Book Review of --
Season, Unforgettable
by Keta Diablo
Overall star rating
--- 4-1/2
About the book:
Season Scrimshaw isn't
selling the land her parents left her when they died, not even to the gorgeous
Rann Brogan who saved her life in the forest. Especially not after she finds
out he was in the woods to survey her property.
The company Rann works
for, his mother's company, wants the land for a luxury condo development and
they want it bad. He never dreamed they'd go to such extreme lengths to get it.
Lives spiral out of
control, lies and betrayal play center stage. Caught in the middle between his
rich and powerful mother and the woman he loves, Rann discovers love is
complicated...and sometimes lethal.

The review --
*****This review
contains spoilers*****
To start with, the
cover isn't very telling about this story. It doesn't give the reader any idea
of what to expect at all, which is something I don't really like with books.
The story is the land developer vs. land owner conflict in the background, but really,
the main Male and Female leads are really in focus. There is instant attraction
between Season and Rann right off the bat, which is quickly complicated when
she finds out he was surveying her land when they met. As for Rann, after
encountering Season, his world and perspectives changed. Whatever he was
feeling about his job and life before, are completely changed to support
Season's side. In short, the man has it bad for her. Season is more conflicted,
she is attracted heavily as well, but fights it as she sees him as "the
enemy" trying to take her land.
As the misunderstandings get cleared up, Rann
works on both her and her beloved Grandfather, working into their hearts,
although Season has a far bigger sense of distrust to overcome than her
Grandfather. Just as it looks like we are heading for the HEA, sudden and
terrible disaster strikes, shaking every single character's world in the book.
It almost looks like the book will end sadly, but the author turns it around at
the end and we all get the HEA we were hoping for.
I was nervous
throughout the better part of this book, since both Season and Rann were
clearly the good guys; we didn't really see the antagonist of the story until
they make their move. There is some conversations with Rann and his
Business-owning mother that hint at trouble, but when disaster strikes, it hits
hard and no character sees it coming. The antagonist in the story, sadly for
the main characters, is smart as they are bad, so the plan nearly succeeds far
too well.
Overall, I liked the
story very much, enjoyed the ending, and I hope the author does another story
in this world with the Matt and Bernadette's story.
