important.
Dark Embrace (Masters of Time, Book 3) - Brenda Joyce Book 3 Masters of Time series starts us on the path to the trilogy of the "Rose Women", the stories of Brianna, Tabitha and Samantha (Sam) and the "Masters" who they become involved with.... In "Dark Embrace" we are taken through the tale of one of my personal favorite characters in the series, Aidan-The Wolf Of Awe and Brie Rose....Aidan started out to be a character full of fun and a lover of all things bright and beautiful, in his story we find him turned into a dangerous bitter man full of vengeance and darkness!In 2008 New York, Brie Rose is a part of the secret organization the CDA that hunts down and eliminates the evil that continuously destroys the Innocents that they as well as the Masters are sworn to protect! However she is not a field operative but rather a researcher and Empath who sits on the sidelines while the others actively hunt down and destroy the Deamhan's who have become more and more plentiful in recent years... I thought Aidan was a hoot when he was flirting with Claire in Dark Seduction in order to make his half brother Malcolm jealous! I fell in lust with him when he was running around gathering modern clothing for Allie and generally making himself helpful in Dark Rival.. Now in Dark Embrace I have truly fallen in love with his tormented character and rooted every step of the way when the only one who seemed to care enough to help was Brie! Aidan had not "felt" true human emotion in over 66 years for anyone until he rescued Brianna Rose when she was attacked on the streets of New York in 2008, about a year after he had first encountered her when in the company of Allie. Since the first time he saw her though she made an impression on him and when he brought her back to his time to keep her safe she comes to understand that it was her Fate to be there, her Fate to heal and bring Aidan back to the light and prove to everyone that the Master he was meant to be was still there waiting for a chance to once again be on the side of right fighting evil and protecting Innocence as he was always meant to do!Having devoured this book in one day am now starting on the next phase of the Rose Trilogy reading the story of Tabitha and Guy MacLeod in book #4 "Dark Victory", join me again won't you and let us see where the next journey takes us in the fight against evil and the romance through time!
