Some detours are worth the
trouble…
About the Book: Falsely
accused of wrongdoing at a Princeton Prep school, Sophie Kearns accepts a
temporary teaching position at an environmental school in the Florida Keys to
wait out her suspension. The time away is meant to be an anxiety-free escape,
but her clashes with the hot but arrogant marine biology teacher, Max Heaton,
are anything but tranquil.
Max is determined to start an
environmental research institute at the school, but he suspects the gorgeous new
Lit teacher, who lacks even the most basic outdoor skills, is there to hinder
that dream. Yet, something about her tames the demons from his past, and he can
no longer ignore the fire she’s lit inside him.
Our Review: Known for her ability to write
snappy, evocative dialogue as well as descriptions of settings that literally
jump off the page, author Imbalzano does not disappoint with Island Detour.
The classic trope of opposites attract starts singing the moment Sophie and Max
first meet, then the heat just keeps on coming. Plus, the underlying subplot of
professional subterfuge keeps the reader turning the pages. Well done!
Based on a scale of 1-5. Island Detour merits
a 7.
