**2 stars
This is the second book of a five book installment about a bunch of friends and family that went to a hen night and were given a reading by a psychic. The first book, "The One that Got Away" I remember being much better than this one. I did enjoy this book. It may have been that I was anticipating this one coming out and may have been overly enthusiastic. It was entertaining and I enjoyed the many colorful characters. I am not sure where the hitch was for me. I am still looking forward to the third book in this installment.
Book Jacket Summary:
EASTERN PROMISE is the second novel in this addictive new series, THE HEN NIGHT PROPHECIES, following the fortunes of five different girls, each given their own puzzling prophecy at a friend's hen night...
Priya's prophecy, 'In love, mother knows best...' does not fit her fiercely independent, successful world. She's fed up of her disapproving Hindu family's constant meddling in her love-life. Distrusful of men ever since her betrayal by boss and ex-boyfriend Vic, she throws herself into work. When her new assignment leads her to India to document an ashram high in the hills, Priya hopes to find some much-needed serenity. But with mystery and secrets at its heart, she's soon convinced something sinister is afoot. And with her feelings for attractive tour guide Noah complicating things further, Priya can't help but wonder: is Noah really interested in her, or is he trying to distract her from finding out the truth?
