Recommended Read and a Five Rating from TwoLips Reviews
Departed Acts by Katherine Smith is the best of both romance and suspense fiction. Nothing brings a good romance together like a deadly stalker inserting himself into the characters lives to make them realize what they have been missing. Ms. Smith is a master at building plot twist and subplots that leave you constantly guessing what will come next. If you are looking for a good romance with that extra punch don’t miss picking up a copy of Departed Acts.

Review of: Under The Pale Moonlight by Katherine Smith By: Award winning author, Diane Davis White "Katherine Smith has written a lovely romance full of tenderness. Arthur, a hero with a physical deformity is a gentle giant, and all male. He is chased by the aristocratic young Alicia who won’t take no for an answer. Though Arthur has believed her too far above his reach, he cannot deny her romantic advances, for his blood boils hot as any man, despite his maimed foot. I love the way Ms. Smith uses her characters to drive the story forward. Excellent prose!"

Echoes Of Terror by Katherine Smith

features the November Girls and The Tree by Katherine Smith

Available for purchase at Amazon

Eppies award finalist Katherine Smith gives us two entries in this collection. I have to say, hers are my favorites. Not only does she tell a good story; she does so in a crisp volley of words that are almost poetic in their imagery. November Girls evokes one's senses in full autumnal flavor. With but a few descriptive phrases, she puts the reader right into the season—a perfect one for this tale. Charlie isn't looking for company when she steps out of the cold rain into an inviting café. All she really wants is something to warm her on the way home. Still, she can't help but be moved when Megan Watson tentatively approaches her table. The young woman is so forlorn, so obviously lonely, so unremarkable, that Charlie finds herself not just talking to her, but feeling sympathy for her as well. We're not that different, Megan tells her. But it isn't until the wispy girl disappears into the woods that Charlie realizes just how true that statement is.
Smith's The Tree is a deep tale of obsession and tragedy. How many people have died under the oak tree on Jack's newly inherited, dilapidated property? And who is at fault for those deaths? Jack finds himself answering those questions in a way he hadn't ever anticipated.

All in all, I found this book hard to put down. While some of the stories are real gems, all of them produce the desired effect: A sense of dread, surprise, and a morbid fascination with what is to come. Echoes of Terror is certainly worth a few evenings' time—especially with the lights turned low, preferably in the midst of a raging thunderstorm.—Reviewed by T.L. Trevaskis
