Nearly everyone is skeptical until suspicious incidents, threats, and a stalker convince FBI agent Marc that Elin, her mother, and daughter may actually be in serious danger.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Seagrass Pier&#8221; was a page-turner from the very start and the suspense grew with each chapter. As the story progressed, the suspect list grew along with more than one surprising twist to the tale. Characters and dialogue were well developed and natural. As expected, a romance between Elin and Marc was inevitable yet 100% believable. Both Marc and Elin were flawed but admirable characters whose concern for others was obvious. Although not a predominate factor in the story, Marc and Elin&#8217;s faith during their trials was apparent.<\/p>\n<p>I have read and loved nearly every book Colleen Coble has written. If I have missed one, you can be sure it will be in my possession asap. Needless to say I jumped at the chance to review &#8220;Seagrass Pier&#8221; when it was offered by the Litfuse Group and hoped to be chosen as one of the reviewers. Even if I had missed out, I would have already preordered the book and would now be eagerly awaiting its release date. So thankful I didn&#8217;t have to wait that long. I thoroughly enjoyed &#8220;Seagrass Pier&#8221; as well as the rest of the Hope Beach series and hated to see its end. I enthusiastically recommend it and any other book by Colleen Coble.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10857\" title=\"divider2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png 317w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2-150x28.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>This book was provided for review by LitFuse Publicity.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-17136\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Seagrass-Pier.jpg\" alt=\"Seagrass Pier\" width=\"400\" height=\"613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Seagrass-Pier.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Seagrass-Pier-97x150.jpg 97w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Seagrass-Pier-150x229.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>In a secluded corner of Hope Beach, one woman must decipher a stranger\u2019s memories . . . before they cost her everything.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>But when Elin begins having violent flashbacks\u2014and vivid dreams of being strangled\u2014she realizes that she has been the recipient of more than just a new heart . . . Elin is remembering her donor\u2019s murder.<\/p>\n<p>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\u2014by a man she\u2019s only met in her nightmares.<\/p>\n<p>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\u2019s daughter.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, he doesn\u2019t know about that. Yet.<\/p>\n<p>Now, in a remote cottage on Hope Island, Elin and Marc must probe the secrets buried in her borrowed heart. And there\u2019s no time to waste. One man is desperate to silence her\u2014before she remembers too much.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/colleencoble.com\/2014\/news\/coming-soon-seagrass-pier\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Learn more and purchase a copy at Colleen\u2019s website<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Read a preview of &#8220;Seagrass Pier&#8221; <a title=\"Seagrass Pier by Colleen Coble\" href=\"http:\/\/issuu.com\/tnelson\/docs\/issuu_seagrass_pier_first_pass__1_?e=0\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-15241\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/CCoble-110.jpg\" alt=\"Colleen Coble\" width=\"200\" height=\"187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/CCoble-110.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/CCoble-110-150x140.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>Colleen Coble has sold over 2 million novels worldwide. \u201cSeagrass Pier,\u201d the third installment in her acclaimed Hope Beach series, marks a new highpoint for emotion and complexity in Coble\u2019s addictive brand of romantic suspense.<\/p>\n<p>Find out more about Colleen at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.colleencoble.com\/\">http:\/\/www.colleencoble.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MY REVIEW: The plot of &#8220;Seagrass Pier&#8221; is a unique one that features Elin, a heart transplant recipient who frequently experiences what seem to be memories of her donor&#8217;s murder.
