Book review: Tropical Storm, by Skye Warren & Amelia Wilde

Desert Island #3

Finally, we get to see Carter in the midst of his family! I saw a brother, Leo, desperate to help his brother and rescue him.  And I saw Carter fighting him off, thinking to protect him back.  I loved seeing how Carter lost it when they took Theo into the operating room.  

We see a Carter with very intense feelings, a ton of mistrust, and a ton of concern to do the best for June and Theo.  However, I thought his mistrust was misplaced as I saw so much concern and love from his siblings.  Leo would kill a whole nation for his brother and somehow I felt Carter did not get this.


There were a lot of currents in Leo’s house and I loved seeing how love for baby Abby neutralized a lot of the heightened feelings.  I saw how Carter feared his father’s opinion of himself and his relation with June and Theo.  I was impatient with Theo and his preoccupation with the sin in the city and how it would corrupt him.  He’s a beautiful soul but so naive, so misguided by his mentally troubled mother.  


I loved seeing how this group of siblings circled their wagons around Carter and his loves.  How their love covered them all and how much acceptance there was.  Carter was so blinded by his concerns that he didn’t notice this.


The spy/mole portion of the story added suspense but somehow felt inconclusive.


Loved seeing a vulnerable Carter, a loving Theo, and a supportive June.  June was truly the bond that kept these two sane and together.  She faced Carter when he was at his most wild and kept Theo grounded so he wouldn’t fly too much at the sins he felt all around.  It was a great finale, with all the Morelli siblings so present and even Grandpa Morelli doing his stint, getting all gooey with baby Abby.

Book review: KARMA’S KISS, by R.S. Grey

The best part about this book is that it’s a small town romance, and I love this trope.  Everyone knows everyone else’s business, gossip tra...
