Stunning, fascinatingly detailed, beautifully written, and heart-wrenchingly emotional are all words I would use to describe this book. It took me on a true roller coaster of ups and downs as I followed Erik's life story. The loss and suffering he had to endure, the events that would have pushed any normal person into permanent depression, and his irrepressible need to survive it all had me spellbound. Add to that the amazing setting and his unusual profession of shark diver, and I have to say this is one of the most unusual, tension-filled, yet ultimately uplifting books I have read in a while. My interest in this book started when I read the blurb and discovered the unusual setting. The idea of Erik losing his entire life, including his lover, only to discover years later than Kerry is still alive had me deciding I would read it despite the slight fear it would be utterly depressing. And boy, did the author hold me in suspense. The events dragged me along, the characters fascinated and infuriated me in equal measure, and the tension was almost unbearable in places. So much so that I was tempted to skip ahead and read the ending first. I hate myself when I do that, but let me tell you, with this book it was a close call! If you like tension-filled stories with lots of angst and drama, if you want to experience what it's like to have your heart ripped out then put back together again, and if you think you're up to following these characters into hell and back, then you will probably like this book as much as I did. What a ride! sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Erik Hash thought he had everything he wanted in life. As the next-in-line to run his uncle's shark diving company in Van Dyks Bay, South Africa, he spent his days with the calming roll of the ocean beneath his feet, privileged to share the otherworldly presence of the great whites with travelers from across the globe. Then Kiernan Callaghan stepped onto his boat and Hash knew he needed Kerry in his life, not just in his bed. Kerry isn't out, and he may never be comfortable kissing Hash in public, but Kerry loves him deeply. Three years later, they're business partners who live together. With Kerry at his side, Hash's life really is perfect. Then in one night, Hash loses everything--his business, Kerry, and his desire to live. The victim of a violent hate crime, he leaves South Africa and takes a job aboard a private yacht to escape. But no matter how far he travels, he can't get away from his memories of Kerry. When Hash encounters Kerry in Fiji three years later, he wonders if there's something left for them to rebuild. Reader Advisory: This book contains threats of sexual violence.
