Ian Shaw can pretty much buy anything he wants, except the whereabouts of his niece, Esme and Sierra, the woman he loves. And now he finds himself liquidating his assets to pay government fines for a devastating fire they say he's responsible for starting. Sierra Rose still loves Ian in spite of everything that's happened between them, but his obsession to find Esme has totally consumed his life. Sierra knows where Esme is and wants to share that with Ian but has promised Esme she'd keep it secret. When the PEAK chopper is badly damaged during a rescue and there are no funds to repair it, Ian offers his yacht for a three day Caribbean fundraiser excursion. Sierra organizes it and Ian invites his closest friends who he hopes will donate the money to fix the chopper. The excursion turns into a nightmare when a rogue wave hits the yacht and sends everyone overboard. Ian and Sierra find themselves washed up on a deserted island. Will working together to survive bring them closer together? And if they are rescued what will happen when Ian finds out Sierra's kept the truth from him?

Wow! Talk about an edge-of-your-seat-can't-put-it-down story, this one is just that! From the very beginning until it's climatic conclusion you will be glued to the pages. This is the long awaited story of Ian and Sierra and it does not disappoint. At the same time, you have the Pete and Jess story continuing on as well. Two stories for the price of one. I love that! Be prepared for emotional ups and downs but with that you'll also get some great nuggets of spiritual wisdom and encouragement. I like that you see all the familiar friends you've come to know from the previous books. To me, that makes the story much more endearing. Along with the emotional ups and downs, you'll encounter action, suspense and some heart-stopping moments. If you can ride out the âTroubled Waters' you are in for a real treat at the end. Although this has a conclusion it sets the stage for the next story (Storm Front) which I can't wait to dive into. I highly recommend not only this book but the whole series. I recommend you read them in order though because, although each book can stand alone, there is certain parts of the story that carry from one book to the next.

Some favorite quotes:

âIf I didn't know that God had my back, I'd be a basket caseâ

âOur team chaplain told me to count it a gift when God is my only option, andâ¦he's right. I decided to refuse to believe anything but that God is good and he loves me. Doesn't mean life isn't insane sometimes, but I'm not in this alone.â

âLove isn't about how she makes you feel. It's about giving of yourself to her. And doing what's best for her.â

âYour worth to God has nothing to do with your actions. He loves you because he wants to Because he chooses to.â
