This book has lots of secrets, mystery, action and hot chemistry. The story was amazing, Elijah and Evangeline story is not easy for what they have both gone through. Loved it!
I have been waiting for this tortured hero’s story and once again this brilliant author did not disappoint! Her writing is amazing. Her characters are intriguing and unique. This storyline is fantastically complex and woven to utter perfection.
E is every bit the perfectly damaged pirate badass I was hoping for. Up to this point in the series he’s been a supporting character. I have been excited to learn about his past and meet the heroine capable of bringing this gentle giant to his knees. Evangeline is the catalyst for so much change in him. Can these two broken people find the comfort and love they both deserve? Can E redeem and forgive himself? Gah this story had me on the edge of my seat second guessing until the very end. So good!
I need more. Just when I think this series can’t possibly get any better, BOOM is blows my mind!
This series continues to rock my world. Elijah and Eva’s story is intense, jaw dropping, roller coaster ride of emotions that you don’t want to get off of. Their pasts keep coming back to haunt them and for Elijah it’s hitting home hard and he needs to let Eva in to help him past it. Eva is trying to deal with what happened to her and trusting someone is not easy, but they both need to trust in what they could have if they let it happen. I’m bummed this series is coming to an end soon, this author has a way with words and making you really feel when reading her stories. Loved this book, and I received a copy of this book.
The Inland Seas Series has me hooked. Romance on the Great Lakes with modern-day pirates and the women who crack their exterior makes for some very suspenseful storylines. Anchor Point is Elijah’s story and it is an emotional heartbreaker full of suspense that will rip you apart at the seams, so be prepared.
Elijah’s past and the reasons for his current hardness broke my heart. No one should endure the loss and pain that he has. Even though his life has turned him into a “bad man,” he still has a soft spot and I felt that ultimately, he just wants justice for those who are wronged and is trying to save the world, one person at a time.
Evangeline has found herself in a precarious situation and close to death. Her soft pleading hits E in his soft spot and he risks it all to save her. Eva also does her best to bring Elijah out of the abyss he frequents to save him too.
E and Eva are a very special couple who slowly build a connection and become each other’s anchor point. I totally fell in love with this couple. Just like all the other books in this series, all the characters from the other books are included, which helps to tie each book together. The books follow each other sequentially so it is best to read them in order. Anchor Point is one of my favourites of the Inland Seas Series.
This is the fourth book of the Inland Sea series. Each book in this series is great. Anchor Point is the story of Elijah and Eva. It is full of angst and will keep you on the edge of your seat. Eva and Elijah both have their own demons to deal with. Read the book to find out what happens between Elijah and Eva. Also, find out what is happening with the rest of the crew.
Get yours today!! You won’t be disappointed.
Anchor Point is book four in The Inland Sea series and in this book we get Elijah and Eva’s intense story. I absolutely loved their story and how after everything they have both gone through they both find the love they need. The writing is great, the characters are fascinating and the unexpected twists make this a must read. The story is intense, heartbreakingly beautiful and that ending left me wanting more. I can’t wait to read the next book in this amazing series.
One dark and torn soul, and another lost and afraid! when fate brings them together neither wants to let go! But will the sins of the first tarnish the beauty that the second one holds?
Elijah wasn’t looking for a woman like Evangeline. He wasn’t looking at all, but when the guys storm a ship the last thing they thought they’d discover is starting right back at them! Now with all their lives influx Elijah is having to face the demons of his past, the demons that built him to save the woman who helped them. Can this be a new beginning for both or is it just another memory that Elijah will try to let go!?
Eva and Elijah’s stories are both pained with events in their pasts! Though it was a tough one I loved learning E’s story and who he is! He’s a softy under all that stone and I absolutely loved how Eva stood next to him as it all crumbled around him! They leaned on one another and helped to calm the sadness within the other!
Getting to see everyone again has me on cloud 9 and I love how each story, the stories of each member has progressed! I’m sad Dark Tides is the last book but I also can’t wait to get the full picture of each man!
I don’t even know where to begin with this book. I loved every single part of it. Even the parts that broke my heart. I just wanted to hug both Elijah and Eva for what they’d each gone through. There were a couple of times that I can’t help but think there’s going to be trouble down the line for the crew. And that ending! OMG! I can’t wait for the next book. I want more!!!
Elijah and Evangeline have been through some tough times. He’s become a hard man, keeping everyone at arms’ length. Can Eva bring light back into his darkness? This series is fantastic. It’s gritty, full of action and passion, and the characters are supportive and helped so much. My heart hurt for these two, and their feelings were so raw, yet so real. I only wanted to see them find their happiness together!
This is one emotional story in this series that delves into some real truths. I felt for Evangeline and I fell for Elijah. Both trying to move forward, find exactly what they need in each other. This series is one of the best I have read.
This was a rough one. Elijah and Evangeline are both damaged by the past. They told him no but he would not leave her. I’m enjoying this series so much. Lots of aghast, suspense and spicy sex. Each book gets better than the last. I will be sad to see this series end but I’m ready for the next book now!!
