Kit Baldwin is strong, stubborn and a little reckless, but she knows what she wants. She wants the treasure, the one she believes is resting beneath the waves off a tropical Caribbean island. Years of research have led her to this defining moment in her life and she won't allow anything or anyone to stand in her way, including Mike Peterson, the attractive dive shop owner that immediately vies for her attention. Surrounded by an intriguing cast of characters, Kit begins the journey she has been planning for years. Her fate has always been in her own hands, but now she is faced with the reality that she may need to let down her guard and trust those around her.
The Treasure is one of those "can't put it down" type of books. As a diver, I am always looking for a good book that revolves around scuba diving. The Treasure is an adventure in the tropics with enough romance to intrigue but not so much that it takes away from the treasure hunt. The author has a way of bringing to life the way of the tropics, from underwater scenes to happy hour at the local bar. Once I started this book, I couldn't put it down! I think divers and non-divers alike would enjoy this trip to tropics.
My Personal Opinion
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
The Treasure was one of the best books I have read in a long time. It was an exciting, interesting, and romantic story. I honestly could not put the book down - I HAD to find out "what was going to happen next" with each chapter. Reading this book not only gave me some enjoyable down time from my children, it also opened my eyes and taught me about something I knew very little about - scuba diving. I can attest to the fact that I am to chicken to ever do it, but I thoroughly enjoyed living vicariously through the main character's adventures! I can't wait to read another book by Kathleen Harrison!
