Book Review:

There is no way for me not to love this story. The glimpses of Parker and Kait that we had in earlier stories, combined with the expectation of a happy ending after lots of hot and steamy moments and their realization that they are made for one another just combine like cocoa and marshmallows: a perfect escape.

Parker is a child who survived horrible abuse, and was fortunate enough to find someone to love him, and show him that the world isn’t all horrible.  Kaitlin, on the other hand, is a healer: she can read auras and use her own skills to heal, calm, support and reassure others.

Drawn to one another, like moths to a flame, these two are the perfect combination of the phrase, together we are better than either one of us alone.  Parker comes to learn that he is not the monster he feared, and with Kaitlin by his side he is near invincible. Steamy and sexy, the connection between Kaitlin and Parker is sure to energize your imagination as it will require a cool drink and a few moments of recovery time before moving on to the next.

You can’t help but enjoy these characters; they could be friends and neighbors, and you will want to have friendships like these: supportive and protective, accepting and fun, the constant ebb and flow of characters that were the focus earlier in the series gives readers a ‘check in moment’, as well as sets a tone that is constant.

The only blot in this story is the overly slimy, smarmy and offensive Richie: ascot wearing, often drunk, always misogynistic Richie.  It was wonderful to see Kaitlin allow her powers to work for the good of all woman-kind and pop his little overinflated ego balloon, and watch him retreat to the sniveling insecure boy that he is.  It was so unexpected and so contrary to her nature and her own personal decisions about her gift that the appearance of her standing up for herself, and by extension every other female in the vicinity was refreshing and helped to firm her own characterization in a way that was wholly welcomed.

Tryst Island is a series that can be read individually, but why would you want to? Each story adds layers to characters met before as well as providing the spotlight emphasis for the characters who serve as the main delight in their own book. Come and meet the gang from Tryst: you will not regret it.

I purchased a copy of the title for my own library with no expectation of positive review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.

Excerpt:

 

She woke up at dawn, though she hadn’t slept very well, with a sudden urge to walk on the beach. Tiptoeing around the room so she wouldn’t wake Jamie, she found shorts, a tee shirt and windbreaker, and then stepped into her flip flops and eased into the hall.The house was quiet. As she came down the stairs the first rays of dawn were lightening the water. She flicked on the coffee maker so it would be ready by the time she got back, or if anyone else woke up, and she opened the slider.She loved the dawn. Such a peaceful time of day. The birds in the trees were just starting to chirp and the breeze was still cool and kissed with the mists of night. She drew in a deep breath as she made her way down the steps to the beach and then followed the shore toward the point. The damp sand was hard beneath her feet, but if she glanced back she saw the little ponds her footsteps made as the indents filled with water. She wasn’t sure why this amused her, but it did.
Little things like that just did.
As she rounded the point, the little island to the northwest came into view, hunkered as it was in trails of fog. It looked lonely and bereft. A shiver walked through her.She shook the feeling off. Like so many others, it made no sense. She’d always been filled with far-fetched notions. Some of them turned out to be something. Others did not. The little island was just an island. The little puddles in the sand were just footprints. There was nothing more to it.As a girl, Kaitlin had trusted all of her instincts, followed every hunch. As a result, she frequently got into trouble, or annoyed her friends. Occasionally the neighbors. Her mother had told her—more than once—to grow up, that she was fanciful and overdramatic. And Kaitlin had believed her. She’d tried very hard to ignore the whispers—despite her bone-deep conviction they were real.**each stop has a unique excerpt – follow along and get a sample of the book NOT available in preview mode!! **
