REVIEW ~ UNDERTOW BY K.R. CONWAY
Seventeen-year-old Eila Walker’s new home has defied the brutal Atlantic for over 160 years. Abandoned since her 4th great grandmother Elizabeth vanished, the town legend declares that she drowned . . . or was struck by lightning.
Unbeknownst to the town and Eila, however, is that someone does know what really happened to Elizabeth, and he has
returned, determined to protect the last surviving Walker from a history of violence.
But what starts out as a quest for redemption, evolves into something more and soon young guardian, Raef, is forced to reveal the truth to Eila. As hidden secrets about their warring
families come to light, Eila begins to realize that she may be their best shot at survival, even if it means following in her grandmother’s fearless footsteps to save her killer bodyguard.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Trust me when I say that this a story like no other. K.R. Conway introduces us to a whole new breed of supernatural creatures here. They are kind of descendants of angels but still way different then others that already excist.
Eila and Raef are drawn to one another but fight like crazy against the attraction. Will they give in or will they give up? Only time will tell.
This is a story packed with adventure and will always let you wonder what'll happen next.
I must admit Eila was one stubbborn pain in the .... at the beginning! But with time she grew on me as where the other characters. MJ was one funny and very loveable character!
That ending?!!! Come on... Seriously - Just give in already! ;-) Can't wait for the next book!
