Publisher Description
Anna Sullivan brings us the first book in her witty new contemporary romance series set off the coast of Maine.
TEMPTATION NEVER TASTED SO SWEET . . .
Maggie Solomon has always been one of Windfall Island's favorite daughters. A beautiful, passionate charter pilot who loves this remote Maine island, Maggie has never cared much for outsiders-until her latest passenger arouses the curiosity of the town . . . and something hot and irresistible in Maggie. With his long, lean looks and razor-sharp wit, the man is temptation itself.
Cop-turned-PI Dexter Keegan is on a covert mission to solve the case that will make his career: uncovering the identity of the Stanhope heir, kidnapped nearly a century ago. No one on this fiercely protective island can know what he's doing, not even the spirited, blue-eyed beauty who infuriates-and excites-Dex. As the desire between them ignites, Maggie becomes the key to the case . . . and the target of an unknown enemy. Now Dex will do anything to protect the woman he's come to love-even risk his own life.

Wyriter
A light and breezy read including the elements of life we all lead- challenge, unknown's/mystery, doubts, determination, failures, humor, and love...of self, family, community, and the beauty of this earth.
Contrived, tortuous
The first chapters were in an online book club, and made this sound like a romantic thriller/adventure. After the first chapter it descended into a very contrived aggression riddled situation. I can only guess this was an attempt to spin out the mystery element. It really didn't work.
Reasonless infighting, aggression between the principle characters, and lack of character development sink this story. I would not recommend.
