Holy hotness Batman! It gets increasingly difficult to review Gwyn McNamee’s novels. I struggle to find the words to really express what each of her novels do to me as I read them, and Rogue Wave was no exception to the rule. In fact, this book stands out as one of my favorites of McNamee’s to date. A difficult thing to do when her Stone Sober novels are some of my all time favorite reads in the history of ever.
This book takes back to the Inland Seas and the dark, looming, and suspenseful romance that seems to plague the characters in these books. This time we get to follow The Kraken and Principessa, also known as Cutter and Valentina. I absolutely flove these two. The way their romance ignited my kindle screen will be difficult to ever forget. I was gripped by the story they had to share with us and couldn’t get enough of the suspenseful drama that unfolded. I will definitely be the first in line for the next installment. I am sure it will just as fabulous and blow me away!
Rogue Wave by Gwyn McNamee is the second book in the Inland Seas series. If you haven’t read anything by this author before then I cannot stress enough that you need to change that. And this series is the perfect way to do it.
Gwyn McNamee can only be described as a pure artist. Everything she writes is perfect. It has the right amount of action and suspense, off set with romance and passion. Her characters are strong and relatable. They draw you into the story so fully that you are engrossed without even trying. That for me is what made this book so amazing. Cutter and Valentina were brilliant. The charisma and the chemistry they had both popped off the pages.
The book had the right pace to it as well. The author knew when to push it forward and knew when to draw back to let the story tell itself. This is yet another 5* read from this author and I cannot wait to see what else will be next.
Rouge Wave by Gwyn McNamee is the second book in the Inland Seas Series
She has a way of grabbing you from the very beginning of the story and takes you on an amazing journey with her characters. I have yet to be disappointed with anything I have read by Ms. McNamee and I have been fortunate enough to read most of what she has written to date.
Cutter is the guy you see walking down the street towards you and you either find yourself crossing to the other side or doing everything possible to make sure he didn’t notice you. He is angry (justifiably so) and his anger is visible.
Valentina is awesome. She’s tough and not afraid of Cutter or calling him out on his bull. She is a great person to match up against him and they do go toe to toe a few times.
Great book two to the series and I can’t wait for the next one!
Rogue Wave was a great 5 star read and book two in The Inland Seas series.
All I can say is Wow, what a heck of a read. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was coming next.
I was excited to get Cutter’s story. We got to meet him in the first book. In this book we get Cutter’s history which drew me right in and intrigued me.
Cutter is very edgy and not your typical man and I loved him. Valentina was a strong woman who was looking for her equal, and Cutter fit that mold. These two were so hot together you could feel the chemistry coming off the pages. We get some very steamy scenes from them.
Can these two get a HEA?
Overall I really enjoyed this book. There are several unexpected twists and turns that threw me for a loop. All of the secondary characters were great. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series. If you’re looking for a great MC read, I highly suggest you 1-click and get started today.
This is just as entrancing as the last book! The author easily draws me in and traps me with her words. I can’t let go until I have finished this book!! She makes me care about these characters. After the last book I couldn’t WAIT for Cutters book. I wanted to know more about him and WHAT type of woman could handle him. Let me tell you…it was worth the wait! He is a scary, angry, hard and a bad attitude kind of guy! This is not your normal lovable alpha man.
Hanging out with the crew is great as always. They have a wonderful camaraderie and trust in one another. Having War on Cutter’s case about certain things (involving a woman) made me laugh and chuckle.
Another knockout by this author. The writing is so smooth! Easy transitions from one scene to another making it flow so nicely. Everything is just perfect.i can’t wait for the next. Preacher!
Rogue Wave (The Inland Seas Series Book 2) by Gwyn McNamee was a fast pace, action filled edge of your seat read that had me hooked.
The second book in this intriguing read, I was pulled in right away. The book bought out all that I wanted from the MC’s in the first book. And I have to say that I loved this book more than the first.
The MC’s really stole the show. Well developed with strong layers that just kept being pealed back, they kept me reading and I didn’t want it to stop. It isn’t very often that I fall for both leads, and I have to say even though I wasn’t a big fan of Cutter in the first book, this one showcased him in a different way. So much backstory, so much, just, wow. I want to know more about him. Valentina carried over that fierce powerhouseness from the read, and she just kept proving how awesome she is.
Overall this is worth your time and energy, it has everything you want, strong sexy complex characters, great plot, wicket writing, and you got one hell of a good read. To end this book gets my super high recommendation and my golden stamp of approval.
Happy Reading
-E.A. Walsh
Rogue Wave is book two of The Inland Sea Series and is Cutter and Valentina’s story. Loved the love, hate relationship between Cutter and Valentina. Great writing, a captivating action-packed story, strong and likable characters and twists that pulled me into the story make this a fantastic read. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
What a ride! Loved it!
This is Cutter & Valentina’s Story. You met Cutter in book one and very briefly met Valentina. This book has so much going on. Around each corner there is action. These two are mysterious and sexy as hell. I enjoyed this book a lot.

5 ++++++ Stars
I just read this book in about 3 hours, I could not put it down once I started. I was so so so angry after Squall Line (angry in a good way LOL) and I could not wait to dive in to this one and I loved it just as much as Squall Line…There was sort of a cliffhanger but not one like the other so Im not swearing after this one.
