Summary
The sea heals all things.
Tempest Island has weathered the worst of storms and still stands proud, providing its residents with the healing power of the sea and sun. When Alayna Scott’s life falls spectacularly apart, both professionally and personally, the executive chef’s only thought is getting back home to the island and her aunt Bea. Between the two, she hopes to put the past behind her and figure out how to move forward.
After being injured during a mission, Navy SEAL Luke Ryan is at a crossroads concerning his future and recognizes that his new neighbor is on a similar journey. But in addition to being in a state of flux, it’s clear to him that Alayna is worried about something besides her future, and Luke wonders what kind of secrets are behind the fear she’s trying to hide. When Alayna’s past comes rushing in, attempting to pull her under, Luke wants nothing more than to help her make it through this storm and on to calm waters.
But are Luke and Tempest Island enough?

Excellent Loved It!!
Another wonderful series by Jana DeLeon. The first book Backrush was so well written. So many twists and great characters. The second book in the series Adrift is excellent also the characters are relatable and a lot of fun women. I can’t wait for the third book to be released. Thank you Jana DeLeon you are awesome.

I little sappy for me…
I like this author’s other series but I think I’ll pass on this one after this book. A little too much romance snappiness for my taste. Can’t imagine any SEAL acting or saying some of this. The voice the performer used for Luke drove me crazy. I almost stopped listening. If you want a romance, I guess you’ll like this. Not for me.

Missing the fantastic humor!
The story was very good, however I’m so used to the humor in the Mudbug and Fortune series that I was hoping this book would have some. I’ve read all of Jana’s books over and over and love them!

Disappointed.
Most of the story was the chef wallowing in her misfortune. I enjoyed the author’s Miss Fortune series so I toughed it out. By the end I was pulling for the bad guys just to shut the chef up. Narrator didn’t help. Very, very disappointed.

Awful female narrator
Good story, would like to continue the series but will not on audible. The female narrator sounded like Siri - was this a bot doing the recording?? The male voice was fine.

Disappointed
I have enjoyed the Miss Fortune and Shaye Archer series and listen to them frequently. This book I did not enjoy and will not be following the series.

Disappointed
I was excited to purchase this as I loved the Miss Fortune series and Tom is a talented voice actor. However his talents were not utilized as much as they should have been. He should have had more roles with his wide range, female, sinister, good natured, knowledgeable elder characters. I was distracted by the nasal sound of the leading man and cringed. Would have enjoyed more if presented differently. In my opinion a perfect book would be written by Jana. Narrated by Tom and Cassandra or since I am dreaming Nicole Poole

Not good
I thoroughly enjoyed the Miss Fortune series. Backrush is poorly written, very repetitive @& drags on & on. And I have never heard a voice as bad as Luke’s. It was not only strange, but very inconsistent in tone & pronunciations. Surely, the author can find many more make voices. Book disappointing
