Synopsis:
Returning to her MsAdventures at Sea series, McKellar (A Port of No Return, 2006, etc.) delivers another steamy romance/adventure. Twentysomething Quinn Anne Carrigan has had it with life on land, especially with her ditzy roommate, Cyndi, and Cyndi’s druggie boyfriend. Leaving her Jamaican lover Noah behind, Quinn sets out on yet another adventure on the high seas, this time as the cook aboard the Mexican luxury yacht Vanora. She’s teamed with Marcus, a landlubber friend Quinn finagles onto the crew; Marnie, a hard-bodied lesbian; and Hank Somers. Rounding out the team is the Vanora’s oversexed and controlling capitán, Diego Reyes.
Quinn begins an affair with the Vanora’s rakish, millionaire owner, Rafael Santiago, which she’s determined to hide from Diego, who, Quinn is convinced, is harboring a dark secret. Soon enough, Diego’s past catches up with the ship crew. Thanks to a radio message, Quinn’s old Zephyr friends Dr. Felix Templeton, Chip and Noah, come to the rescue. But this unexpected reunion leads to an unwelcome love triangle and all its emotional turmoil. With drug lords in hot pursuit and the story’s heroine forced to choose between two lean and muscled suitors, The Shadows of the Sea has all the requisite angst and body heat to satisfy romance aficionados. McKellar’s fans won’t be disappointed. – Kirkus Reviews
