This is truly a wonderful sweet romance book. Abigail and Gavin enter into a marriage of convenience that grows into love. The characters overcome shipwrecks, gossip, death, several obstacles and sabotages to light house. But together Gavin and Abigail were able to work together to accomplish the goal of keeping the lighthouse light and providing safety to ships during storms. The story was a rollercoaster of emotions. One minute I was laughing and the next crying! It was such an inspiring book to read. I would definitely recommend it.
I received a digital ARC from the author in exchange for an honest and voluntary review.

Terrific book!!! I thoroughly enjoyed reading about the lighthouse keeper and the captain she saves who then saves her and falls in love with her. It was hard to put the book down, couldn’t wait to read the next chapter and the one after that. I was sort of sad when I finally finished, i felt like the characters were old friends. A great
read for a rainy day. Abigail was amazing, a very strong, enigmatic personality and the captain was an absolute pleasure. A must read, you will get involved and really enjoy this one. Please keep up the great work. Sue D.
