Lauren is a forty-something year old woman, who’s never known the touch of a loving man. For most of her life, people have treated Lauren horribly. Those people even include her mother, Maxine Fowler. Who, for years on end has ingrained in Lauren that men were evil and not to be trusted. But things start to change for Lauren when Syntian Cree comes into town. Lauren notices that Syntian is one of the sexiest men she’s every seen and she’s not the only one to think so. As time passes, even though good things are happening for her, bad things are happening to those who have disrespected Lauren.
Charlotte Boyett-Compo has managed to write a dark, sensual tale that is very appealing. Readers will find that Syntian Cree is a very interesting character. The things that he does to avenge Lauren are certainly out of the ordinary, dark and scary. It was interesting to read how the tables turned on him. His world crumbled while Lauren’s shined brighter than ever. NightWind is quite a lengthy story. It will take a dedicated reader to sit down and stay with the story from beginning to end. The story certainly has a great deal of eye-catching, eye-popping moments that will definitely keep the reader flipping from page to page. I recommend that readers pick up this story and read Charlotte Boyett-Compo’s work.
