I received this book from net gallery for an honest review. 

I absolutely loved the book; it had a unique narrative which captivated my attention from the beginning and held it until the end. 

Katie is a secretary and works for Mr Kleggs legal firm but he gives her the creeps. He keeps making sexual advances and she knows there's something shady going on; especially since she found out he records client/lawyer meetings. 

Katie is running an errand when she bumps into Marcus. She's left breathless by the gorgeous man with piercing, glowing, amber eyes. Her body responds to him - probably the aftermath of her dry spell no doubt! Or is it? 

Everything goes downhill when Mr Klegg not only propositions her but forces himself upon her. She kicks him in his jewels and gives him a piece of her mind but before leaving his office, she takes the disc which recorded what just transpired between them. 

Katie takes a vacation to the Blue Ridge Mountains with her friend Angie. Katie directs Angie down a forest path, to a hidden door but how did she know it was there? They settle down for a picnic when a voice startles them: it's Marcus and the surrounding estate including the garden belongs to him. 

As Marcus takes the two ladies on a tour of the manor, Katie has flashbacks - but what does it mean? She's drawn to Marcus, but why does she keep him at a distance? What's holding her back? 

Marcus is mysterious and his eyes literally glow - what is he? What's he hiding? 

There's lots of suspense and mystery surrounding Katie's flashbacks which was exciting yet intriguing. I loved the chemistry between Katie and Marcus: it was intense and gave me goosebumps. I liked Marcus: he was patient yet understanding but never arrogant or pushy. My heart broke for Marcus: when Katie kept pushing him away. I understood her fear but didn't understand why she was taking out the anger she felt towards Nathan on Marcus. I found it amusing when she got nervous and started talking with a Scottish accent. 

The book had a nice steady flow but towards the end it felt rushed. Several characters gave me the creeps but Marcus's team was an intriguing bunch. This book has it all: suspense, mystery, romance, shapeshifters, and ghosts. I loved the fact that there was never a dull moment. I liked Cynthia's writing style and look forward to reading more of her books in the future. 

Eyes of Autumn by Cynthia H. Wise is the second book in the Marcel Experience. I haven't read the first one but it didn't seem like you had to read the first one which was excellent I could just jump into Eyes of Autumn. I was a little nervous to read this at first because I haven't read a book by this author before but the beautiful cover and intriguing book blurb drew me in. Overall, I was pleasantly suprised. It took a few chapters for me to get into Eyes of Autumn but after awhile I was enthralled. The pacing seemed a bit off, it had a slow start but the end seemed a tad rushed. Wise has a truly beautiful writing style, I really got into it especially intense Marcus. I truly enjoyed this blend of genres! Katie has been plagued by supernatural happenings and strange, recurring dreams her entire life. She has done her best to ignore it and works as a secretary at a legal firm. Katie soon finds out her boss isn't only a creepy perv but up to something shady as well. After being attacked by her boss and escaping, she steals something from her boss and goes on a getaway to Blue Ridge Mountain with her friend. But oddly enough, Blue Ridge seems oddly familiar to her and it leads her to encounter Marcus who is not who he seems. Marcus seems to know her though and Katie doesn't seem to remember their past, except in fragments from her dreams A highly recommended read! *This book was provided by the publisher via NetGalley for an honest review.
