Review Copy Received from Author
Summary: A ring around the sun foretells new beginnings. That’s exactly what Teal Marin needs. When she inherits a cabin in the woods of northern Minnesota, she sees an opportunity to escape her physically abusive lover and disappear. From the moment she steps off the bus, she realizes it won’t be easy—these weren’t the streets of Chicago.
As she battles against a new wintery enemy, a tall dark stranger emerges from the darkness. Darren Kennedy is a sports writer, nursing an old football injury and a broken heart in his cabin in the woods. He plucks Teal out the snow and teaches her the basics of cabin life. Together they ignite an unexpected passion that keeps them toasty warm.
Now Teal bathes in snowy, frigid sunshine with her new hero. Did she make a clean break? Not at all. Her former abuser wants his beautiful girl home.
Kathy’s Review: In Gemini Judson’s book, Ring Around the Sun, I enjoyed a nice, uncomplicated read that satisfied my craving for romance. That’s not to say that, being uncomplicated, I found the story uninteresting. On the contrary, I was quite involved with Teal and Darren’s story; their relationship happened fast, but it was sexy, and I very much liked them together. I also liked that they were aware of it and still they didn’t want to change anything.
I loved the nickname that Darren came up with for Teal; that was a really cute touch and spoke a lot to their differences when it came to the ‘great outdoors.’ But it also said a lot to the level of comfort that they experienced together.
I loved the descriptions of the area and the weather; I could see it ~ the storm, the mounds of snow all white, beautiful yet threatening and the dazzling wilderness. I found myself worrying for Teal when she was driving; Ms. Judson knew what she was talking about and made it real.
Along with the ability to show her scenes clearly, characterizations were also well done. I waited in dread for when Teal’s ex would make his appearance. When he did find Teal, I didn’t find it at all over-dramatized; the danger wasn’t downplayed and it made for some tense reading.
This isn’t a flashy story, but it is well-fleshed out with characters that are likable and scenes that come to life. Ring Around the Sun is Gemini Judson’s first published book, and I’m looking forward to many more. Her ability to tell an interesting story with well-fleshed out characters and intriguing situations promises many more hours spent very pleasantly; book in hand and story unfolding.
