Happy Monday and Happy Birthday to ME!๐๐๐ฅ
Today I am a year older and a year wiser! I am also excited to share with you my review for this intriguing romantic suspense book by actress and author meg Tilly!๐
This was another engaging group read with my fave girls the BOOK BESTIES๐
My Thoughts
A sizzling, steamy, suspenseful romance that will make you smile,swoon, and sweat!๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Solace:is a feeling of comfort that makes you feel less sad.
Solace Island is the perfect place to find comfort and the stremgth to begin again… The perfect name for the beautiful setting of this book about second chances and new beginnings…. this was a well-done romantic suspense that leans more towards romance than suspense…. I read both genres and thoroughly enjoyed it, but I think it will appeal more to a true romance reader than a suspense/thriller/mystery reader…. there is some definite sizzle in this book!
Maggieโs jerk of an X fiancรฉ dumped her the day before the wedding… Hurt and angry Maggie heads two Solace Island with her sister eve to lick her wounds…. while she is there she meets Luke her handsome island neighbor, who is selling bread at the local Saturday market… and bread has never look so good before! The two of them spark up a romance, but what is Lucques hiding? After somebody tries to hurt Maggie the truth comes out… but who is trying to hurt Maggie? And why? Can Luke stop them? And will this ruin things between the lovebirds? You will need to read this book to find that out!
A quick captivating story that kept me engaged throughout… The setting of the island in the Pacific Northwest was so ideal, it was somewhere I would love to go to lick my own wounds! Loved the bond between the sisters, they were so there for each other it was so refreshing after reading so many sister psychological thrillers lately…. The chemistry between Lucques and Maggie was pretty high-octane, if this book were a movie it would be rated R for sexual content๐ณ My review would not be complete if I did not mention the bread again and all the yummy goodies, This book definitely made me hungry ๐
Recommend to Fanzz of Romance with a good well done dose of suspense!
*** A huge thank you to Berkley for my copy of this book ***
About the Book
A contemporary novel with a strong suspense element from Oscar-nominated actress Meg Tilly set on a peaceful island village in the Pacific Northwest.
Dumped on the eve of her wedding and looking for a quiet place to lick her emotional wounds, Maggie Harris joins her sister on Solace Island, where she hopes to recover from the stunning betrayal. At first, Maggie resists Eve’s impassioned argument about relocating permanently so the sisters can open their own local bakery. What she definitely doesn’t need on her road to recovery are Eve’s efforts to fix her up with their mysterious and alluring neighbor, Luke Benson–even if he is incredibly handsome and desirable.ย
Just as Maggie starts to get comfortable in her new surroundings, a car tries to run her down in the middle of the street. If it weren’t for Luke’s extremely quick reflexes, Maggie could have been killed, leading her to wonder just who exactly Luke Benson really is…
Luke thought he’d left the violence ofย the high risk security world behind. But he can’t stand by while Maggie’s life is threatened. Luke will do anything to keep her safe–even moving Maggie and her sister into his house with its state-of-the-art security features. But with the secrets between them and an unknown threat stalking her heels, Luke will have to think fast to prove to Maggie that she can trust him with her life–and with her heart.ย
