Book Description:
New York Times bestselling author Karen Harper takes readers into the eye of the storm, where two parents fight to rescue their children from the overwhelming menace of a hurricane.
With lashing rain and brutal winds bearing down on them, residents of southwest Florida prepare for evacuation. But Julie Minton cannot leave. Her fourteen-year-old daughter, Randi, left home earlier that morning to go out on a Jet Ski with Thad Brockman, a boy Julie barely knows. Now Randi and Thad are missing -- and the hurricane that hours ago was just another routine warning has turned toward shore.
With local law enforcement absorbed in emergency response measures, Julie has only the help of Zack Brockman, Thad's father. Together they begin a race against time to find their children -- but first they must battle not only Mother Nature, but an enemy willing to use the danger and devastation of the storm for their own evil ends.

Took me a while to get into this one--maybe I couldn't connect with the whole hurricane thing since I live in earthquake country (?) but once it got on a roll, I really enjoyed the story and found I couldn't put it down. Kept me guessing until the end (well--almost). Good. fast-paced summer read (especially if you live in Florida--if you don't, skip the little annoying weather reports at the beginning of every chapter, like I did).

2nd book I have read of hers. She is a good author.
April D. (Enjoyed it. Very fast paced. The chapters are short and the story moves along very quickly. Full of suspense with just a hint of romance. Not too sappy like other romance/suspense stories.
