"Just finished this last night. I love the Jayne Castle titles and am always so glad to go back to JAK's other world. Really like the characters and am enjoying the Rainshadow story line. Look forward to the next in this series; my only complaint is the length of the wait for the next one."
— Betty (4 out of 5 stars)
" was pretty good. I really liked that Slade and Charlotte made an appearance and i have a feeling that they will in the next rainshadow book as well. "
— Brianna, 2/3/2014" Straight onto my keeper-reread shelf. I love this series. "
— Jenny, 1/28/2014" When you want a romantic thriller with a sci fi twist, try a book by Jayne Castle. I do enjoy how she entwines her historical and contemporary storylines. "
— Bethe, 1/24/2014" Those who are not reading the series in order may not enjoy this book. I sure did. It was not as good as some of the earlier books in the series, but still was very good. I did not like the fact that some plot elements remain unresolved for the next book. "
— Mollie, 1/23/2014" I liked this book. It provided a little more information on the Rainbow island and the Preserve. "
— Lorraine, 1/19/2014" Realy enjoy this series. "
— Terry, 1/10/2014" Though i usually love amanda quick, i did not like this universe which is somewhere in space with dust bunnies as protectors of homes, it all felt flat. "
— Marie-claude, 12/30/2013" I enjoyed reading this book very much but kept getting the feeling that I had missed a book or two somewhere along the line. I checked and could find none that I had not read but the author kept alluding to events which I had no knowledge about. Pure fluff but enjoyable. "
— Donna, 12/29/2013" Another Rainshadow book. Still good. "
— Jeri, 12/21/2013" Loved this book. Can't wait for the next one in the series. I love Jayne Castles take on the paranormal!!!!! "
— dragonsdy, 12/9/2013" I like the universe in which this series take place, but this is just an okay addition to the series. "
— M, 12/9/2013" Weak three stars. "
— MsMari, 10/24/2013" I'm getting used to her odd little world and enjoying it. Looking forward to the next one. Is there dust bunny romance in the air? "
— Jeanne, 10/16/2013" . Liked the story and the characters :) "
— Larissa, 9/30/2013" As always, this new addition to the series is a fun read. "
— Joy, 7/1/2013" Love the dust bunnies. "
— Kathy, 5/25/2013" More like a 2.5.. "
— Marjorie, 5/22/2013" This one didn't have as much sparkle to it as some of the other series starters. Good characters - I liked the relationship connection with Shade and Charlotte - helps connect the larger Harmony series. "
— Annette, 3/13/2013" Liked a lot. These are fun futuristic novels. Need to know what happens to each character. "
— Virginia, 12/12/2012" Rainshadow Island and Preserve is a very cool SF setting, and I loved Rachel's missing time, but the story leaned too heavily to the mystery and too light on the romance for my tastes. "
— Nicole, 9/6/2012" This was an enjoyable read, but not my favorite in the series. I would have liked to see more romantic and emotional development between Harry and Rachel. "
