From one action scene to the next, the reader is drawn into a world where myths and legends come alive amid the pages and this reader was eagerly flipping the pages to see what would happen next for Graeme and Vanessa. Ms. DeHart delivers a fast paced story full of intriguing characters, a few twists to keep the reader guessing and a Scottish legend that everyone knows about are the basis of TREASURE ME.
Meet Vanessa Pembrooke, a scholarly independent woman bent on proving the existence of the famed Loch Ness Monster. Meeting Graeme Langford was a plus in her mind as he shared her love of adventuring and was handsome to boot. What I love about Vanessa was she was no shy miss. She was bold, independent and fearless. She was a woman after my own heart when I was reading TREASURE ME. She kept Graeme on his toes and the passion between them was smoldering.
Graeme Langford was a strong, alpha male hero-one I absolutely adored from the beginning. He had his soul mate in Vanessa and though he didn’t believe in a forever love, he couldn’t help himself from falling for the beauty. I loved the scenes between him and Vanessa the most. You could feel the sizzling chemistry between the two and knew it was going to combust very, very soon. There were a few secondary characters that had me on the edge of my seat and kept the story flowing nicely.
TREASURE ME is a fun, action packed story that will leave you breathless when you flip that last page. I am eager to see what myth and legend this author basis’s the next book on. If you are looking for a fun, intriguing story then you might be interested in TREASURE ME. I know I am going to read these three books in the series again in the future when I need my hunky heroes and feisty heroines who love adventure.
This is an objective review and not an endorsement of this book.
