This started out slow and was a bit silly and confusing for the first 100 pages or so. I considered giving up on it but I am glad I stuck with it and gave it a chance. This is a very entertaining read with Hope's sarcasm and wit and a roller coaster ride of ups and downs. Just when it seems their plans are going well, they find themselves in danger and situations that seem hopeless, until they get some help from unexpected sources. This is the first book of the series and I look forward to starting the sequel tomorrow.

Gerard's review (5+ stars, 9/6/17):
Hope Walton is at her mom's funeral and if that isn't bad enough, now her dad wants to send her to Scotland to live with an aunt she never met while he goes on vacation with another woman! When Hope gets to Scotland, she finds some news that will send her on the adventure of her life!
Teaser from page 42: My jeans wicked up the frigid water as I splashed through the shallows toward him. His head lay cocked at an angle that hid his face.
The start of this book was kind of slow and I had a hard time getting into it; however, then it came into focus and I really enjoyed it a lot! The main characters are really good and east to root for! There is good action that kept me engaged with a good ending that made me look forward to book, Sparks of Light!
