Wild Orchids

Since his wife's death, world-famous author Ford Newcombe has lived a solitary life, void of creativity -- or love. Then Jackie Maxwell tears down the walls of his isolated world with her sassy wit and fierce intelligence. Ford's heart is touched by his vivacious assistant -- and his imagination sparked by her knowledge of a strange story that drives them to a small North Carolina town brimming with secrets. There, they will trace the mystery of a woman said to have loved the devil himself...and discover not only the truth about a crime from the past -- but a passion that holds the promise of a new life together. Jude Deveraux, whose "enchanting and extraordinary" (Chicago Daily Herald) novels have enthralled millions, creates two of her most memorable characters in this powerful bestseller.

I wasn’t sure what to expect but there was depth, engaging characters and an intriguing story. This is not your run-of-the-mill love story, ghost story, family drama or supernatural tale. It’s all of these and more. Don’t be put off by any description as it’s a lovely read that I highly recommend.

Having the devil observing and interfering in the characters’ lives made an interesting twist in a generally interesting plot. However, I deducted one star for the egregious error of placing the University of North Carolina in Raleigh. What the devil?

I didn’t read the inside cover so kept skipping along not realizing this was about the occult. My bad cause it’s not typically my cup of tea. I kept trying to figure a logical explanation. So Deveraux is no longer a “get it cause she wrote it” author for me. Was still good
