[Tara · Rating 4 out of 5]

Neither Dawn nor Grace are particularly likeable at first. Dawn’s homophobia is really offputting, especially since it never comes up with main characters in lesbian romances these days, but also makes total sense because Saving Grace was first published in 1993. Grace is almost mercenary in how she approaches her career as well as her interactions with people, which extends to how she pursues Dawn. Both women have tremendous character growth throughout this book, however, which makes it particularly satisfying and they were both very different people by the end of it.

I detest fake-dating but I even detest books with internal homophobia even more, because who are you messing with.. I don't want that stuff in my head. I almost dnf-ed, but it was still weirdly fine.

Actually better than the first in the series (although I could do with more of Cody as a main character).

Fun, light and really quite sensual.

Enjoy!

This is the second book in the series and returns to Moon Island (written 1993). It is supposed to take place three years after the first story and I was mostly interested in catching up with Cody and Annabel. I think Annabel is the only main character I've read about that is an albino. The two main characters in this book are not particularly likable. One is recovering from a car accident that ruined trying out for the Australian Olympic Swim Team. The other is a Grace Ramsey who is ten years older and a scientist. She is there to see if Moon Island can be a toxic chemical dumping ground for a large international company. Grace does eventually have a change of heart about her actions but only when her company goes too far. This has some mystery and intrigue but the main romance didn't hold my interest.

The love continues with some new characters and a heart stopping incident. A pretty good read as well
