Underwater Mystery

Another great book of Colleen Coble's. As the title indicates, there is danger in the depths of the sea - and truly she captured that danger. There were times I could almost feel the agony of the characters and wanted desparately to go to their aid. Love her work.

A passionate novel of adventure and love.

Dangerous Depths a Fast Read

Dangerous Depths is Colleen Coble's third installment in the Aloha Reef series. In it she focuses on the oldest Oana sibling, Bane. He has been a rock in the first two books, and in this one you see why. He doesn't know how to not try to control events around him. But from the moment his plane dives into the ocean, the events in the book rocket out of his control. Leia Kahale turned her back on traditional medicine to embrace homeopathic, holistic medicine, a decision her mother won't accept. She broke off her engagement with Bane, but finds him back in her life -- a situation she is not comfortable with. Bane has returned to help a friend find a sunken ship rumored to be filled with treasure. When his partner dies, Bane and Leia work together to find answers. The interactions and conflicts between them rang true. Each had reasons for the ways they responded to the events. Colleen paints amazing pictures of Hawaii in this book. As I read it, I could almost feel the tradewinds on my face and the stifling heat in the jungle. Her attention to detail transforms the setting into an active part of the plot. While this is the third book in the series, you don't need to have read the previous books to understand and fully enjoy this one.

Well done!

Dangerous Depths is a well written book. The plot and characters are believable in that it is could have really happened. The story line moves along smoothly and keeps you on the edge of your seat in anticipation of what's going to happen next. A must read!

The anticipation was worth the wait

Nothing makes me happier than to see a favorite author come out with a new book and Colleen Coble certainly falls into this category. This third book in the Aloha Reef series is a twisting, intriguing romantic suspense that will leave you guessing at every turn what's going to happen. The story of Bane and Leia will alternately make you smile and want to shake them. Set against the beautiful island of Moloka'i, Coble handles the subject of Hansen's disease with grace and sensitivy. Coble has already proven her mastery of characterization and setting but Dangerous Depths is her best effort yet. I highly encourage long time time fans and first time readers to pick up this book. You won't be disappointed with this latest offering. For myself I can't wait to see what Colleen comes up with next. It's a guaranteed read into the small hours for sure.
