"Cloudy Rainbow" by Debbie De Louise - IHIBRP 4-Star Book Review


A Sound Romantic Tale Influenced By The Supernatural!

Overview: Dulcie Mills, who’s unable to get over her fiancée’s death and facing the impending loss of her 15-year-old cat, escapes to a virtual world when pressures become too great. But, when Dulcie becomes attracted to an online stranger, and a clairvoyant offers predictions regarding her dead fiancée, history begins to repeat itself in ways that are both promising and terrifying.

The title of Debbie De Louise’s novel is oddly deceiving since “Cloudy Rainbow” sounds more like a children’s story than a contemporary romance thriller. Additionally, the plotline starts off with a bit too much saccharine as a young woman mourns her deceased lover and finds solace in her elderly feline companion.

Fortunately, as Cloudy Rainbow” continues, the pace of this story eventually picks up and turns tense and suspenseful as lead-character, Dulcie, chooses to spend a fateful weekend away at a work conference with her handsome and recently-divorced boss, Paul. Adding a sense of intrigue and urgency to this getaway, are dire predictions from a clairvoyant warning Dulcie that this particular weekend will be the most important time of her life.

The author’s injection of visions, dream therapy, predictions about the future, PTSD flashbacks, soul transfer, and reincarnation into her plotline, succeeds in livening things up considerably. De Louise’s foreshadowing skills prove to be the meat of this story, pulling readers through a tragic but familiar romance scenario with familiar characters and a cat-centric heroine, into a remarkable supernatural romance suspense thriller.

Overall, “Cloudy Rainbow” is a sound romantic tale with supernatural influences. Although it takes a while to pad through Dulcie’s endless musings about her former lover, Frank, and her relationship with her beloved cat, Floppy, De Louise’s work significantly picks up as predictions pan out and begin to affect Dulcie’s life in strange and terrifying ways.

Considering the adult themes and sexual situations contained in this novel, I recommend this paranormal suspense thriller for romantics and fans of the occult ages 17 and up.
