Both men were damaged in their own way yet it took an insane bear, the Alaskan wilderness and Daisy to keep them together not to mention a vindictive drug lord. The entire story was a suspenseful fight to stay alive. Highly recommended....more
Jamie's parents used to own Sapphire Cay so what better place to retreat to after a tou Reviewed on Hearts On Fire... http://heartsonfirereviews.com/
Jamie's parents used to own Sapphire Cay so what better place to retreat to after a tour in Afghanistan to heal both mind and body. He hits it off well with the new owners Lucas and Dylan and lends a hand working at the resort to pay off his stay. Sapphire Cay specializes in romantic weddings which is how Dylan and Lucas met in book one. When the over the top wedding planner Edward shows up and practically has an aneurysm, Jamie will either kill him or fall for him. I loved this opposites attract story. The story read seamlessly and quickly for having two authors. The background for the island was already established in Follow The Sun so I was pulled right into the real story. Jamie and Edward were both terrific and very well thought out characters. Each were fairly intense but with a soft, gentle hidden side that endeared them to me even more. Edward was every awful cliche that the straight world believes a gay man to be but Ms Scott and Ms Russell made him work in this story. I have to admit that I would have liked to shove that diary where the sun doesn't shine. Jamie was a saint to have found the real man under Edward's prissy working exterior. It was good to see that the tough marine was just an easy going guy looking to find his future instead of being the typified hardcore marine. Lucas and Dylan were good solid secondary characters that we already knew from their story. The sex was well written and the shower scene was hot. I'm not a huge fan of the epilogue wrap up but somehow it worked for me in this story, maybe because it took place off of the Cay. There was no insta-love yet the story was not a slow burn romance either. Personally, I think hat the book can be read as a stand alone but the first book in this series was wonderfully crafted as well. The trademark Scott/Russell HEA was there as usual but with a twist. I'm looking forward to my next visit to Sapphire Cay. A highly recommended romance series, try it. ...more
