Book Review: Seabon by Lena North 4*


I have just finished reading ‘Seaborn’ written by Lena North. Firstly let me thank Netgalley that sent me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. 

Today is actually the publishing date of ‘Seaborn’ and I am very excited that I have just finished reading it on time!

Seaborn was was 4* book for me. It had me laughing and awing and oohing and making all sort of sort of sounds that a good book should make you do!

The book is about Charlie, a young woman that grew up in an unstable environment and who ended up being in an abusive relationship which she had to get away
from at any cost. A friend, Carrie, helped her get away and she was taken to a remote location on the islands that Carrie was from. On the islands Charlie meets Joao, the chief of police and protector of the islands, and their connection is instant.. the story unfolds from there..

I loved how you could see the evolution of Charlie’s character. She transformed from being closed up, scared and having no trust towards anyone to a bubbly, happy person who could not wait to be surrounded by people she loved (who of course loved her back).

The romance part of the story unfolds smoothly and, as is usually done in most romance books, there is a twist at some point in the book that has both characters gutted. The twist in this book was NOT your usual twist and I honestly did not see it coming! And it does not end there. There are a lot more twists and turns especially after the first half of the book that keep you turning the pages.

The paranormal part was a first for me to be honest but I thought that it was very fresh and different.

I really enjoyed this book and I look forward to reading more from this author.

Thanks for your time
Christina
