Description Concering Books It Sleeps in Me (In Me #1)
Sora is the wise, young High Chieftess of the Black Falcon Nation. For many winters her heart belonged to her husband, Flint, a warrior from a neighboring clan. Flint truly loved Sora, but jealousy drove him to beat men to death for merely casting a longing glance at his wife. Unable to live with his murderous rage, Flint moved back to his mother's clan, divorcing Sora and leaving her forever.Remarried and fully devoted to her duties as the High Chieftess, Sora tries to bury her memories of Flint. Then, on the eve of war with a neighboring nation, she is visited by Skinner, an old friend of Flint. Skinner tells her of Flint's death, but Sora feels that he carries part of Flint's soul inside him. When Skinner reveals secrets that only Flint would know, and rouses her passion in ways only Flint had, Sora must figure out if this is the clever witchcraft of enemies who want to seize her power and destroy her nation, or the spirit of her one and only true love.

Their series is amazingKathleen ONeal Gear created a complex and intriguing character with Sora, the High Chieftess of the Black Falcon Nation. Gear pulled me immediately into wanting to know who Sora is with the first sentence in the book,OF COURSE, YOU DONT UNDERSTAND. HOW COULD ANY SANE person believe that he is still alive inside me? As I delved deeper into Soras world it nt only showed me a cultures beliefs, customs, and mythology but how the Native Americans explained schizophrenia or epilepsy. Not only does
The plot was barely 3-star but what I liked about this book was the total twist ending. Based on my previous experience with Gear novels, I was surprised by how much magic and mysticism was apparently driving the story. Until the very last chapter - Well done! That's all I'll say.
I didn't really care for this book. I didn't like the ending at all. I guess because I didn't get any satisfying conclusions at the end like I expected.
SUMMARY: In this first of a trilogy, High Chieftess Sora of the Black Falcon Nation is visited by an old friend who brings her word of her former husbands death. Sora begins to feel afraid when the friend starts to behave strangely, almost as though he carries the soul of her husband inside himself. Is this an enemys witchcraft or the spirit of her first and greatest love? COMMENTS: suspenseful and erotic, with the Gears usual historical and cultural detail
Loved this book. I couldn't put it down. Gear does her usual excellent job of developing characters and describing the world the characters lived in. This book has a definite mystery to it. I went back and forth with who was causing all of the problems Sora was encountering. I can't wait to get started on the second book in the triology.
I flew through this book for some reason. It was engaging, well-researched, sexy, and interesting. The tense moments kept me from putting this one down any time soon. I really liked the main character, Sora.
