    About this audiobook

    Seeking refuge, determined to pull her life back together, Sabrina Swann returns to the sleepy Southern island of her childhood summers. The last person she expects to encounter there is Zach Tremayne, the boy who stole her heart when she was a girl. There's a haunted look in his eyes that makes her wonder what kind of man he's become.

    Zach can't forget the horror he saw in his last battle in Afghanistan as a Navy SEAL. Now home on Swann Island, he's surprised to realize he can feel anything again, never mind the sudden surge of desire for this woman from his past.

    And when together they discover danger waiting in the island's shadows, the woman who is desperate for peace and the man who has sworn off war will find that they are willing to do anything, risk everything, to protect a love neither saw coming. . . .

    • 3/5
      While the blurb on the cover said "...will appeal to Nora Roberts fans.", it didn't. I didn't get the same emotional pull and figured out who the bad guy was half-way through the book. I stayed the course and finished the book, but will not rush out to get the next in this series.

      3 Stars

      Suffering in the aftermath of separate traumatic experiences, Sabrina Swann and Zach Tremayne both return to their small home town to find solace in the safe and the familiar. Unfortunately, their newfound peace is shattered and their budding relationship put to the test when a vicious serial killer with a disturbing agenda starts preying on those around them.

      More of a contemporary romance with a SEAL hero than romantic suspense although the serial killer plot adds an extra dimension to the tension.

      Small town romances are usually a favorite of mine, but for some reason, the atmosphere in this one is somewhat stifling. Perhaps it is the undercurrent of racism running throughout and the secrets that various townspeople are concealing, which contributes to this darker vibe.

      Zach and Sabrina are an engaging couple and their romance is steamy albeit predictable. The serial killer is quite perverted and disturbing although it is rather easy to figure out his identity and motivation.

      The biggest problem with the book is the pacing which is choppy with abrupt segues from one POV to another. Moreover, there is a secondary plotline involving Zach's disastrous mission that doesn't mesh well with the rest of the story and ends on a rather anti-climactic note.

      All in all, not too bad for a first book and I will read more by this author.
