This is one of my favorite Nora Roberts books (and series). And so far my favorite of this Trilogy. The first was good, but I truly loved Annika and Sawyers story. Delighted as I am, I just wish I could use the compass to transport myself to December to read the next book. Awaiting it with bated breath.

Everything you expect from Nora Roberts. Loved the story but I kept thinking that the circle trilogy was way better. Still I loved the book can't wait to hear Doyle and Riley's story

By far the best book I've ever read. I'm going to go back and read the first one again and re-read this one. I spent the last 24 hours reading this straight through! I could not put it down! Now I have to wait until December to know Doyle and Riley's stories!! I wish I was a time traveler so I could shift to December! Lol

The story of traveler Sawyer and mermaid Annika is the second book of the Guardians trilogy...not having read the first book, and a huge Nora Roberts fan, I took a chance on reading this book first...I am certainly glad I did so. It took a couple of chapters to catch up with the story from the first book...Ms Roberts does a fine job with providing the backstory...and I settled in for a wonderful read. I thoroughly enjoyed the mythology aspect of the book, and when put together with the rest of the love and conflict, the story took hold and kept me engaged until the cliffhanger ending. I am now looking forward to reading the third book in the trilogy...as well as catching up by reading the first book. Whether writing as Nora Roberts or J D Robb, I am always captivated by this author's style...she never disappoints. This book was provided by Netgalley for my honest review.
