Review

A genre-bending novel that will surprise you...Amazon Reviewer -JRA

Praise for The Choice, the first book in the Walk the Right Road Series:

From Romance Junkies
"A modern day crime with all the right elements to make the book enticing. Lust, love, lies and trust are perfectly matched to just a spark of magic. Now I must anxiously await the newest edition of THE CHOICE."

With her finger on the pulse of human emotion and life choices very closely linked with everyday issues, Ms. Eckhart is spot on with the chemistry between our hero and heroine. Their lives are emotionally drained and to the brink of hopelessness, however their determination to stand up for what is right made me want to stand up and yell BRAVO! This is what humanity is all about! The darkness surrounding our characters metaphorically and physically bring realism to a world that does exist in society, and the way she masterfully works out each detail was brilliant.
~The TBR Pile *Book review site*

From the Author

Every book I write has characters near and dear to my heart. The books I write are the ones I want to read, with characters I want to meet, (Okay maybe one or two I'd rather not), but with hero's to cheer for, and always love to hope for.

Brilliant story - have to read the next one immediately

Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2021

Verified Purchase

Marcie falls for the wrong guy who pulls her into his web. Asked to carry a backpack to New Orleans using a false passport, she knows it’s wrong, but she will do anything for charismatic Dan. Sam is DEA and just had a drug bust go wrong. He is at the airport when he sees a beautiful woman get robbed of her backpack and shoved to the ground. A beautiful woman. A very handsome DEA agent. A drug mule. Memory loss. Old Mama. Feelings. Under his spell. Dishonesty or honesty. I read this story as part of the Walk the Right Road Collection. Utterly fabulous story and I loved every minute of it. Now for the next one and cannot wait.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

Very Good Writing, Good Story, Frustrating Finale

Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2012

Verified Purchase

This story made this reader angry as the final pages were read, an anger that was fed by frustration that happens when it's obvious there's more to the story and there's no way for the reader to pull the larger story out of the text at hand. This initial installment uses conflict well, portraying several police and federal agents as clearly supporting a marijuana-growing witness, using well-abled and strong-minded individuals in close association with autistic and developmentally-delayed people, depicting a real difference in the ways men and women think, a dichotomy between small, close-knit communities and the larger, busy interaction of modern cities, the communications offered through technical advances versus the small-town friendliness epiotmized in road parties, and even moreso the communication provided through the ages via mediums such as dreams and tarot cards. This story provides a story that the reader anticipates ending with the marijuana grower somehow being vindicated and her associates brought down in some manner involving the intelligent thinking of the federal agent that becomes her significant other; however, that anticipation may or may not be correct, but in this novel, the ending pages provide a conclusion that offers the reader a complete story not yet meeting the reader's anticipated finality, but delivering a conclusion that is probably more in keeping with real world life than the storybook ending would have provided.

A good novel, well worth the money, the book is a complete story that obviously expects subsequent installments that demands an ongoing text in keeping with this anchoring text. This reader prefers books, even those within a series, to truly complete a story line within each novel; otherwise, the reader's natural inclination is to be frustrated for purchasing what is perceived as an incomplete work and feeling frustrated because the publisher uses the innate need to know the final conclusion to leverage future purchases. While this book is well worth the 99 cents offered for Kindle readers, it would perhaps be more preferred to offer a larger work for a slightly higher cost and truly finish the work rather than leave the perceptive reader frustrated and angry because the writing hols the reader hostage and, in order to get the full story, demands that future installments be procured in order to get a complete understanding of the entire situation and characters that almost feel like personal friends in the reader's mind.

2.5 - Interesting spin on love through the ages fails with lack of plot closure

Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2017

Verified Purchase

This is a tough review to write. First, I want to acknowledge that the author tried to a a new take on the "love through the ages" theme. The problem is, the author didn't fully buy into the PNR aspect of the book, so the reader was always left doubting through the first half of the book as to what was going on. This made the book kind of confusing - and that confusion lasted pretty much throughout.

The second issue I had was plot resolution. There was a dirty cop on Sam's team - never identified. I guess because this is a series, the author thought that was OK, but it left a lot of the narrative arc unresolved (as did the lack of resolution with Dan, etc.) so this felt like an incomplete read. Not a traditional cliffie - Sam and Marcie's relationship resolved itself - but the underlying plot was left in an unsatisfying place.

The third issue was editorial - massive amounts of repetition in the PNR sequences - was Marcie too stupid to get it, or was the reader?

I'm on the fence about reading the next one.

Engrossing & Intriguing

Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2020

Verified Purchase

Marcie Hollis has been bewitched by the dark spirit of Dan McKenzie when she literally falls at DEA Agent Sam Carre’s feet. While Sam tries to help Marcie find her way away from the dark and into the light, they know they have to battle their own personal demons, as well as the real monsters in the world.

This is a gripping suspenseful tale filled with intrigue, spirits (good and evil), intense drama and passion. It’s an engrossing story that will keep you enthralled from beginning to end, with its roller coaster of emotions and riveting twists and turns. The characters are well-drawn, and the storyline is a real page turner. I highly recommend this start to what I expect is an amazing series.

Mystical

Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2020

Verified Purchase

Marcie's been raised by her aunt to be an herbalist and natural healer. Her family also has special gifts. But she's been drawn into a world far from her peaceful and comforting forests by a man whose supposed to love her.
He had mentioned a trip to New Orleans that she'd assumed was a romantic getaway for both of them, but just before leaving she learns that she'll be the only one traveling with a passport, ticket, and backpack she's never seen before. Be aware that there is mysticism in this book, hence the rating being only 4 stars. The book is engrossing with lots of intrigue between the powers of good and evil. Great main characters!

It's all about the choices you make...

Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2012

Verified Purchase

This was an engaging and surprising romantic suspense novel. Marcie is one of those characters that haunt a reader long after you finish the book. An intriguing mix of vulnerability and insights confounds those around her particularly those who focus on her quirks and write her off her strengths. Sam was as complex. Take two complicated characters and a series of twists and turns in the spellbinding atmosphere of New Orleans and you have a gripping tale that will make you head out and find everything this skillful author has written. Highly recommended!

The choice is a good read, with plenty of twists to keep you on your toes.
There is the odd grammatical error, but does not detract from the story.
