Joanne Jaytanie loves dogs, in particular Doberman Pinchers. If you did not know that from reading her biographical sketch, you would safely conclude it after reading the first book in the Winters Sisters series, "Chasing Victory".
Victory Winters' natural gifts are in demand. She has a bright mind and is an expert in genetics research. The catch is, not everyone is willing to pursue her honestly to acquire those gifts for their use. Especially Biotec's CEO, Lawrence Braxton. She has other gifts, as well, ones not known to general population, including a telepathic ability.
Tristan and Wyatt Farraday have adjoining interests. Finding out what Biotec is up to, and finding out more about Victory Winters and her lovely sister, Payton perhaps on more than a professional basis.
Some of the premises of this book, especially the research being done by Biotec, stretch the limits of how much a reader's imagination can expand. (No spoilers here.) BUT the grounding of the engaging characters (or evil of the villains), along with the wonderful Dobermans, easily overcome this issue and result in a good introduction to the novel.
I already have the second book in the series, and am curious what will be revealed in Payton's story.
RATING: 3 1/2 stars, rounded up to 4 stars.
DISCLOSURE: This book was provided free of charge as an "extra" in a random draw in which another book from the author was included. There was an implied request for an honest review, which you are reading now.
