Between The Pages - The Rose Stone

The Rose Stone 
L.A Kelley 
May 2022 

Artist Jessica Stone has a death sentence, an inoperable brain tumor. As her health declines, Jess is compelled to paint the captivating image of a mythical realm protected by a crystal called the Rose Stone. A mysterious crimson glow infuses the canvas, and Jess wakes in the Commonwealth of the Rose. She meets Griffin, a warrior engaged in a struggle with the malevolent darkling, who seeks to control the power of the Rose Stone. With Griffin’s help, Jess evades the darkling’s assassins. Then the hallucination vanishes, and she discovers her connection to the Rose Stone may run deeper than mere illusion. 

Torn between two worlds, Jess battles the darkling in one and a tumor in the other while struggling to determine her true reality. Is the Rose Stone a dream, a hallucination, or a summons to something greater? 

Between The Pages 
This fantasy fairytale romance was a compelling read from beginning to end. The storyline clutches the reader and holds on tight. Jess is a captivating heroine. She has a terminal brain tumor and finds comfort in painting. When she is transported to another world, she believes everything is a hallucination. The author is a master storyteller who draws you into the home of the Commonwealth of the Rose. Jess meets Griffin, who is an irresistible hero. Their chemistry is undeniable, and their lives were linked well before their first encounter. The cast is engaging, and the action is intense. Each time Jess was pulled back to her time, I couldn’t wait for her to return to the Commonwealth. I couldn’t put this book down and I would brag about the story more, but I don’t want to spoil the read. I highly recommend diving into this engrossing world of the Rose Stone.
