I love my visits to Gansett Island because it’s great meeting new characters as well as catching up with old friends. This is Jordan and Mason’s story and it’s as captivating as all the previous books.
Reality star Jordan Stokes is visiting her twin sister on Gansett Island, she is trying to escape social media and her ex who seems determined to drag her name through the mud.
Local fire chief Mason Johns is out on a bike ride when he spots smoke coming from a nearby house and he jumps right into firefighter mode and rescues Jordon from the flames in her grandmothers home. Mouth to mouth resuscitation is needed snd that leads to something very special for this couple but will Jordan want to make her home on the Island and will Mason open up and confide in Jordon with the daemons he fights on a daily basis …….
I loved everything about this book, Jordan and Mason fit in perfectly with previous characters who I have come to class as close friends. Every visit touches mt heart and I really can’t get enough of the wonderful McCarthy family and their partners and friends. Looking forward to more from Gansett Island in the future.
Love this series!
Great to get back to the island we love so much where life always has something unexpected in store. Enjoyed meeting new characters while getting to catch up with many of our old friends. Loved Mason and Jordan’s story.
The perfect beach read.
Rescue After Dark is book 20 of the Gansett Island Series by Marie Force. This is Mason and Jordan’s story. I did like them as a couple, but it took me a bit to connect with Jordan. Once I did, I began to understand her thought process. I liked the pacing of the book. It was good to see other characters from previous books. Over all, I enjoyed reading Rescue After Dark. I am looking forward to the next installment in the Gansett Island Series.
Jordan and Mason are such opposites, they really shouldn’t work… but damn, the sparks flying in this book aren’t only setting fire to the roof! Good thing Mason is a fireman.
I love when we get to go back to Gansett in Marie Force’s books, we get to visit old friends and family. Each book gives a catch up with some characters, and a hint towards future events. But this story being about the second half of an identical set of twins, I knew it would be something special.
I love how Jordan and Nikki are together, they really only had each other and their grandmother. But that Nikki’s fiancé, Riley, thinks absolutely nothing of including Jordan in activities and having her stay, that he does it for both women’s sake, is that extra piece. And after what we saw Jordan go through in her marriage during Nikki’s story, I think Riley and the other men on Gansett really make Jordan see that not all men are scum.
This book was a sweet addition to the Ganset Island series. An unexpected romance for the two characters who needed one another and the love they found only on this island. A crazy soon-to-be ex added to the drama and drew the couple together. A fun, sexy steamy read!
Returning to Gansett I was thrilled to see Mason get his HEA. Par for the course though the road had a few bumps, literally. Mason meets Jordan when he rescues her from a fire and immediately has a different experience with his CPR.
Mason and Jordan are both a bit gun shy, but very open about concerns. For the first time, communication is not the problem. In fact, their problems seem very easily fixed though not without a few tense moments. The MVP for me in this story though was Nikki and Evelyn. Those two women were some cool cucumbers. We met Gigi and she sounds like a hoot. I can’t wait to see what develops with her and their show being on the island.
As with all Gansett stories we see how several couples and characters are doing. Sydney about broke all of our hearts, Mac and Maddie are still have a rough time, but the support from this group was beautiful and sweet. Big Mac is still one of my favorites ever and Blaine continues to be a great character, police chief and family man.
This is a fun series that has vivid characters full of fun light hearted matters and real world problems. This story looked at the long term battle of alcoholism with the importance of support networks and domestic violence situations with the emotional turmoil that accompanies it. A good great and a great series.
Great story
If I have to work from home and not leave my house for anything other than absolute necessities, at least I can go to Gansett Island!
Another great addition to the series, Rescue After Dark finally sees the island fire chief finding his true love. Jordan and Mason are a lot of fun, and visits from other loved island residents make this book a huge winner!
Reading a Gansett Island story feels like visiting old friends In a place that you would love to spend the summer. It is a feel good kind of book full of romance and happily ever afters.
With every book I read in a long running series, I fear it has run its course and can no longer hold my interest. Rescue After Dark did the opposite.
I have been rescued from series burnout. I am no longer in the dark about my reading desires. I am happy to be back on Gansett Island and am in no hurry to leave.
Gansett Island is one of my favorite series to read. It’s a sure read and I know I’ll come away happy, satisfied, and longing for more. Unfortunately, Rescue After Dark didn’t give me that “happy after reading” feeling I get after reading a Gansett book. We have had glimpses of Fire Chief Mason Johns in previous stories and I eagerly awaited his own HEA story. I enjoyed the chemistry between Mason and Jordan. They were funny and had great banter. I also loved that despite both of them having had past failures in relationships, they still took a chance on each other without an emotional back and forth. Sadly, this story just lacked something for me, be it content or character development, I can’t put my finger on it. There were plenty of sexy times, which the Gansett Island books are full of, but I missed the character depth and relationship growth. Some secondary characters were more prominent in this story that we only get glimpses of in the past after their own stories (Mallory, Quinn, Blaine) so I enjoyed reading more of them. We were introduced to a few members of the fire department. Fans of the series will enjoy this read and I look forward to the next installment in the series.
Jordan is back on Gansett getting her life back together. Being saved by Mason the hot fire chief is just the spark she needs to get her new life started. Always love going back to Gansett Island!
I love all of Marie Force’s books, and I do mean all, but Gansett Island series holds a special place in my heart. This series and Maid for Love was the first book I read of Marie’s so anytime there is a Gansett Island book coming out I get so excited. Marie did not let us know at all with his book and with finally giving Mason his happy ending.
I have been looking forward to Mason’s story since we really got to know him a little more back in Light After Dark which was Mallory and Quinn’s story. Plus not only do we get Mason’s story in this book but we get to catch up with some of my personal favorites which are Mallory & Quinn and Mac & Maddie, plus of course some others.
Mason drew me in immediately in this book and how drawn he was to Jordan. Neither of them could seem to resist the other. There is a great story in this book with a little action as is norm in Gansett that I didn’t quite see coming but it just made the story even better.
I can’t wait for next year when we get the next book in the series and we get to catch up even more with all of the amazing couples in Gansett. I will NEVER get enough of Gansett Island.
I am a big fan of all of Marie Force’s books, especially the Gansett series. The characters are written so well that you almost long to meet them. In this book, it’s finally Mason’s turn to fall in love. I enjoyed learning more about Mason and I’m ready to move to the island!
Love, LOVE Marie Force books. Can ‘t go wrong with her books.
I have liked all the books in the series. They are all set on Gansett Island and they are about different couples who get together by the end of the books. They all let you catch up with the Island residents. I would recommend the entire series to everyone. You won’t regret reading them.
I’ve always loved the Gansett Island series. Each new book is better than the one before it. I love that no matter who the main characters are, we get to visit with the whole island, and all the residents on the island that we’ve gotten to know.
Mason Johns, Fire Chief, bachelor, recovering alcoholic, fitness buff, down to earth, loves his quiet life on Gansett Island.
Jordan Stokes, Reality TV star, twin to Nikki, poorly married, vegetarian, spent summers as a child on Gansett and now visiting on Island.
Two characters with nothing in common, except the undeniable chemistry they both felt when he rescues her.
When a series continues to be fresh and entertaining that is a credit to the author. Marie Force has created a world that I want to live in. I look forward to each story and always love when it is Island time.
Feel good story from outstanding author Marie Force. Loveable characters from apparently different world’s trying to bridge the miles as well as the lifestyles. Story flows keeps you up allnight.
