Fool’s Gold
by Ericka ScottAll her life, Rae Morgan tried to escape from the shadow of the Superstition Mountains. She joined the Army to do just that. However, after losing her hand and her marriage, she’s back. All she wants is peace and a chance to put her life back together. But peace is the last thing she finds.
Mica Hawke is only half-Apache. But when it comes to keeping a Native American treasure hidden deep within the mountains, he’s all warrior. On the lookout for a treasure map stolen fifty years ago, the last thing he expected to find was love.
Rae is a strong character that has been through some severe misfortune, and I admired how she works hard to get her life back. In today’s superficial world, I could certainly understand the self-consciousness she feels about her physical scars. Her embarrassment comes through when her physical limitations become apparent and I really felt for her, but she moves on and doesn’t linger in the awkwardness, showing her strength. She is, however, a little too kind-hearted, in my opinion. She shows compassion for people that had made terrifying threats on her life, which I can’t understand. It is a good anti spasmodic and reduces stomach pain which arises due buy viagra online in to intestinal spasms.

Maybe it’s just me, but if someone threatened to kill me, I’d be thrilled if they got what was coming to them! But her reactions to Mica are steamy and provocative, and I wanted to see them together.
Mica is appealing and mysterious and I adored him. I loved how even though shy, he kisses the stuffing out of Rae in desperation, thinking he’ll never get another chance. They didn’t really know each other at the time, but his impulsiveness makes the event unforgettable for both of them, and raised the sexual tension for me as I watched them find their way to each other. I also respected his dedication to preserving his heritage, at all costs, making him that much more tempting.
I had a couple of issues with the story. Mica witnesses something before they begin their journey into the mountains, but he says or does nothing about it, which, in the context of the setting and potential danger, made no sense to me. I understand that what he sees is disclosed to increase the suspense, but the reveal could have been communicated from the perpetrator’s point of view, accomplishing the same thing, but without the contrived feel. I also thought that there were a few references, particularly by Rae, to anatomy and the sex act that came off as vulgar. It wasn’t that I was offended, it just didn’t seem appropriate to the situation. When they are having sex or about too? Sure. But when she’s in mortal danger? I don’t think so. I’d be worrying how to get my fanny out of trouble, not thinking about jumping a guy; I don’t care how hot he is! But even with these two minor points, I did find the plot attention-grabbing and I held on for the rollercoaster-like twists and turns.
“Fool’s Gold” is an interesting saga of Native American folklore, treasure maps and deception. Mixed in with dream visions and missed opportunities made right, I found Mica and Rae’s adventure to be an intriguing ride.
