McClairen's Isle--The Ravishing One: Connie Brockway

“Fia: The Ravishing One

“She is the toast of London society. But Fia Merrick gives her heart to no one, for love is a weakness she cannot afford. Once she would have given her soul to Thomas McClairen, until he shattered her innocent dreams. Now he is back, a convict returned to England in disguise to abduct Fia to Scotland, to McClairen’s Isle. There, as Fia seeks her revenge in seduction, a passion is ignited that defies the past and cannot be denied…”

I finished this book last night and it was pretty good. I have to say that—though it is not my favorite of the series—it is the most well-written. There weren’t really the “plot holes” that I saw in the previous books and there seemed to be an improvement on the writing style itself. I started out this book with the sole intention of “surviving” it just to finish the McClairen’s Isle series. I don’t want to give too much away, but I really enjoyed how Connie Brockway incorporated all of the characters of her past two novels to tie up loose ends and create a happy finale. I’m not certain how adamant I am about reading more of Brockway in the future. Maybe I will—if I have nothing better to do…
