The Key Trilogy by Nora Roberts
There are books I return to again and again. This fantastical, suspenseful, romance series about three beautiful, capable, intelligent, strong women is one I have read quite a few times in the last several years. I love trilogies by Nora Roberts – the female protagonists are always capable, fiery women who learn the power of love and discovering the power inside themselves. The reader is drawn into the books, feeling for the characters, human and god alike. During the series you can really feel the growth of the characters, their relationships and how interconnected their lives are. The narrator, Susan Ericksen, does a wonderful job bringing the power of these novels and women to life.
