Seagrass Pier (The Hope Beach Series book 3)

By Colleen Coble

About the Book:

In a secluded corner of Hope Beach, one woman must decipher a stranger’s memories . . . before they cost her everything.

Elin Summerall was one of the lucky ones. Not only did she get a heart transplant, but the donor was a perfect fit. A miraculously perfect fit.

But when Elin begins having violent flashbacks—and vivid dreams of being strangled—she realizes that she has been the recipient of more than just a new heart . . . Elin is remembering her donor’s murder.

Her strange affliction has attracted some unwanted attention: from the press, from the authorities . . . and from the killer himself. Now, living alone with her young daughter and aging mother, Elin is being stalked—by a man she’s only met in her nightmares.

The police are dubious of her story, but one off-duty FBI agent is eager to help her: Agent Marc Everton, the father of Elin’s daughter.

Of course, he doesn’t know about that. Yet.

Now, in a remote cottage on Hope Island, Elin and Marc must probe the secrets buried in her borrowed heart. And there’s no time to waste. One man is desperate to silence her—before she remembers too much.

My Review

Seagrass Pier is the third book in Colleen Coble’s Hope Beach Series. This is the first book that I have read in this series and the book seemed to stand-alone rather well. Seagrass Pier is not only a romance novel but a mystery and suspense novel as well. Elin Summerall had received a heart transplant from the perfect donor, but after receiving the heart, Elin began to have nightmares, nightmares about how her donor had been killed. Scared for her, her young daughter and her mother’s safety, Elin moves to Hope Beach, but trouble follows.

FBI Agent Marc Everton is eager to help Elin and finds out that he is the father of Elin’s daughter. How will Marc react when he is told this information? Will they catch Elin’s stalker and put him away for murder?

I highly recommend reading this book to answer these questions. Wonderful book, great story line, definitely one you will not be able to put down.
