5.0 out of 5 stars
Finally Hannah and Jonas Story,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Safe Harbor (Drake Sisters, Book 5) (Mass Market Paperback)
I have waited for this book while we learned the stories of the first four sisters and this one is everything that I hoped it would be. Better than most of the others it is truly not just a romance but a tale of strengh, hope, and mystery.
Hannah is the #1 model in the world, not because she has ever wanted to be a model, but because she has felt the need to find something she does as well as the other sisters. Jonas Harrington is not just sheriff of her hometown he has been in covert operations for our government until he became so burned out he came home to the Drakes. They are his family and have been since he was a child. He and Jackson have accepted one more small assignment that goes very wrong. This time when he finally gets home he tells Hannah his feelings and she opens her heart and body to him. At the next fashion show she is attacked. He is totally wiped out by the attack on Hannah. He immediatly sets out to find who tried to kill her, the list is long and another attack on her happens at the hospital. Knowing there is a physcopath out there after her he is in full protective mode. I very much enjoyed this book and could hardly put it down when I had too. The action is continuous and the interaction with the sisters is wonderful. You know there will be two more books, and I can hardly wait. Christine Feehan has grown as an author and her skills as a writer are improving with each of the novels in the Drake Sister and Ghostwalker series.

Hannah and Jonas' exciting and touching story at last!,

This review is from: Safe Harbor (Drake Sisters, Book 5) (Mass Market Paperback)
As I've been reading the Drake sisters books, I've been amused and puzzled by the interaction between Jonas Harrington, long-time Drake family friend, and Hannah, super beautiful, super model. Sometimes there was antagonism, sometimes sentiment and sometimes sparks. This book puts it all together and gives us the inside story in a way we might not have imagined!
The story begins with Jonas and Jackson Deveau out on a special covert assignment for the defense department that goes south. Jonas has been shot and they are trying to escape the Russian mob led by the Tarasov family. Joans mentally calls on Hannah to help them as they are trapped in an alleyway with no way out but up. Hannah calls wind, rain and is successfully in helping Jonas and Jackson escape although Jonas passes out. He comes to in a nearby ER with a doctor stitching his wounds and Jackson coming in to tell him the mob has sent more people after them and the film they made so they need to leave out the window and draw them away from the innocent people in the hospital. They leave in a hurry, call their supervisor, Duncan for help, and then need to hide out for a few days. Hannah meanwhile is furious when she recovers from her magical efforts to save Jonas that a)he was endangering his life again when still recovering from a nearly mortal wound of a few weeks ago (read prior book "Dangerous Tides") and b) that Jonas never called to let her know he is okay or not. When Jonas finally does come to see Hannah, the sparks really do fly!! As Hannah's life is threatened and Jonas reveals his true feelings, I could not put this book down until I finished it!! A truly exciting and suspenseful as well as sentimental and romantic story. The reader also gets better acquainted with another intriguing character, Illya Prakenskii, who is magical like the Drakes. I can't wait for the next installment!! Highly recommended as one of the best Drake books yet!!

Disappointing. I'd rate it at 3 1/2 if I could....,

This review is from: Safe Harbor (Drake Sisters, Book 5) (Mass Market Paperback)
Safe Harbor starts off with a bang but almost all of the action and conflict occur in the first third of the book. It felt almost like I started in the middle of a book, like I was missing something despite the fact that I've read all of the books several times. After the first third or so, both the relationship and the suspense plot stalled several times which made it a bit boring.
The interaction between Jonas and Hannah in other books has been like a lively rivalry but this book just didn't show the characters or the relationship and tension as seen previously. In fact, I didn't like Jonas or Hannah in this book. Jonas, in particular, wasn't the character I feel like we were introduced to previously. He actually resembled the Norton twins from her Ghostwalker series to me. Also, there are several scenes & elements that are almost the same as scenes from the two most recent Ghostwalker books with only a few sentences added here and there. Overall, I just felt like Safe Harbor was a big let-down with the exception of the the interaction between Joley and Ilya (who is obviously her mate). It's worth reading because it's part of the series but it's just not great.
