THIS BOOK MOVES!

This book did remind me of a Grisham novel with one exception. This book moves!! After the first few chapters, it takes off with action and supsense causing you to intially try to guess whats going to happen next. The only problem with guessing what is coming next--there is always something that comes up which capsizes your ideas. I like the business environment that the book takes on (mergers, acquisitions...etc.) which gives it a Grisham touch, but the action soars literally with Jake's plane ride down south (the main character). I loved the details given about different settings such as the workings of Jake's plane's engine, sailing on expensive luxury yachts, business transactions, exotic island villas with romantic ocean breezes...etc. Little tidbit details like that add to the storyline and set the mood for the book. The story takes you to different islands and the setting is always changing which enhances the mystery as the plot builds. I must say that the main character doesnt have much luck in holding on to his female characters in the book. But I did like the one that he ended up with in the end. [...] I am eagerly looking forward to the author's next book. I find myself already guessing which characters, if any, will be carried into the next book; but then I realize that no matter what I think, the author will surprise me once again.

A Great Gift-A Great Read

If you count mystery lovers among your friends, this will make a great surprise treat. Warren has penned a fast-moving page turner that will please even the most die-hard fans of Clancy, Grisham, and the like. It will have special appeal for folks with ties to North Carolina and Philadelphia or to corporate mergers and acquisitions, but it will dazzle any serious mystery reader. If you want to be the one to introduce a friend to a new and talented author, this book is it. At a time when we can all use a literary escape, Storm Keeper provides top-notch entertainment...and a few surprise life lessons as well.

A book I just couldn't put down Sex, Greed, Big Business

This is the story of Jake Turner and his dealings with Megers and Aquisition. Yet as his Philadelphia dealings lead him to North Carolina, the truth comes out about the type of people he is dealing with. He begins to learn what he believe is the truth about this deal, yet a brewing hurricane is bringing more than rain and wind with it. You pick this one up and you may be reading the first book by an author who I easily can compare to Grisham or Clancy. If you are looking for a book for that person on your lists who thinks everything else is too slow, then STORM KEEPR is the book for them.

Keeps You Guessing!

This book made me laugh, cry, gasp, ponder, and kept me on the edge of my seat. The protagonist is a believable character who is as unlucky at choosing women as he is with business associates. The author's definitions of the title at the beginning grab your attention and set the mood for the entire book. The first few chapters set a fast pace and put you on the protagonist's team. As he faces hardships, disappointments, and crises (some of the "storms"), you will be routing for him. Although I routinely can predict the plots of many movies/novels, Storm Keeper has many unexpected twists as the story and the characters develop, right up to the last chapter. The scene of Jake's farewell to Kristina was especially moving, and the introduction of new characters throughout the book adds depth to the storyline. Once I started reading, I didn't want to stop and I am anxiously awaiting the author's next novel.
