Exciting Read with Fascinating Characters
I finished reading Deception Island yesterday and the characters are still firmly embedded in my head.
I think what I loved best about it was that the main characters were truly flawed (though still sympathetic). So often in romance novels, the characters, and especially the heroine, are portrayed as having explainable, excusable flaws. She spent yeras n prsion--but for a crime she didn't commit. He's done terrible things--but not really. In this book, Holly has just been parolled after six years in prison for pulling off cons with her ex-boyfriend who turned state's evidence and took off with the money. Rafe was once a child soldier, with all the traumatic psychologica damage that implies.
Despite this unusual depth of character, the action is fast-paced. When you think things can't possibly get any worse, they do.
Great action, adventure and romance
This is a totally different take on the "kidnapped heroine" - I really liked the plot of a woman who wasn't a typical victim, but was as strong a woman on her own as she was with the broken hero. Great action, and romance. I will be reading more from this author!
Buckle up for one heck of a ride!
Buckle up for one heck of a ride with debut author, Brynn Kelly's Deception Island. This story had it all. Action, adventure, thrills, twists and turns, a haunted hero and a tough as nails heroine. I loved how this author jumped right into the action and it rarely slowed down. Just long enough at times to have a bit of sexual chemistry between the main characters. The wit and traded barbs between these two was entertaining and hot as anything. The heat between them was electric. Although how she squeezed that into the almost non-stop action and danger, is beyond me. It totally worked though and had me on the edge of my seat. I couldn't put this book down. She doesn't pull any punches or water stuff down, though, so if you're squeamish with violence and human atrocities you might want to skip it. For those of stronger stuff, I'd highly recommend.
