This sort of deep-seated grief and despair is likely familiar to anyone who has lost a loved one, though perhaps not the extreme state of it that Beth is living in. She has been living a rather ghostlike existence since then, simply going through the motions of daily life while remaining dead and unfeeling to everything around her. All in all a rather satisfying book.īeth is mourning the deaths of her husband and son who died in a boating accident about a year previously. There's a bad guy to fight, and he gives rise to some worrying moments, but ultimately is handled with moderate ease and the happy couple swim off into the sunset at the end. Their story is told with a good deal of sexual tension that leads to some steamy sexy times, but also with a large dose humor that will often have you laughing out loud. Also included is a gorgeous, alpha hero who's loving and protective, but isn't an ass about it-at least for the most part. There's a strong heroine who isn't terribly inclined to sit back and wait to be rescued or to let someone else fight her battles, but who also has issues. This second installment in the Orkney Selkies series has many of Rosanna Leo's signature elements. Warning: This review contains possible mild spoilers, though I have endeavored to keep my comments with the realm of outcomes that can be reasonably expected given the genre.
