Alluring, but above all entertaining. Love’s Journey is the second release in the Love’s Illusion series by Jolene Cazzola. Some novels keep you guessing, some make you care deeply about the characters, once in a while a book comes along that delivers on both counts. With intriguing sub currents Cazzola creates characters’ who have lives of their own, who don’t exist simply at the convenience of the plot and always feel wholly congruent with her seventies Chicago setting which she captures in subtly nuanced dialogue and acerbic observation. At the center of her narrative is the repartee between Jackie and Michael. Suffice to say they have obstacles to overcome. Most romance novels begin as a given; we know from the first chapter who will be together when the last page is turned, but Cazzola keeps us guessing. Taking the form and feel of a romantic thriller she makes us care about her protagonists and because we can’t help liking them their relationship transcends all of the plots twist and turns to take on an importance of its own.
A multi layered and intelligent novel which will quickly draw you in, Love’s Journey proves a welcome addition to the Love’s Illusion series. Raising the bar for future releases in Jolene Cazzola’s continuing saga, it is highly recommended.
