Through the Riptide

"A young woman finds herself drawn into the seductive world of the Hamptons in Murray and Fahrie's novel...The Hamptons provide a breathtaking backdrop for a romance, and they lend the narrative a softer, more inviting ambience through Lindsey's thoughtful focus on history and nature-it's a nice contrast to the glitz and glamour that readers might expect...Lindsey’s memories of passionate hotel room nights with Karl are steamy enough to keep pulses racing, and Jasmine is a fabulous creation bringing fun, mystery, and vulnerability to the proceedings...Lindsey herself is a strong heroine—her flaws and weakness for Karl's muscles included...A fairly standard romance bolstered by intriguing characters and a lush setting."
