Deep Blue Secrets ( The Water Keepers book 1)
By Christie Anderson
California teen Sadie James thinks her life couldn't get any better. She has great friends, an energetic mother she adores, and the beach practically in her own backyard. But her carefree life is turned upside down when she's rescued by a mysterious and strangely familiar boy who won't even tell her his name. Each time the boy appears, Sadie's unexplainable attraction to him deepens along with her need to unravel his secrets. The boy is there to protect her. But as wonderful and exciting as it might be to have an irresistible boy with crystal green eyes protecting her every move, every minute of the day . . . why does Sadie need one? As Sadie finds answers, she realizes her life isn't as perfect as she thought. Not only is she caught in a world of dangerous secret agents she never knew existed, but it turns out her true identity may be the greatest secret of all.
So I was in between a 3.5 and 4 stars for this. For a young adult it was well written flowed really nicely and had a new story to spin. The concept was really interesting and I’m looking forward to reading more. It was an easy enjoyable read also a new author for me.

Ridge is coping with life, but he's certainly not living it. He doesn't know if he will ever feel 'normal' again as he tries to cope with his dad's death. He is going through the motions of living, whilst feeling very disjointed. Micah is the only one who seems to break through Ridge's barriers, and not in a good way to begin with. Ridge finds him irritating and annoying, but Micah persists. The friendship that grows between these two is gorgeous to read about, as well as Ridge's meanderings on where the friendship is going, and his growing feelings towards Micah.
I thought this was incredibly well-written, powerful and yet delicate enough when dealing with Ridge's confusion over his feelings. The ending? Wow, that one walloped me! I completely 5683 this book and will be on the lookout for more from this author. Totally blew me away! Highly recommended.

Nivian has been doing her job for years with no problems when she suddenly starts noticing a man there each time. What is worse is that he seems to notice her too, which should be impossible. Then Reapers start disappearing, and the common link is that man that Nivian keeps seeing. Following conversations with Caspian (her boss... sort of) she finds out just who and what he is. Things are not always black and white though, and both Kain and Nivian have choices to make.
There were parts to this story that I absolutely loved, and parts not so much. I am not a fan of the triangle, even a version like this one. It builds up to a climactic ending where you will need to keep your wits about you as you move swiftly from one scene to another.
If you want a clean Paranormal that has a brilliant take on reapers, old man time, scythes, etc, then I can recommend this.

This is a fast-paced, well-written book, with a romance that is a slow burner. They actually know each other from the past, but take time to know each in the now before anything happens. The difference between how a dragon thinks and how a human does is clearly demonstrated.
Recommended for all fans of adult dragon stories, with an intriguing world that continues to excite and thrill with each book.
