    BOOK REVIEW-THE VOICE IN MY EAR BY KEN NEWMAN


    Book Description
    Publication Date: August 18, 2014
    Zack Cole awakes in a pool of blood, bleeding from several large caliber holes with no idea how he got there or who shot him. Moments from death, he makes a desperate deal with a mysterious stranger.
    To survive, Zack reluctantly becomes the guardian of Layla, an exotic woman struggling under a terrible curse. The spirit of a powerful, 4,000 year old witch, Layla exists as a living tattoo, unable to survive without a willing host.
    With Layla now his constant companion and voice in his ear, Zack sets out to solve the mystery of his missing time and put his life back together.
    Despite a rocky start, Layla discovers an intimacy and passion with the cocky,
    womanizing Zack that transcends her dreadful curse. Determined that Zack will
    be hers, Layla uses her vast power to help him solve the mysteries surrounding
    his attempted murder, unaware that she and Zack are pawns in a deadly game
    between the Fallen.

    BOOK DESCRIPTION COURTESY OF AMAZON

    I WAS GIVEN A COPY OF THIS BOOK BY THE AUTHOR FOR AN HONEST REVIEW. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

    THE VOICE IN MY EAR has a very well-written story line, with likable and believable characters. This book is a fast read and the snarky dialogue was great. The mystery of what happened to Zack is puzzling and what happened in the missing blocks of memory. When Zack wakes up in the hospital with a strange tattoo, that is the tip of the iceberg of strangeness.  He starts to hear a voice in his ear.  Layla the tattoo and the voice will help Zack unravel what happened to him. I loved this book and will definitely read more of Ken Newman. I recommend you to pick up this book, you will not be disappointed. I give THE VOICE IN MY EAR  4/ 5 stars.
