Jared has had dreams of is perfect match for most of his life. They started when she was ten and continued until he met Sara. He has loved his dream girl since that first dream.
Sara isn't sure she believes in all the destiny crap Jared tells her about. He dreamed of her? Really? Only time will spell out these two characters destiny.
I thoroughly loved this book. It did seem to be drawn out just a little and got really sluggish about 3/4 of the way through. I persevered and finished and I admit it was a very likable book. I loved Sara's sweet innocent nature and Jared's loving nature. Jared did tend to run a little hot and cold, but when he was hot, he was definitely hot. I also loved that part of the book was set in Shreveport. The other part of the time was spent in Arizona. The secondary characters were wonderful and Steve provided his own entertainment.
Now, all the good qualities finished, let's start on the cons. The book started out being very amateurish with horrible dialogue. Jared is a doctor so he's at least in his late 20s when in the book he speaks and behaves as if he's sixteen. During the middle of the book the writing progresses to a wonderful writer tell a wonderful, balanced book. That last third of the book was in a completely different writing styles with a point of view from other characters. This had not been in the book up until this point. Still, give this book a shot. It will definitely give you something to read and a new hero to love.

Glad you liked it. The character Jared is developed further in a second book which will be out soon. Both Blood of the Rainbow and Blood of the Rainbow II are prequels to the A Vested Interest series of books written by Shelia and myself. Jared appears briefly in a revised book 1 and re-appears in book 2 of the series. He comes back to take a full part in the series from book 6 - 'Regret and Retribution'. Donna, mentioned briefly in Blood of the Rainbow, is a principle character throughout.

Almost a year later and we've given the book a new look and title. It's now 'Raging Storm' (the name of Jared's band) and is the first of three books. The second, Roses and Regret was released in December 2013 and the third, Choice and Change, will be released any time now.
