Amy Lange returns to Rosemary Cottage
on North Carolina's Outer Banks. It was a place she shared with her
brother Ben, but Ben is no longer with her. He drowned in the ocean
near the cottage in a surfing accident.
Curtis, a handsome Coast Guard Officer,
is trying to come to terms with the death of his sister, Gina, run down by an out-of-control speed boat. When he meets Amy, he's
attracted but he tries to keep his distance. He has custody of
Gina's one-year-old daughter, Raine, but Ben was the father. Curtis
fears Amy's parents will try to get custody, and he can't let Raine
go.
I enjoyed this book. In most respects
it's a predictable romance. Curtis and Amy are obviously made for
each other. However, the book has more than romance. Although both
deaths were originally considered accidents, as Amy and Curtis look
into the circumstances, it becomes apparent that something else was
going on. Add to this the excitement of Coast Guard rescues, and it's
hard to put the book down.
Amy and Curtis are lik
able characters,
but Raine steals the show. She is a delightful one-year-old that you
can't help but fall in love with. Else, her surfing aunt, is another
great character. Couple the great characters with the romantic
cottage and the beauty of the outer banks and Rosemary Cottage makes
a great beach read.
I reviewed this book for Booksneeze.
