The Blurb:
Her voice was a curse...
When Dylan "Oz" Oswin's son is kidnapped, the high-powered producer will do anything to get him back. Desperately following an anonymous tip, he seeks help from a former child singing sensation called Syrene, only to find she's vowed never to sing again. Immune to her voice but not her charm, Oz is convinced she holds the key to his son's disappearance—and he'll stop at nothing to make her break her vow.
Only he can make her sing...
She knows the devastation her talent can bring. There's more than a child's life at stake, but Syrene cannot unleash her dangerous siren's voice upon the world, even for a man who is impossible to deny.

The Review:
This have been on my wishlist for a
long time, but I never got around to buy it until now. And I am
glad I read it. This is Patricia Rice at her best.
The book hooked me from the start.
The California setting felt believable, and I liked how the citizens
of El Paso supported Pippa. I liked how they were depending on
farmers and tourists, and how it made their economy vulnerable.
And.. Into this Oz storms. I liked Oz,
and how he was prepared to do anything to find his son. It would
have been easy for Pippa be steamrolled by Oz, but I liked how she
stood her ground, and refused. It was intresting to meet the rest
of the inhabitants, and Conan. Who was geeky like always.
The plot was fascinating, and I liked
how everything was connected. Pippa's past, Oz missing son, the
villain. What I also liked was how Pippa slowly started to step out
of her shell, and start to heal from the past scars.
So what I didn't like. Sometimes I got
confused over when the kidnapping happened, if it had happened when
Donal was a baby or when he was older.
