Going Overboard

This is the first book I've read by Ms. Skye. The story flowed rapidly and I thoroughly enjoyed the dialog between Carly and McKay, no pretense, tell it just like it is!! Gives you lots of heart gulping moments and boy can Ms. Skye describe kissing!! The secondary characters, Daphne and Izzy, fit in like gloves. The ending was brilliant. I don't want to describe the ending because it would ruin the surprise. This book was full of adventure, romance and people you'd like to hear more about. I've just finished reading Susanne Brockmann's 3 books which also was about Navy Seals. These two writers are fantastic!!

This is one of the best Romantic Suspense novels I have read in a while... Firstly there is no betrayal.. I hate betrayals.. Funny in places - emotional in others and some wonderful characters which seem to be Christina Skye's signature. I also like the fact that each character has their own personalities...I love this book as much as have the Draycott Series.. I am about to read 2000 kisses... I love her comtempories.. These books will definately be on my keeper shelves. Can't wait for more of the same... So here you go if like me you like action and adventure with suspense hot love scene.. climatic moments then this is a book for you... Buy it - its worth it. Thanks Christina for some wonderful entertainment.

I fell for Christina Skye after '2000 Kisses' so I bought 'Going Overboard' automatically. I knew it was a book I would read and enjoy... and boy, was I right ! Ms. Skye's charactres always seem SO vibrant and real, you almost feel like you could pick up the phone and call them. In 'Overboard', Carly and Mc Kay were no exception. Carly is the workaholic photographer haunted by the similarities to her deceased mother that she is only now discovering in herself. Mc Kay is the too-gorgeous-to-be-true hunk who bails her out of a jam professionally, and then risks his life to protect her when some slimey Russians take greed and revenge too far. Of course, being a Navy SEAL helps. As usual, the course of true love is anything but smooth, and the pair find themselves caught in the middle of a dangerous swirl of murder and deception. Basically, this book has everything. Looking for romance? Got it. Mystery? Check. Side-splitting dialogue and sharp witted sexual tension? Bingo. This book is everything we buy romantic suspense for. Don't wait. Click on the 'order' icon now. You won't regret it. Note to Ms. Skye . . . any chance of catching up with Daphne Brandon in future books ?We would love to see wht her future holds =:)

I was thrilled at the release of Going Overboard. This sweet and suspenseful book was loaded with lots of heat. Carly Sullivan is out to find the perfect man for the perfect commercial. She finds Ford McKay, Navy SEAL, who has been sent to protect her. Sparks fly. The story was nicely paced and the characters were well written. I wish Ms. Skye would have instensified the ending a tad. Ford's fear of the future could have been more poignant. (Julia Quinn's Duke and I, has changed how I view romance heroes!) The epilogue was sweet and left me wanting more. Ok, Ms. Skye, how about one big last bash at Draycott Abbey?

At sea, photographer Carly Sullivan desperately seeks a photogenic hunk to fulfill her contract with the cruise line after her model fails her. Carly and her temporary assistant and closest friend Daphne Brandon ogle all men over the age of sixteen, but find no one until they see an individual who oozes elegance.Carly offers money to Ford McKay, but he misinterprets what she wants and refuses to bed her for even $750 an hour. Navy SEAL Ford is undercover with orders from DC to protect a Carolina Sullivan. Apparently, death threats to the governor-general of the Caribbean island Santa Marina and his family and their friends have led to the need for round the clock protection. Daphne is the daughter of the governor-general, which means the killers are probably on board too. Ford accepts Carly's modeling job even as he feels she is just a spoiled rich woman. However, as the threats to Carly and Daphne turn real, Ford reassesses his opinion of her while they fall in love.GOING OVERBOARD is an entertaining romantic suspense romp that never slows down. The story line is filled with action and amusing encounters between Ford and Carly, a warm couple that the audience will adore. The return of a secondary player from a previous novel adds to the enjoyment of the audience. Christina Skye has written another winner.Harriet Klausner
