Shelby Kent Stewart is a superb author of mystery, crime and a bit of delicious erotica. She also adds just touch of a supernatural element in her main character,Sydney. The kind of thing we’ve all experienced (one way or another) in our lifetime. That tap on the shoulder,(so to speak) or the gut feeling we sometimes ignore. That metaphysical element we’ve perhaps experienced is another thing that drew me in!
As an avid reader I’d always leaned toward crime novels, and have read most series on the NYTimes best list.
Recently I discovered Shelby Kent Stewart, and what a find! I just read “Surviving Sydney” I was unable to put it down! Because I’m not on vacation I had to pick it up whenever the opportunity rose & that was hard to do! I’d be in heaven with the thought of having a stack of Shelby Kent Stewart novels packed away in my suit case heading to the beach. Something I have to look forward to this summer!
“Surviving Sydney” is a delicious treat,filled with intrigue,crime & mystery! The story keeps you captivated, wanting to dive in & only come up for an occasional meal or glass of wine. It was the erotica that pleasantly surprised me. Hot & steamy & I believe Shelby writes directly to every woman’s appetite & satisfies! A delicate balance,so well written that it was the mystery & intrigue that gripped me,& the erotica that made me feel deeply female in every wanted way! It was just a magnificent amount of “hot” without being gratuitous.
As you can tell, I’m hooked!
I just started Book 2 by Shelby Kent Stewart “Blessing”
Again, I want to savour each page! It too is a real page turner! Once again I am captivated with each character, stealing moments or an hour here & there to get back to it. Each character frozen where I’d left them, & thinking of them when I’m not reading.
Seeing how many more novels written by Shelby Kent Stewart, I realize that I will be able to fill up my beach bag with many more of her novels. I love paper back books, but since being on this site I see there is no need, her books are just a click away on Amazon. Good! So when I spread the word to my adult daughter & many adult nieces they can get Shelby Kent Stewart novels that way.
Now I am beyond excited that I wrote this, in hopes that there is a woman out there (or man) that wants an opinion on what book to read, you will not be dissapointed! I can’t think of a better addition this summer than Surviving Sydney, or any one of her novels! I’m thoroughly enthralled with “Blessing” right now, & have “Brat” as my 3rd novel of hers.
A huge thank you to the author, Shelby Kent Stewart, for her work to entertain & delight her readers.
Deb, a simple ‘thank you’ isn’t enough. You have no idea what your kind words mean to me or how much I appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. What a gift you are! Love and light, S.
