Carolina Man

A Dare Island Novel

De: Virginia Kantra

Narrado por: Sophie Eastlake

Meet the Fletchers of Dare Island

Ambitious Meg, the daughter who never looked back

Steady Matt, the son who stayed

And rebel Luke, the Marine who thought he’d never return

A heartwarming new novel in New York Times best-selling author Virginia Kantra’s beloved series about family ties, second chances, and the power of love…

Marine Luke Fletcher is determined to do his duty—first to his country and now to his ten-year-old daughter, the unexpected legacy of a high school girlfriend. But his homecoming to Dare Island in North Carolina's Outer Banks challenges his plans for the future and forces him to face everything that's missing in his life. He wasn't prepared to lose his heart to this child he never knew. Or to fall hard for coolly reserved small town lawyer Kate Dolan.

Former military brat Kate knows Marines can make lousy fathers...and she's got the scars to prove it. Giving her heart to a man who's bent on leaving seems one sure way to have it broken.

Now, no matter what it takes, Luke must prove to Kate and to his daughter that Semper Fi is more than a motto—and to himself that there’s more than one way to be a hero.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"With a swirl of successful and engaging features—small-town charm, family loyalty, a strong-but-gentle warrior hero—combined with strong writing and powerful storytelling, Kantra delivers a sexy, satisfying love story. Contemporary romance as warm and gratifying as a perfect day at the beach." ( Kirkus Reviews)

"Filled with tender moments and sexy, sparkling exchanges, Kantra’s latest Dare Island romance is satisfying and sigh-worthy. Kate and Luke must learn to trust and let go of their guilt in order to find happiness together. A shivery, sensual and sensational read." ( BookPage)

Dad of the Year

If for no other reason, I would have loved this book and Luke for ditching his military career to raise a daughter he didn't know he had.

It was heart-warming and sometimes humorous as Luke learned to love and appreciate Taylor with the support of his family and attractive lawyer Kate.

Kate had daddy issues yet stepped out of her comfort zone to help a motherless girl who needed security and understanding.

Carolina Man. was an entertaining mixture of romance and family drama.

No Dog Left Behind

Love Luke; a Marine Living Up 2 EVERY Challenge

This is the third in the Dare Island series. If you plan to read the entire series in order you may want to wait to read this review as it could contain spoilers.

Luke Fletcher is in the Marine Corps he has just learned that about that his high school girlfriend has died leaving him with a 10-year-old daughter! Now he must make decisions and faces challenges whose first thoughts were for country, order and leading his men, now needs to figure out what the heck he is going to do.

When he goes home to Dare Island he gains full custody of his daughter thanks, in part, to Kate Dolan, the attorney who represented the estate of his former girlfriend. (The mother of his child.)

I really enjoy this Virginia Kantra series. I have been waiting for a long time to listen to them and it was well worth the wait.

Sophie Eastlake does a wonderful job in narrating the books, I've run out of words positive words for describing her.

Note: There are some heavy, intense scenes and discussions of child abuse.

Thanks for reading my review if you have found it helpful please select yes under this text.

Truly Heroic

This is the kind of story I expect from Virginia Kantra, a truly beautiful story of love, family and doing the right thing! There were so many heroes in this story, so many small heroic moments, it is the kind of story that leaves you feeling good and wanting these characters to be your friends. The back drop the Outerbanks and small town life blends well with the reality that is in every town. Great story and a fabulous series!