There was a twist in this one that floored me, I had no idea and I think I kinda like it but I’m not sure, so we will see what the next book brings.
I have fallen in love with all of these people and can’t wait for what I hope is all of their stories. This series is a bit different than I’m used to from this author and Im really really loving it and hope she continues it for a while. I love how she is carrying these stories over into the next book, keeping everyone major players throughout.
I loved it as I do anything that this author writes and can not wait for the next in this series.
Rogue Wave (The Inland Series #2)

5 stars
O-M-G!!! What a phenomenal read! I was completely captivated by this book from the very first page! This author truly does know how to capture my attention and keep it until the very last word. I thought I loved book 1 in the series but Ms McNamee took this story to a completely different level – I think it is definitely in my top 5 reads of 2019, if not my favourite!
I probably shouldn’t have liked Cutter, I mean he wasn’t the nicest of characters but I couldn’t help myself, there was just something that drew me to him straight away. Valentina was a great female lead, I kind of expected her to be a little naive but she wasn’t at all – she could definitely stand her ground!
I almost wish I had never read this story just so I can go back and start it all over again! Fantastic characters, great storyline and a twist that I absolutely did NOT expect! I absolutely loved this book and I cannot recommend it enough!!!
McNamee certainly knows how to draw her readers in and send them on quite the thrill ride full of suspense and amazing chemistry. This second installment of the Inland Seas series continues the amazing journey begun in book one. Our two MC in this installment are just as magnetic and wonderfully flawed as you come to expect with McNamee. A master storyteller, this book doesn’t disappoint and kept me glued to the pages from beginning to end. I loved every word and can not recommend it highly enough! Run and get your own copy ASAP!
I loved this book. I couldn’t put this book down once I started reading it It pulled me right into the story. This story has a little bit of everything in it including sitting on the edge of my seat suspense. I loved the characters, they made the story feel as if I was right there. Cutter and Valentina has great chemistry with a slow burn. One hard and the other beautiful, together they bring heat and a love hate relationship. Will they find common ground? Their story is a must read!
Rogue Wave is the second book in The Inland Seas series. I didn’t think it could get any better but Gwyn McNamee has blown me away with the story of Cutter and Valentina. She had me on the edge of my seat riding her emotional roller coaster. If you haven’t started reading this series, start reading it today. Can’t wait for the next book!!
Rogue Wave is book 2 in Gwyn McNamee’s Inland Seas series & once again Gwyn does not disappoint!
“The wars inside me rage hard.
Between love and hate.
Anger and lust.
Fear and desire.”
I could not put this book down! Full of twists, turns & tears, Gwyn gives readers an ending you won’t see coming!
As always Gwyn gives us characters that you just can’t get enough of & can’t help but love (& hate at the same time LOL). Her secondary characters leave you wanting more…I cannot wait to see what these Modern Day Pirates do next!
I was totally hooked on Cutter and Valentina from the very beginning! The characters were strongly written in great detail and depth and the plot was well written and well planned! I was so engaged in this story that I had a very hard time putting this book down!
Cutter is a special kind of a$$hole. With all that Cutter Jackson has been through though that makes sense. Valentina is a strong woman, who has come to America from Italy to do a job. As the story progresses we learn a little more about the complex relationship that the guys have with each other. Rogue Wave is full of adventure and violence, a fiery love and a unforeseen twist. Everything that makes for an amazing story.
I loved that we got a little more of these men’s backstory. Cutter is a man you like or don’t, either way he is tough and guarded. Valentina is just as tough and a little less guarded, but these two mellow each other out some.
I can’t wait to see what in story for this group in the future.
There is a reason that Cutter is nicknamed “The Kraken”. He’s a cranky grizzly bear that has just come out of hibernation and makes War (from Squall Line) look like a cuddly panda bear. He’s an immense a-hole, but he gets things done. Somehow though, I found myself liking him by the end. Valentina kicks butt in her own way, so they’re the perfect match. Of course, that doesn’t mean they get along. This is a true enemies-to-lovers slow burn trope that turns into an inferno. This trope has to be done right to be good, and this is more than good, it’s awesome.
If that’s not enough, wait until you get to the twist. I should know by now there’s going to be a twist, I’ve read enough of Gwyn’s books to know this. But holy effing moly! Just go read it over yourself, but don’t say I didn’t warn you. You’ll be saying WTF?! Too.
love this series
loved Cutter and Valentinas emotional beautiful intense twisted love story
read for some more
After Squall Line, I was dying for more! I love Cutter and Valentina, The Kraken and his Principessa. Neither can trust the other, but there is simply no denying their nuclear chemistry! He’s a total alpha-hole, yet there’s a piece of them that I latched right on to, hoping for the better man to shine through. Valentina was smart and strong, and I loved her character. I’m so into this contemporary pirate/mafia romance, and the high-octane action kept me on edge as much as the explosive passion between Cutter and Valentina! The build-up was a nail biter that seriously had me hooked. A wonderful second book in this series!
Cutter is one broody sexy b@stard and my gosh is this book angsty as ever! Valentina challenges cutter at every turn and he throws it right back at her!
Just when the crew thought they had things going their way a huge curveball is thrown their way and the only way to get out is join forces with the sexy Italian but not if cutter can help it!
An amazing story and I loved seeing the whole gang again and can’t wait to see what lies ahead for the crew!
