Ratings and reviews

To be fair, the story was good, but it could've been better. The characters were likable, especially Aidan. How the story ends is why I had mixed feelings. A recommended book for anyone interested in a slow romance story. It's not for me, but I'd enjoyed it.

I thought this was a very good read. I have read Oceans Trial and Oceans Justice. I found all of these books to be hard to put down as I wanted to see what would happen next. I truly enjoyed all 3 books and would say many others will as well. I am a new fan of Demelza Carlton.

I got completely lost in this story! What a wonderful read. I would have liked the ending to be different but it took me by surprise, not how I thought it would end. More please!!!

About the author

USA Today bestselling author Demelza Carlton has always loved the ocean, but on her first snorkelling trip she found she was afraid of fish.
She has since swum with sea lions, sharks and sea cucumbers and stood on spray-drenched cliffs over a seething sea as a seven-metre cyclonic swell surged in, shattering a shipwreck below.
Sensationalist spin? No - Demelza tends to take a camera with her so she can capture and share the moment later; shipwrecks, sharks and all.
Demelza now lives in Perth, Western Australia, the shark attack capital of the world.
