3 of 5 stars
I have not read the other
books in this series, but I was able to delve into this story and not feel
lost. Liam Twethewey has inherited Wyndcliff Hall in Pevlyn, Cornwall, and he
plans to make the estate profitable by following his great uncle's plan and develop
the china clay pits. What he doesn't expect is to run into a sinister plot
revolving around shipwrecks in his cove. He also didn't expect to meet blonde
beauty Evelyn Bray, the granddaughter of the current stewart. Evelyn
experiences an undeniable attraction when she meets Liam, but never expects her
grandfather to oppose the match.
This story had all the
elements for a suspenseful and exciting story. While the plot involving the
shipwrecks and the rescue of a young woman and her daughter kept my interest,
the budding romance between Liam and Evelyn fell flat for me. There was not
enough interactions or dialogue between them to convey their growing feelings
for each other. While I enjoy a slow build up of romance, this story had
virtually none before the final chapters. The book would easily have been 4
stars if the romance between Liam and Evelyn had been more compelling.
I voluntarily read the
advanced reader copy and all opinions are my own.
