The Hourglass Door by Lisa Mangum
The Hourglass Door is the perfect combination of a clean read with delicious romantic angst.
Food to eat while reading: Time-stopping Chocolate Truffles
Drawn in by the prologue, I thirstily drank this story up in a few days, even though I had many other books I was supposed to be reading. The prologue is intriguing and an even better read a second time upon completion of the novel.
I like Jason, but I am glad when Abby starts to fall for Dante. The angst that Mangum creates by the price they have to pay for physically touching each other is brilliant. And I found it interesting how Dante and his associates can release the pressure of their existence through the arts.
