Synopsis

Emma Turner has spent eight years running, hiding, dodging…limiting her short stays to big cities where she could easily get lost in the crowd. But when she steps onto Tempest Island, something changes. The tiny island speaks to her in ways no other place ever has, and tempts her into breaking the life rules she established long ago to keep herself safe. Instead of taking a couple days off and then moving on, as originally planned, she applies for a job at the Island Surf Shop, despite the risky fact that she’s horribly attracted to the owner. Since his wife’s death a year ago, Mark Phillips has done the best he can to put life back together for himself and his five-year-old daughter, Lily. Now he needs to give more attention to his somewhat neglected business so that he doesn’t have to worry about their future. Emma Turner has all the job qualifications he’s looking for, and he can’t help feeling drawn to the auburn-haired beauty. But Emma is keeping secrets, and they’re about to catch up with her.

About Jana DeLeon

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Jana DeLeon was raised in southwest Louisiana among the bayous and gators. Her hometown is Carlyss, but you probably won't find it on a map. Her family owned a camp located on a bayou just off the Gulf of Mexico that you could only get there by boat. The most important feature was the rope hammock hanging in the shade on a huge deck that stretched out over the water where Jana spent many hours reading books. Jana and her brother spent thousands of hours combing the bayous in a flat-bottom aluminum boat, studying the natural habitat of many birds, nutria and alligators. She would like you to know that no animals were injured during these "studies," but they kept makers of peroxide in business. Jana has never stumbled across a mystery or a ghost like her heroines, but she's still hopeful. She now resides in Dallas, Texas, with her husband and the most spoiled Sheltie in the world.

Goodreads review by Celeste on October 15, 2022

I Wanted to Like This More I feel like a traitor to a good friend, but this book just left me indifferent. No real character development other than the older ladies ( a little bit). The romance felt forced and there was no good explanation for Josef’s obsession. I hope the next one is better!......more

Goodreads review by Katie on May 17, 2023

This book is set up differently from Backrush (#1) which started with the history of the crime and the protagonists long trip back home to Tempest Island. Adrift (#2) starts with the beginning of the crime, then it cuts to present day. It was easy to follow the different time changes and made the st......more
