Review # 1 was written on 2017-08-23 00:00:00 Janet Kusch This closes out the series. It's not that I didn't love it, cause I did. But...ok, here's the deal. He dumps her harshly and then ten years later he returns expecting to romance her back into his bed. What he didn't bank on was how much her heart was broken. He knew he hurt her. "I did mean to hurt you. And I'd say I did a damn good job of it." Yep, he would have needed an ambulance after making a comment like that. 🚑 She rebuilt herself on the ashes he left. She was stronger, but he does manage to romance himself back in, slowly. As you can tell, I never warmed up to him. But it was still an excellent ending to the series.

Review # 2 was written on 2008-04-23 00:00:00 Keith Bradford While I still liked this book, it was my least favorite of the Three Sisters Island trilogy. I liked the plot as it dealt with resolving the threat to the island and beating the evil. I thought that was done well. What I didn't particularly like about the book was the romance between Mia and Sam. It didn't quite work for me. Mia keeps her heart locked away from Sam for the whole book (with good reason mostly) then at the end, she's suddenly like, okay, I accept you and your love. The abrupt change in her feelings came off a little...weird for me. Their romance just has this rather cold vibe. She sleeps with him, does things with him, but she's constantly saying "I'll never risk my heart again" and saying it's just sex and fun. I would have liked to see Mia soften toward him a little more before the end. The other thing that kept me from really loving the book was Mia herself. I just didn't like her as much as the other characters. Maybe it was her attitude and arrogance...I'm not sure. But at times for me, she was just a character who was there, not one I was actively rooting form But aside from that, still a good book and a nice conclusion to the Three Sisters Island trilogy...which is my favorite of all Nora's trilogies.
