About the Book:
On the glittering waters of the Caribbean, a yacht captain’s fight for survival forces her to rely on a man she swore she’d never trust.A fiercely independent yacht captain, Kenzie Wright has spent her life disregarding her family’s expectations. She thrives on freedom, charting her own course, and never staying in one place—or with one person—for long. But when a routine voyage thrusts her into the crosshairs of a deadly drug cartel, her carefully crafted agenda is blown apart. Her last hope to save herself and her crew is the partying playboy, Jasper Aylett.
DEA informant Jasper Aylett has spent years hunting the cartel leader known only as “the Phantom.” The mission has cost him everything—his family, his reputation, and his chance at redemption. When a beautiful yacht captain gets caught in the Phantom’s web, Jasper risks his life to rescue her. It’s his last chance to secure the information he needs to take his enemy down—and get his life back.
Kenzie is forced into hiding with Jasper, and now two cartels want her dead. With their lives on the line, Kenzie and Jasper must work together to unravel the Phantom’s network before it’s too late. But the closer they get to the truth—and to each other—the more their past wounds and buried fears threaten to tear them apart, leaving them vulnerable to an enemy who won’t stop until they’re both destroyed.
My Thoughts:
These days, it is rare for me to read through a book quickly. However, Anchoring You by Robin Patchen was a delight to pick up at the end of the day. The story held my attention from the start to the end, in particular because I really liked Kenzie as a person. She was honest; she struggled; she made mistakes; she had past hurts; and life pulled the rug out from under her at the start of this story. But, she loved Jesus and survived the hardship of it all.
Anchoring You is the best kind of romantic suspense for me. There’s danger and mystery, but it didn’t give me nightmares. Each time I picked it up, I felt eager to see what would happen. Then, Robin Patchen produced a fully satisfying ending with a solved mystery, living survivors, and committed relationships.
Anchoring You landed as book nine in the Wright Heroes of Maine series by Robin Patchen, but it read fine as a standalone. I’ve read books one and six, and I’m eager to read more of these Wright family novels.
