Take My Breath Away is the fifth Meg O'Brien book I've read and the author continues to amaze me. Her writing is both intelligently crafted and full of suspense. I loved the way she weaved historical fact throughout a modern plot. The heroine is brave, but in a vulnerable sort of way, making me want to cheer her on every step of the way.
Hardback version.... Taken from the inside flap: "He watches her from across a crowded room. But is this handsome stranger trying to turn Kate's stay in Hawaii into a romantic idyll for two, or is he after something else entirely? From the moment Kate meets Dan, her world is turned upside down. She thinks that someone is following her. Is it Dan? Or is she suffering "mental lapses" as another man accused her of years ago?"
