Shattered Illusions

This has the ingredients of a made for TV movie. I felt this book was light on the Romance but I enjoyed it as the plot unfold to reveal greed as the primary culprit.Delcia Adams is a widow and single mother of a baby she bore for a man out of wedlock who is murdered. Carter Matthews is a Navy SEAL who as the foster brother of the murdered man sets out to find the killer. Delcia is part owner of the camp ground where Carter begins his search into his brother death, Carter reveals to Delcia his reason for being at the camp but because his brother David's relationship with Delcia has caused a rift between she and her father Carter's presence is less than welcomed. Carter finds himself assisting Delcia at the campgrounds and they both began feeling an attraction toward one another but are cautious because of what Delcia and David shared. As Carter continues to investigate his brothers murder Delcia helps him and they give over to the emotions that are building between them. The twist and turns that take them into finding what really happened to David also leads them on a journey of restoration and love that will unite a family for a lifetime. This books wraps a tender love story with major intrigue if heat and passion are what you are expecting this book may not be for you, but if you like a good mystery this one is a thriller.

i enjoyed this book,it was a wonderful story.Delcia and Carter's relationship was tender,loving, and beautiful. the greatest excitement i got out of this book was the mystery and murder of Delcia's baby "DADDY". i have always loved family oriented stories and this one was just that a family story at it's best.reading about the island was nice.little Ranetta was an absolute joy to read about. thank you Ms. Poarch for such a wonderful story. p.s. i hope she creates a story for Ryan,Delcia's brother and David, Carter's adopted brother after all that has happened to him.
