The Hidden Goddess - M. K. Hobson While the first book in this series, 'Native Star' was a definite page-turner, it was not without its flaws. The sequel, 'The Hidden Goddess' seems to have remedied most of the things that annoyed me about the first one, while retaining the fun, fast pace of the story.

I did wish protagonist Emily got to use her magical powers a bit more in this installment, but I appreciated that both the earth magic and the romance felt less stereotypical here than previously. The evil Aztec cult was still a bit typical and one-dimensional, but I didn't end up minding too much.

If you're looking for light fantasy adventure with a dash of romance, definitely check out these books. I'll be continuing to follow this author.
