Great Read!

The Ups and Downs of Being Round Taste My Soul I was so engaged in this book that when my boyfriend told me that one of the main characters that I had fallen in love with died at the end, I started crying! I was not crying because I was sad about the character dying, I was angry that he had given away the end of a book that I was having so much fun reading! Needless to say, he was just joking, but any book that can evoke that much emotion in me MUST be good. Stone's Revenge is one of those books that you never want to end. I hope that Sylvia finds the time to write the sequel to this. Monica Marie Jones Author of "The Ups and Downs of Being Round" and "Taste My Soul"

Good to the end

This is the third book that I've read by Sylvia Hubbard this year, and I wasn't disappoint. Stone's Revenge is a mystery/romance with William Stone and Abigail McPherson as the two major characters who meet at a very young age. Sylvia chronicles their intertwining lives well through adulthood. This novel flowed from the author like a strong black cup of coffee that was good to the very last drop. She used her background and knowledge of law enforcement throughout the story to weave a believable, engaging read that keep me on the edge of my seat for hours. The story was full of surprises and very well written. I applaud Ms. Hubbard for her continuous efforts to please her fans because she's doing a mighty good job. I couldn't possibly imagine what she'll write next, but I'll be waiting. Barbara Joe-Williams Author of "Dancing with Temptation"

"Revenge is more than sweet; its satisfying!"

Sylvia Hubbard's Stone's Revenge makes getting back at an arch enemy more than an empty confectionary treat but a filling four course meal plus desert and an after dinner drink! William Yared Castro-Chavez Stone is an orphaned outcast due to his grandfather and father's sick, sadistic serial killing rampages. To make matters worse, Enid, his uncle's stepdaughter, accuses him of rape and William is thrown out of the only home he has. While roaming the streets after school, he saw the most beautifully, captivating girl, Abigail McPherson, who is being tormented by her older brother and sister. Fortunately for her, the object they teased her with rolled across the street and ended up in his hands. Before he returned the ball he made Abigail make him a promise to never forget him. She complies. Several days later, fate dealt him another crappy hand: right before his eyes an injured motorist plows down Abigail and both of her siblings. Knowing Abigail's father, Ramsey, has a personal vendetta against his entire family, William leaves Abigail stuck under the car and fleas the scene and the city knowing with Abigail gone he has no reason to stay. Several years later, Stone returns to Davenport for his mother's funeral and copycat murders, similar to the ones his father committed, begin almost as quickly as he arrives. Ramsey McPherson, certain that Stone has inherited "bad genes", sets out to prove that he is the one committing the crimes. While arguing with Ramsey, he learns that Abigail is alive and almost well, the accident caused paralysis and memory loss. With that information, he decides that the best way to get back at Ramsey is through the one thing he holds dear, his beloved daughter. Sylvia's book is dramatically entertaining while touching on the powerful conflict of love and family. Who did it? is obvious around the middle of the novel but the mystery falls back seat to this passion filled love story. William Yared Castro-Chavez Stone is the most memorable character I have ever read. He's been in my dreams a few times ... DON'T TELL MY HUSBAND!

THE MOST THRILLING RIDE I'VE TAKEN!

Sylvia Hubbard's Stone's Revenge is an exhilarating and suspenseful ride for readers. The main character, William Stone, takes you on a journey that explores his tramatic upbringing and the consequences he has to suffer for being the son of a seriel killer, Javier Chavez. Unable to escape the Yared Castro-Chavez family's legacy of being crazed people, William finds himself constantly being harassed by the city's prosecuting attorney, Ramsey McPherson. McPherson was responsible for putting William's father away in prison, and now, desires to make sure the same thing happens to William as a string of murders start to arise in Davenport again. No other men in the world could hate each other as much as William and Ramsey and both find themselves scuffling hard for revenge. SERIOUS REVENGE, that is, until William falls in love with Ramsey's daughter, Abigail. He's loved her since she was a kid, and eventually comes face to face with the most critical decision he'll ever have to make: to embrace his love for Abigail, or continue his revenge for her father. At any cost, Abigail is determined to prove William's innocense, but how can she trust the man who so many believe is guilty? She's torn between the man who gave birth to her, versus the man that she's loved at first sight. Her choice could very well be the end of it all, as Stone's Revenge will have you biting your nails up until the very end. I immensly enjoyed Hubbard's heart throbbing novel and from one writer to the next, I was delighted to see her attempt another genre and succeed well at doing so. Moreso, she stepped out of the box and created a novel that I'm certain many will enjoy. A must read, as Stone's Revenge will go down in my history book as being one of the best novels ever written.
