On a Starlit Ocean

Reviewed by Helen
I really enjoy Charlotte Nash’s stories and this one is no exception I enjoyed it from start to finish, the setting is fabulous an island of the coast of Queensland and even though I don’t know a lot about yachting I learnt some things and enjoyed being on the yachts.
Erin Jacobs left Great Haven Island four years ago and has spent that time racing yachts in some of the most beautiful spots in the world, but when her sister Skye begs her to return home, she goes not knowing why and knowing this is going to be one of the hardest things to do with the secret she keeps, What she finds is her old flame, Tristan Drummond back on the island and redeveloping the resort something the island and its small population needs.
Dr Alex Bell is hired to work on the island taking over the practice that Erin’s father used to run, Alex has demons from his past but is loving working on the island he is also loving getting to know Erin, but will they ever move forward with what has happened in their past and with someone else determined to keep them apart.
Erin settles into work for Tristan organizing a regatta but things do not run as smoothly as she would like, Tristian is doing his best to rekindle their old relationship something that Erin has no plans to do especially as she is falling for the new doctor. Things turn dangerous at times for her and Alex and Erin finally opens up about what happened all of those years ago this is a fast paced story with many emotions jealousy, revenge and yes love as well.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story and I would highly recommend it to any reader who loves a good story in such a fabulous setting, the island has secrets that are also uncovered during the story which all added to it as well as fabulous characters some I was cheering on one maybe not, it is a great story and the yacht racing was very exciting.
