Ocean's Surrender
by Denise Townsend
Still recovering form being attacked by her ex boyfriend, River is
trying to make life better for both her and her brother Jason. But it's
really hard to do so when Jason was arrested for the murder of said ex
boyfriend and River was left for dead but was brought back to life by
the oh so sexy paramedic Leo who secretly has feelings for her. But
River is not the only one who was affected that horrible night, Jason also
remembers that night and he still feels his sister pain.
I have to say that to me River was too much into the
self pity, I know that sounds bad but it's how I feel lol. I felt bad
for her of course but I think she should be grateful that she was given
a second chance and not dwell on the past. Harsh I know but True. She's
a survivor and she has her brother to THANK. Jason was amazing in this
story, I love how much he loved his sister, and having a brother that's
mentally and physically handicapped I can relate to how much River LOVES
him. I had a smile on my face when I was reading about Jason.
Jason wanting to help his sister forget about her
past confines in Fen the sexy selkie. Fen is able to sense Rivers
emotions and sees that it is time for her to let go of those horrible
feelings and work on making her life better. By better I mean hooking
her up Leo. The chemistry between Leo and River was OK, not OMG SMOKING
HOT, but OK.
Soooo GLAD that this story did not turn into a love triangle, don't
get me wrong sometimes you need a little competition in a story to get
it going, but this story was great without it.
This was my second read with a selkie in it and I have to say that I
enjoyed it. Denise Townsend has done an amazing job and I'm looking
forward to read Ocean's Touch.

I've been wanting to check these books out. I've read Townsend under her other pen name. Those books are more UF. I really want to see how her romance books read. Thanks for sharing!
