A Lovely Drop

Once read a review will be written via Smashbomb and link posted in comments
A woman who claims to do the impossible...
Andrea Grace comes from a long line of women who can do the impossible: They can eavesdrop on the past. But ever since her mother's suspicious death, Andrea has led a half-life, guarding herself from those who would kill to get their hands on her. From heads of states to the most violent criminals craving what she has to offer, every drop she makes puts her at risk.
But one fateful night, Andrea decides to anonymously help authorities solve a murder, a particularly horrendous one, and she gets a taste of what it feels like to use her powers for good. And she's hooked. She continues solving crimes with no one the wiser and does so for years until one single mistake gets her caught. And what does she do to get out of the bind she finds herself in? She tells the ludicrous, inconceivable truth.
...meets a man who believes her.
Special Agent Sebastian Strand is almost desperate enough to believe the girl's claim that she can see through the veil of time. Almost. But when he tests the defiant redhead and discovers her gift seems as real as the resentment she wears like a bulletproof vest, he asks for her help to stop a terrorist.
Now, the only element Andrea's been able to control her whole life is the only thing she needs more of as she races against time with an FBI agent hell-bent on saving the world. But will she be too late to save the embittered man's life? Or will she lose her own life, not to mention her heart, before time runs out?
I love Darynda and I really enjoyed this novella! The idea behind it is brilliant and I’m hoping we get some more. I was also a little bit disappointed as it kinda lacked something I can’t put my finger on. Overall a good novella

Kyron needs an omega to get him pregnant, ASAP. Tolly needs money ti keep a roof over his and his fathers heads. Perfect solution? Kyron pays Tolly to give him a son, so he can inherit the vineyard as is written in the will, and then part ways. But the longer they spent together, the more they think that neither will be able to walk away.
Kyron had a bad experience with an omega, and he doesn't WANT one, but he NEEDS one, else he will lose everything. Tolly has also had a negative experience with alphas. The animosity between them is so heavy in the beginning, you can almost taste it. But that melts as time goes on and it was so wonderful watching the ice thaw around both their hearts.
I LOVED not being able to put all the clues together as to the who was wrecking everything for Kyron. LOVED that. Got it totally wrong so well played there, Ms Sue! The WHY as well threw me!
The clues are there, people, they really are, as to what might happen and I was not putting them together fast enough, nor correctly. I loved the references to the history of this world, and the people in it, and what happened before. I loved that for some random reason Tolly is the way forward for these people. I am curious as to whether this will be a series, and I might have missed that announcement, somehow, but I feel there is more to come from this world and the people in it.
I didn't find it overly explicit, but I liked that it wasn't. It's more about the falling for each other, what happens to the vineyard, and the missing pieces of their history that matter here.
And then that surprise! *Enough said!*
5 full and shiny stars, here's hoping for more!
