It is easy to tell when you've got your hands on a good book, and friends, this is a good book. It is full of mystery and intrigue, unexpected twists and plots, and just enough romance woven through to make it not over-the-top-lovey-dovey. Romance novels aren't really my thing, but a well written, informative, interesting mystery is!
The story line takes Ensign Rachel Whitney to a new post on a remote scrap of rock in the Pacific called Frasier Island. Living there in isolation with two other soldiers, both Rachel and Lt. George Hudson are running from their past...and ultimately towards each other. While guarding a highly classified secret for the US Government, Rachel comes to realize the importance of letting God have His rightful place in her life.
It is rare for a woman to be put in this position that Rachel finds herself in, and she feels she is equal to the task. But do her fellow soldiers think so? She helps them in more ways than just doing the cooking and cleaning. And you won't believe the secret they are keeping...from her.
I enjoy a book in which the author has clearly done the research and provides interesting information and facts that contribute to the story line. I came away from this story feeling that I learned much about the US military and government. I also gained even more of an appreciation for our soldiers and the way they sacrifice their lives for our protection and freedom.
I read this book in two sittings....it is that good. If you enjoy well-written, informative novels you will enjoy Frasier Island! You can purchase it in paperback, Kindle or Nook formats. It is the first in a 3-book series (although each can be read independently as well) so look for Finding Marie and Inside Story as well!
The exciting news? Susan Page Davis has agreed to give away a copy of Frasier Island to one of my readers!

HG is “a life-threatening pregnancy disease characterized by unrelenting nausea, vomiting, and extreme dehydration that often lasts the entire length of the pregnancy. The only known cure is giving birth.” Statistically 1 in every 300 women suffer from this disease, {However, I personally have heard of 2 women who are currently in the midst of an HG pregnancy!}
