Love Lost and Found.
What do a Marine who
received a “Dear John” letter and a journalist who dumped her cheating fiancé
have in common? Nothing, outside of being heartbroken over lost love. But when
they accidentally end up next to each other jetting to a Caribbean paradise,
they do share one thing: mutual attraction. Friendship between Tara Mason and Sergeant
Mick Peterson grows quickly through a few dates on St. Thomas. An argument
coupled with a blunder strand them on a small deserted Caribbean island.
In the midst of nothing but sand and water, possible starvation leading to death, old wounds heal. While working together to survive, Mick and Tara fall in love. Love found in their own private Eden is soon challenged in life-threatening ways when they return to the mainland. Long separations, danger and loneliness test their devotion. Is the love they’ve found strong enough to withstand what life throws at them?

Catrina's Review:
In the spirit of full disclosure I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Christopher
"Mick" Petersen is an absolute gentleman, and a Marine. What more
could a girl ask for? How about a playful side to go with his serious soldier
side? Mick is the total package! I bonded with him from the first moment I met
him.
Tara
Mason is easy to bond with too. She and Mick first meet when she's trying to
make the best out of a tough situation. She's strong, yet vulnerable like a good
heroine should be. She doesn't waste time waiting for others to rescue her. She
helps however she can.
I
adored the "bet my story is worse than yours" game that Mick and Tara
played upon their first meeting, during the plane ride.
Mick
and Tara's playful banter throughout the story is full of "Aww"
moments. The chemistry between them is palpable, and grows stronger with each
scene.
I especially
enjoyed the authenticity Ben Tanner mixed in to the Marine assignment details.
My Father, and my best friend are Marines, so I always have a soft spot for
Marine stories.
Thank you so much for the glowing review. You really made my day. We are delighted you liked the book so much. Thank you for your time, as well.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jean, thank you for the glowing review. I am glad you appreciated the realism we incorporated into the story.
