Audio CD Description Setting: Three Sisters Island, coast of New England, present day Sensuality rating: 6 Perennial New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts's new Three SistersIsland trilogy is pure magic! No, I mean really magic. An intriguing combination of The Witches of Eastwick and Sleeping With the Enemy, Dance Upon the Air introduces readers to the idyllic town of Three Sisters Island. Reputedly conjured by a trio of sisters seeking to escape the Salem witch-hunts, the island remains a place of quiet refuge for one and all, including pretty Nell Channing who arrives in town afraid of her own shadow, with few possessions and no past. But the warm, sunny days and cool, windswept nights, as well as the loving concern of new friends--especially hunky sheriff Zack Todd--soon lure skittish Nell into a much-welcome fresh life. Nell's new boss, the captivatingly lovely bookstore owner Mia Devlin (look for Mia's story, hopefully, in the not-too-distant future), wonders from what or whom Nell is running. Mia treats Nell as she would a sister, which isn't too far off the mark, helping Nell discover and explore her inner resources while Zack's romantic attentions bring a rosy glow to Nell's cheeks and to her future. But something wicked this way comes… Will Nell be ready to face and conquer her past? Even with the love and support of Mia, Zack, and Zack's fellow police officer, his peppery, down-to-earth sister Ripley, Nell has the fight of her life--the fight for her life--on her hands. Roberts continues to delight fans and create new believers with her talent and imagination. --Alison Trinkle

Customer Reviews The first of the series ! This book starts the journey of three women , magic and the men they will love. If you love romance and mystery pick up this series and enjoy ! dance upon the air This is the first of Three Sisters Island trilogy by Nora Roberts. I have read some of Nora's novels and didn't think much of her works but this trilogy is her best. This is magic reading indeed. I finish all three books in 3 days.The description of the island, the characters and the feel of the whole book are so vivid. You can feel the wind on your face, smell the soup bubbling in the pot and feel the pain of loneliness in the heroine. A must for those who like romance and magic. More Fun with Witch Lore Dance Upon the Air is Nora first in a trilogy about witches and East Coast island lore. One of the things Nora Roberts does very well is to create her trilogies as we've seen by the Chesapeake Bay trilogy, Faerie Tale trilogy, and now Three Sisters Island trilogy. She grabs the reader within the first few pages and takes you on a fun ride through the lives of three different people who have common threads. No one writes a better trilogy than Nora Roberts does! Dance Upon the Air introduces us to the legend of Three Sisters Island. To escape being persecuted during the Salem Witch-Hunts, three witches (Air, Wind and Earth) use their magic to have part of the land break off and become an island haven where they can be safe and free. Each goes a different way, and the story is of their offspring finding their way back to the island. Dance Upon the Air focuses on Air, as you can probably tell by the title. Air's descendent is Nell Channing, a woman who fakes her own death to leave an abusive, wealthy husband. After her death, she changes her identity and becomes Nell. Nell has been running for almost a year when she comes to Three Sisters Island and finally finds a place she wants to call home. She takes a job in the Book Café working for Mia Devlin, a powerful witch with past demons of her own. The two become fast friends. When Nell realizes she too has powers, Mia becomes her mentor and her life really changes from anything she's ever experienced. This would be a fun book with whimsical stories of friends helping each other heal their wounds, but Ms. Roberts has other ideas to add to the mix. Enter Zack Todd, the local hunky sheriff who starts pecking away at the wall Nell has built around her. Ah yes, a bit of romance to spice things up a bit! And to keep things just a little off balance, she adds Ripley Todd, Zack's sister and Three Sisters Island deputy. Ripley used to practice her witchcraft but for some reason she has given it up. Ms. Roberts doesn't enlighten us as to the reason, only lets us enjoy the tough, opinionated, obstinate Rip, as she's known. The interchanges between Ripley and Mia are filled with fireworks, animosity and tons of other emotions that add pure enjoyment to your reading. Dance Upon the Air is somewhat predictable but when you're engrossed in it, you really won't care about that fact. It's an interesting, romantic tale of how a young woman is able to leave a miserable life and strike out on her own and become happy. It's a story of friendship and the power of those types of bonds. It's a romance that will have you sigh. It's definitely worth the price of a new paperback! Heaven and Earth is the next in this trilogy - see my review on that one!
