Review

This debut novel by Jasmine Aherne is an incredible treat for your senses. You will be swept away by the romance of Rachel Coles and Will Norton, a couple who meet on a flight into New York. The London traveler is coming to surprise her fiancée and stumbles upon heartbreak and misfortune. Helping her through it all, Will steps in and soon takes over her heart.

I loved the camaraderie and chemistry between Will and Rachel—it starts off gently and starts to simmer as they spend time together and grow closer. Their friendship is fun and comfortable, although attraction bubbles under the surface. But soon, the simmering heat turns into full blown passion and you’ll find yourself caught up in their emotions, not wanting the book to end. The vibrant writing style Aherne possesses makes every scene, every sense come alive. With her enchanting story telling skills, she illustrates how regular lives can be transformed through the power of love. All it takes is the right person. Jasmine Aherne is an author to keep your eye on—I highly recommend adding Stranded to your “must buy” list!

  1. Sorry guys that I haven't stopped by again this week before now! I have been stuck in Regency England, oh somewhere around 1826! LOL!

    "Stranded" sounds great, what a debut! Way to go, Jasmine!
