Product Description
For Fox, Caleb, Gage and the other residents of Hawkins Hollow, the number seven portends doom - ever since, as boys, they freed a demon trapped for centuries when their blood spilled upon The Pagan Stone?
Their innocent bonding ritual led to seven days of madness, every seven years. And now, as the dreaded seventh month looms before them, the men can feel the storm brewing. Already they are plagued by visions of death and destruction. But this year, they are better prepared, joined in their battle by three women who have come to The Hollow. Layla, Quinn, and Cybil are somehow connected to the demon, just as the men are connected to the force that trapped it.
Since that day at The Pagan Stone, town lawyer Fox has been able to see into others? minds, a talent he shares with Layla. He must earn her trust, because their link will help fight the darkness that threatens to engulf the town. But Layla is having trouble coming to terms with her newfound ability - and this intimate connection to Fox. She knows that once she opens her mind, she?ll have no defenses against the desire that threatens to consume them both?

 Well.... July 8, 2008
...where to start? As a longtime Nora Robert's fan, I have been disappointed in the steady decline of the books she has been putting out. I did read Blood Brothers, and while I found it ridiculous, I am compelled to finish a series and so I read The Hollow. I wouldn't have thought it could be worse that Blood Brothers, but wow was I wrong. To begin with Layla is a simpering idiot, and that's being kind. More importantly, the diaglogue. I'm not even sure that schmaltzy is a real word, but it fits perfectly here. Who talks like that? I don't know anybody as "in tune" with themselves and each other as these people.
This is all supposing you're ok with the theme of the series, being demons and guardians and the like. I'm ok with a little "pschic" story line here and there, but we're entering science fiction here.
I'm ashamed to say that I will be reading the 3rd book when it's available, and I can only hope that it will be slightly less cheesey than the others.
Intense July 6, 2008
This book picked up right where the other left off. I could not wait to find out what would happen on the next page. Really looking forward to the last book in this series.
Definately a page turner.
 better than the first July 6, 2008
Blood Brothers was OKAY, the Hollow was BETTER, I have my fingers crossed that the Pagan Stone will be the BEST.
Getting ready for the end July 5, 2008
This book was the usual fast and interesting read that one expects from Nora Roberts. One sort of falls into the story while still sort of wishing she could get on with it in the back of one's mind. I realize that three books are needed to complete the romantic parts of the story, but there could have been more progress with getting after the evil. In the end, I didn't care. I'm just always happy to have a new Roberts to read!
Not Great, but it's still Roberts July 4, 2008
4 Stars because it was published in paperback. I would have been far less generous if I'd been compelled to purchase a hardcover just because it has Nora's name on it.
Paranormal has never been my favorite genre, however Nora Roberts has always handled it well. What I enjoy most about her stories are the relationships - between guy friends, family, neighbors, community. These are the relationships we so often forget to look at when trying to concentrate on romance and I believe Roberts does a lovely job of reminding all of us.
That being said, this trilogy is definitely not my favorite. The story just lacks oomph! (for want of a better word). I will say it's worth the price of a paperback and a lazy afternoon read!
