To show her he’s the hero she once loved, he must find her son…Vince Kolya inherited only one trait from his biological father: a need to be on the sea. The rest of his life he has tried to emulate what he learned from his unofficial adopted family, the Belgardes: dedicating his life to helping others instead of abusing them. Unfortunately, he’s yet to find a woman who wants the same things he … the same things he does in life. It’s bad enough that his wife left him, but she also failed to make his boat payments while he was on a three-month stint. Giving up on relationships, Vince throws himself into working with his family’s search & rescue team. Highest on his to-do list, though, is saving money to buy another boat so he can get back on the water, away from the reminders of his abusive past.
Now that her father is dead and buried, Valery Yura is coming home to her beloved state of Alaska in hopes that moving her troubled son to the place where she grew up will transform him into the loving young man he once was. The last thing she needs is a distraction, especially when it comes in the form of the gorgeous man she’s loved her entire life—Vince. A few too many drinks and sexy dancing on the dock, and she’s repeating ancient history, a situation she can’t allow. When her son goes missing from summer camp, Valery feels that the authorities aren’t doing everything possible. Although she’s resigned herself to never seeing Vince again, she needs his help.
As much as Vince tries to hold onto his feelings of anger and abandonment, knowing it’s paramount to protecting his heart, he finds himself falling deeper and deeper for Valery. Determined to give Valery closure and win back her heart, Vince embarks on an all-out manhunt for the missing boy. What he discovers, though, might be a death warrant for him and the woman he can’t lose again.

I’ve read each book in this series and I was hooked from the first. If I had a favorite I would say so far I love Vince’s story the most. Not just because of the great writing and clever plot, but because it’s emotional, it’s powerful, it’s REAL, it touches on subjects we all know exist but few people want to know about. And it shows us that no matter how dark one’s start in life is, he/she can always find the light and make the best of things. Not many have the strength to go up that road and the ambition to keep on walking, but Vince and Valery are no push-overs. They’re among the most interesting, well-developed and inspirational characters I’ve read lately. The author did a fantastic job penning these characters. And the ending actually made me WHOA aloud! I can’t wait for the next book in this series!
Loved the first three of this series and am waiting for the publication of the remaining 2 to purchase. Strong people trying to live down their past and finding unexpected power in relationships. Great stories.
Love the characters in this story. They are realistic and unique from other romance style stories.
