Heart Sight by Robin D. Owens – Review & Giveaway
Amazon / B&N / Kobo / BAM / Book Depository
Description:
Journey back to the planet Celta with award-winning author Robin D. Owens in this novel about shadowed enemies and unimaginable psi power.
Muin “Vinni” T’Vine has been the prophet of Celta since he was six years old. A unique and lonely child, his strong psi power made most people wary of him. But now that he’s older, he’s ready to marry and protect the girl he’s known was his HeartMate for years.
Avellana isn’t as fragile as Vinni believes…nor as compliant. She fights to be considered Vinni’s equal and a strong member of her Family and community. Both of them have kept Avellana’s main power secret for over a decade.
But rumors of her strange psi talent are spreading, and Vinni is experiencing premonitions of danger to Avellana—even from the highest people of the land. When the whispers become threats, Vinni and Avellana must discover and defeat their secret enemies before they can finally claim happiness together.
Review:
Heart Sight by Robin D. Owens is the 15th book in her wonderful Celta series. The Celta series takes place in a futuristic world, filled with magic, animal familiars, telepathy and romance.
We meet our hero, Vinni (Muin) T’Vine early on when, when he visits his heartmate, Avelanna (our heroine), whom he has sent away to protect her from possible danger. Vinni is the prophet of Celta (since he was a child), and forsees attempts on Avellana’s life, as the big T’Vine family doesn’t want him to bond with his heartmate. Seems Avellana has a power that people do not like, and they feel she isn’t worthy of the T’Vine family. Vinni has waited years for Avellana to be old enough to for Avellana to be older, and to Heartbond with her; but now he stills sees these visions, and wants to her stay away. Avellana is now grown up, and misses her home, and being able to use her amazing mural creations. She stands up to Vinni, and will not leave again; her home is where she belongs, and tells him she will work together with him to fight their enemies.
What follows is an exciting, and sweet romantic tale of two people who have known each other since childhood, and knew they were destined to be mates. The threat is real though, but Vinni will do all he can to get help to protect Avellana, as they get closer to finalizing their bond. Another nice element to the tense situation is Avellana’s partnership on a new project for specialized made to order homes, in another territory, which will help Avellana become more independent financially. I loved the two of them together, but I loved their fams (Rhys, Avellana’s the cat & Flora, Vinni’s bunny), who talk telepathically, as well as help them. So much fun.
Once again, Robin D. Owens gives us another wonderful addition to this series. Heart Sight was a fun, romantic story with a tense and suspenseful mystery. If you enjoy romances in a fun fantasy magic world, you should be reading this series..

Barb, thanks so much for the wonderful review! WHEW! It was a difficult book to write because I felt the weight of reader expectations, so I’m glad you feel I pulled it off!
No surprise here, you always give us what we have come to expect from you. ?
Love these books, have read them since the beginning. A lot of people have been waiting for this particular story to happen. Mine is on the way in the mail… should be here either today or Monday at the latest.
Great review, Barb… looking forward to another wonderful read Robin.
Wonderful review, thanks Barb. Congratulations to Robin on the new release. !
Something new to me! A wonderful way to start the New Year. Please count me in.
Thank you!
Great review, the Celta series never disappoints. Vinni & Avellana’s story is one story we have looked forward to reading! ❤️
Unfortunately, I can’t afford to buy the book, so I have my name on a list of “Holds” at my local library, at least I’m #3 on the list (I WISH these people read as fast as I do). I DO however, OWN most of the rest of the books in the Celta series (bought while I was still able to work years ago) and have read them all at least 3 times! I cannot WAIT to read all about Vinni and Avelana! I am SO jealous of those of you who have already spent another fascinating read on Celta!
Wow, a WAITING LIST at the library. I’m gobsmacked. Thank you for asking your library to order it. The prices WILL be coming down on new work in the future.
Sounds great .Enter me please.Thank you!

Great review, Barb. The Celta series has always been one of my favorites. Please enter me to the giveaway.
Thank you for entering!
I really enjoyed the book too. It’s been quite a journey from Heart Mate to here. Now we’re dealing with the second generation and it looks like their flair is even stronger than their parents’. I’ve always loved the fams. I enjoy reading these out loud to my boyfriend. He really likes the way I do the fams’ voices. Thanks for the positive review, I wish everyone read and appreciated Robin’s stories of Celta.
Oh, that sounds wonderful, the reading aloud!
