I read over half the book and just could not read anymore. There is lots of telling, not showing of character motivations and character action and interactions. The main characters act and speak like adolescents not the adults they are purported to be. Story lines begin, such as the one about abortion and then are never spoken of or referenced again. And all the Canadians are presented as rude, sexist jerks - why? The premise has potential, it just needs a massive reworking and rewriting. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. I love this paranormal mystery. It kept me guessing until the very end I sat down to review Divine Intervention and was pulled into the book. Set in the year 2012, join Jasi and her team of psychic investigators to unravel the mystery of a fire and murder. Psychic powers being used to investigate crime. I love the premise and that fact that this is plausible. There is sexual tension going on all over the place between Jasi and Brandon the sexy arson investigator and Ben and Natassia, members of the team. I always enjoy books that leave me turning the page to find out more about the main character. What makes them tick and why they do what they do. Looking forward to the next book in the series. 5 star review rating. Thanks Cheryl for your masterful storytelling. I would recommend this book for readers who enjoy mystery/thrillers with a dash of ESP. Will keep you wanting to read more and pull you into Jasi's story. no reviews | add a review

Tardif has an amazing gift for creating amazing detail in things that would ordinarily be unbelievable to the minds eye. Divine Intervention is Book 1 in the Divine series and it is loaded with futuristic components that I found to be absolutely believable.
Sci Fi, Mystery, Paranormal and Thriller fans will like this book, but this one falls under the “Let No Genre Be Closed” category. ( )
