“Raine: The Reckless One“Raine Merrick’s wild, reckless spirit had earned him time in a French prison. When a mysterious beauty gains his freedom only to betray him, Raine Merrick sets out for his father’s castle on McClairen’s Isle, seeking the treasure hidden within. But strange surprises await him in the Highlands. He never expected to find his deceitful angel masquerading as an honored guest. Or to want her with all the searing passion in his sinner’s soul.”
Overall, this book was a decent one. Raine was a wonderfully written character and I truly enjoyed how he was portrayed by Brockway. The “deceitful angel”—I don’t want to give away too much—was an interesting character. I did like how she pretended to be who she was not in order to give penance for a sin she did not truly commit.
Again, however, there were the indescribable “plot holes” that I encountered. They made it hard to read and were really no more than bits of the story that could have been elaborated on ever-so-slightly for the readers’ benefit. I’m not one for a slightly supernatural romance novel, but this was not over the top.
I think I am going to end up taking a break from Connie Brockway and read another author because I am a little tired of having to think and rethink about if I read about something already or not.
