I enjoyed reading this book.  I thought the story was interesting, and I liked how it began with the shipwreck!  However, I also felt like there was something missing from the book.  I wanted more dialogue between Mariah and Thomas, to understand why Thomas liked her so much, and not just because he rescued her from the shipwreck and had seen her sopping wet with her top torn.  The readers knew Mariah was a good person, as we are privy to her inner thoughts, but how did Thomas know that?  And how did he never question her convict status?  I'm a big fan of epilogues, and I think this one needed it.  Mariah had unfinished business in Ireland; what happened to the sister who was waiting for her?  I felt like there should've been more.  I know the Prologue gave a glimpse of their future, but by the end of the book, I had forgotten it, and didn't think I should have to go back and read it again.  Overall, I thought this was a good book and I would read more by this author.  *I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.*
