The Reef is a compelling romantic tale of love, betrayal, and witchcraft surrounding a priceless necklace named Angelique's Curse lost at sea when the Isabella shipwrecks off the Caribbean coast in the 18th century. After chasing the haunted amulet for decades, Matthew and Buck Lassiter team up with the Beaumonts to continue the search, and, together, they stumble onto the Santa Margarita, a sunken ship off the Island of Nevis that contains priceless treasures but no necklace. Tate Beaumont and Matthew's love/hate relationship is painful and, at times, aggravating as the two families find their discovery snatched away by a madman who will go to any length to possess Angelique's Curse. The author's descriptive narrative of underwater diving is realistic and colorful, the action is lively, and the plots twists at the end are worth waiting for. All in all, I found this modern-day swashbuckler very entertaining. ( ) This book was a little too "romance fiction" for my complete liking but the story about treasure hunting in the Caribbean was certainly exciting and interesting. You just know the young hero and heroine are eventually going to get together but it's interesting to see the impediments to their relationship arise and eventually be overcome. The villain was suitably evil and the other characters were quite well developed. An enjoyable if light read.
Relationships are the key to this exciting and exotic adventure tale. Ms. Roberts uses all her consummate skill as a storyteller to make you root and care deeply for this small band of adventurers. Marvelous as always. È contenuto inÈ riassunto inMenzioni
