Every
time I read a romantic suspense book by Robin Patchen I think that it
is her best yet, and Betrayal of Genius is
no exception. Jacqueline (Jacqui) Beal has developed an artificial
neuron. The possibilities for medical use are many, everything from
treating heart failure to Alzheimer's to helping paraplegics. She
wants to find just the right company to sell the patent license to,
but there are complications, not the least of which is betrayal by
one of her most trusted friends and former business partner. Reid
Cote finds himself falling for Jacqui, but there are too many
complications, the greatest of which is fending off his ex-wife's
attempts to increase the time his little girl is away from him. How
can he focus on that and help Jacqui cope with her problems? In
fleshing out this plot, Patchen addresses trusting God with the hard
things, the things that matter most. At times trust and faith must go
beyond Christian platitudes. Sometimes we must take a stand and
remain steadfast. Jacqui and Reid's stores give Patchen the perfect
opportunity to remind us of this.
As always it has been an extreme pleasure to spend time within a Robin Patchen novel. I am grateful to have received a complementary copy of Betrayal of Genius from the author without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own.
