Ripley Todd just wants to live a quiet, peaceful kind of life. Her job as a sheriff's deputy keeps her busy and happy, and she has no trouble finding men when she wants them--which, lately, isn't all that often. She's perfectly content, except for one thing: she has special powers that both frighten and confuse her--and though she tries hard to hide them, she can't get them under control.... Distraction soon arrives in the handsome form of MacAllister Booke--a researcher who's come to investigate the rumors of witchcraft that haunt Three Sisters Island. Right from the start, he knows there's something extraordinary about Ripley Todd. It's not just her blazing green eyes and her sultry smile. There's something else. Something he can detect, but she'll never admit. Fascinated by her struggle with her amazing abilities, he becomes determined to help her accept who she is--and find the courage to open her heart. But before Ripley and Mac can dream of what lies in the future, they must confront the pain of the past. For Three Sisters shelters centuries of secrets--and a legacy of danger that plagues them still.... "A storytelling wizard." -- Publishers Weekly

So far so good? Just received it and not but halfway through yet. Nora Roberts' trilogies are always entertaining though , and I'm sure this one will not prove me wrong.

Supernatural Romance with Style
Ripley Todd, the main character in this second book of the island trilogy, is a tough cookie and trying to cope with a gift she can't seem to control. She is human but also has power as a witch and wants to deny it.
Denying it does not become an option and a paranormal professor makes all the difference in her new attitude toward Mia her former friend and sister. Ripley finds out she can't run away from yourself and your destiny without a price.
This is a great read but read book one first and you will enjoy it more."Dance in the Air."
The three books by Nora Roberts are staying in my library so I can visit Three Sister's Island any time I want to.

Very good book
This book is a wonderful book. As a matter of fact so is the other two book in this trilogy. If you want a good book to read anytime Roberts' book should be it. This book is different not your usually boy meets girl love story but boy meets witch love story who doesn't want to be a witch or accept who and what she is.

Roberts at her best!
I've read the 3 books in the trilogy, and I absolutely love this one because I can so relate to Ripley. Nora Roberts is a wonderful romance author and she spares no detail. I actually stayed up till 1am on a workday to finish this book!
