Let's try another Random Read, shall we?

So, using Random.org to choose a page in my Amazon Kindle folder, and then using it again to choose a book on said page, I came up with Edge of Shadows by Cege Smith.  I'm going to try to read this book within the next month or so (last time I didn't do so well with this...) as a Random Read, just to break things up a bit.

Here's the synopsis from Goodreads, to give you an idea what it's about.  It's a book I picked up on a free promotion.

Fresh off a marriage that spiraled into a dangerous tailspin, Ellie Coulter doesn’t believe in fate or luck. She’s been surrounded by darkness since her parents’ untimely death, and harbors a secret that never lets her forget that she’s different.

Ellie builds a safe bubble around her life that includes nothing but her coffee shop, her few friends, and her dog. Then a handsome young doctor, David Mitchell, starts to break through her protective shell and Ellie realizes there may be a risk worth taking.


Then one of Ellie’s friends abruptly leaves town; entrusting her home to Ellie’s care. The house has its own mysterious past that draws Ellie into a new darkness. Her ex-husband resurfaces with premonitions of Ellie’s death. And suddenly Ellie’s life is being turned upside down yet again, and even David can’t help her make it right.


Ellie is running out of time. Something old and evil has awakened and it wants Ellie all to itself. She must solve a century-old mystery and keep a grip on her sanity in order to survive.


Now, the thing I'm a bit concerned about is that this is the first in a series.  So, if it's good, that will mean I need to buy some more books.  I'm also a bit concerned because this appears to have more than a little romance in it, and that's been becoming more and more of an issue for me lately.  Still... we'll see.  I must've thought I would like it or I wouldn't have grabbed it, even if it was free, so... Well, we'll all see, won't we?

Coming up sometime soon!
