Stars of Fortune by Nora Roberts

Stars of Fortune (The Guardians Trilogy, #1)

by Nora Roberts

FIRST IN THE GUARDIANS TRILOGY
 
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts comes a trilogy about three couples who join together to create their own family and solve an ancient mystery through the powers of timeless love…
 
Sasha Riggs is a reclusive artist, haunted by dreams and nightmares that she turns into extraordinary paintings. Her visions lead her to the Greek island of Corfu, where five others have been lured to seek the legendary fire star, part of an ancient prophecy. Sasha recognizes them, because she has drawn them: a magician, an archaeologist, a wanderer, a fighter, a loner. All on a quest. All with secrets.
 
Sasha is the one who holds them together—the seer. And in the magician, Bran Killian, she sees a man of immense power and compassion. As Sasha struggles with her rare ability, Bran is there to support her, challenge her, and believe in her.
 
When a dark threat looms, the six must use their combined powers—including trust, unity, and love—to find the fire star and keep the world on course.

There was a fair amount of predictability but overall I enjoyed the ride, closer to 4 star than 3 but more 3.5ish.

Sasha Riggs is an artist with visions, literally, she paints these visions and this has led to a successful career. Now she's drawn to Corfu, with a bundle of sketches of people she believes are important, people she's never met but she's dreamed about, particularly one, Bran Killian an Irish Magician. Four other people are drawn to the island four other people from her sketches. The six of them have to find 3 stars and defeat evil over a trilogy of books.

Now it's Nora Roberts so you know, or you should know that with six people that's three couples and one per book and developing relationships between the group throughout but things aren't always straightforward and easy for each couple and there will be a bumpy road while people deal with their own stuff. I loved Sasha and how she decided to become stronger and not let others just fight for her and how she became a leader and kicked butt when it was necessary.

I enjoyed it.