Gwyn McNamee continues her stunning journey in the writing world with Anchor Point. Anchor Point is just everything you want and need in a fantastic book. Once this story begins to unfold, it’s fast and keeps your wanting to know more. This one is a real nail biter of a read…full of action, adventure, intrigue and secrets. Elijah and Evangeline are just both amazing. Their characters were written and developed beautifully throught the book. I literally want to live in this world with them.
Anchor Point is not your typical MC book but you will absolutely love it.
I applaud Gwyn McNamee on this book. It truly is fantatsic and I can’t wait to tell people to read it!
I voluntarily submitted an ARC review for this book.
“Every one of us has scars. Some are visible, and some are hidden. Every one of us has demons. Some people defeat their demons… Others feed them, giving them strength and power and it just leads to them constantly fighting a war they’re destined to lose.”
Anchor Point is book 4 in Gwyn McNamee’s Inland Seas series. I could not put this book down! I absolutely loved the chemistry between Elijah & Evangeline. Full of twists, turns & tears, as always, Gwyn does not disappoint!
Gwyn gives us characters that you just can’t get enough of. Ones you can’t help but love, but also Sort of hate. Her secondary characters leave you wanting more…I cannot wait to see what these Modern Day Pirates do next!
4
This was a hard read for me, for personal reasons, but I had to keep reading. The story just engulfed me. E’s story alone is heartbreaking, and when Evangeline comes in, you can just see how much they’re meant to save each other.
I definitely recommend this HEA romance and the rest of the books in the series. I can’t wait to read the final book, Dark Tide, when I comes.
In book 4 of the Inland Sea series and we finally get E’s story. Elijah has been elusive, enigmatic and edgy, now we get to know what made him that way. Let me tell you it will break your heart.
******
Overall Rating: 5 (I want a modern day pirate) Stars!
Kindle unlimited: No
Standalone: Could be, but I don’t recommend it. Although this book is about a specific couple, there is an underlying story arc
******
Book 4 features Elijah and Evangeline, two broken people that have suffered so much you have to wonder if they can recover from their respective tragedies. Can two broken people, heal the cracks in their hearts?
Evangeline no longer trusts herself, or people. She’s been hurt, but there is something about Elijah that gives her hope. Elijah has gone through a tragedy that will make you cry, his heart has been ripped out, stepped on, and it’s a wonder he gets out of bed everyday. However, watching the two of them fight their demons, learn to trust, and heal their hearts is an amazing story.
Of course, there is suspense, there is steam, all my fave pirates (Preacher), and yet another foe that this team of good bad guys to overcome. Basically, this book has it all! So what are you waiting for? Read this book/series! This series has all my recommendations and I am now anxiously waiting for Rion’s book!!! EEEKKKK!!!
Anchor Point is exciting and full of angst.
Elijah “E” is the only man in the Inland Sea Series that has gone to prison and has not served the government in some way. In Anchor Point we get to see what happened and how E ended up in prison. He is different from the rest of the men, he carries a demon around with him.
Evangeline “Eva” finds herself in a very bad situation, almost ready to give up. E shows up with the guys on a mission and they are all baffled and surprised at what they find. Against what everyone else says E brings Eva back with him. This mission has dragged out E’s demon and he has a hard time dealing with it all.
I really enjoyed reading about Elijah and Eva’s story. How E deals with his problems, how he deals with the things he feels with Eva around. How Eva deals with the feelings of what happened and how she got into this situation.
I loved the additions that we were introduced to in the Inland Seas family!
love this series
so intense emotional broken beautiful heartstopping gripping amazing love story of Eva and E so ready for more bring on rion
This was another solid offering from this series! The band of pirates, on orders from Valentina, board a freighter in order to take the ship’s cargo. Little did they know that the cargo also included victims of human trafficking. There was one woman who was chained up who helped them out. Elijah couldn’t leave her behind. Elijah didn’t want to get close to her but he couldn’t help himself. He has a past, and what a story it was! Evangeline’s story was proof of just how cunning traffickers are in selecting their victims. Their story together was so worth reading! It was also good to see all the others interact in this book. I can’t wait for the final book in this series.
Thank you for the privilege of reading this book! Well done
I loved how Eva broke through Elijah’s tough shell to find the wonderful guy underneath. Wracked by guilt and bad choices his was a long hard slog to redemption but Eva deserved a great man and she definitely got that in Anchor Point.
The story flows well, with lots of secrets and mystery, plenty of action, scorching hot chemistry and excellent pace. I adored both Eva and Elijah, neither was perfect, both had secrets and had been hurt by life but at the end of the day they have a good soul. I definitely felt the connection between this pair and totally believed in their love for one another.
Whilst the book could be read stand alone, there is a backstory that runs throughout the series. So for ultimate enjoyment and understanding I would suggest reading the books in order. As someone who reads very dark romance stories, I would place this on the lighter end of the spectrum. It is a gritty read and deals with dark subject matter, though very little is observed “first hand” or impacts the main characters personally and directly within the timeline of the book.
Highly recommended if you love a well written, pacey and HAWT romantic suspense. Especially if you love your heroes all alpha and moody.
The plot was well written and flowed smoothly from page to page and the characters were so strongly created that Eva and Elijah involved me in their journey as it evolved!
