Do you love romantic suspense books? I sure do and this series is one of my favorites. Throw in a marriage of convenience and forced proximity, and you have a winning combination. This author really knows how to pack a punch with the suspense while building a romantic tension too. From beginning to end this story was exciting and I had a hard time pulling myself away when life called.
Isla is so strong. So courageous. I don't think I could have survived the way she did. I loved her caring and artistic side. Isla also had fantastic instincts and such a drive to protect and care for not only herself but others around her. The trauma and emotional battles she faced were immense and I was rooting for her safety, health and healing with my whole heart.
I loved traveling through countries and across continents. I love the Pressley-Coombes family. I loved that both Ben and Isla were dealing with a bit of mystery and it all ended to dramatically. It was so good.
This is the fourth book in this series. I don't think you have to read them in order but I would recommend that you do. It's just more fun that way.
Content: peril, violence. Christian elements (talk of God, praying), kissing.
