Water Bound (A Sea Haven Novel) [Mass Market Paperback]

I've finished "Water Bound" the 1st book in her new Sea Haven series by Christine Feehan.

Product Description

Off the shores of Sea Haven, a beautiful diver rescues a man from drowning, a man with no memory of who he is - or why he seems to possess the violent instincts of a trained killer. But soon, he and his savior will be engulfed in a storm of dizzying passion and inescapable danger ...
 
The last thing Lev Prakenskii remembered was being lost in the swirling currents of the ocean and getting sucked deeper into the nothingness of a freezing black eddy off the coastal town of Sea Haven. Just as quickly, just a miraculously, he was saved—pulled ashore by a beautiful stranger. But Lev has no memory of who he is—or why he seems to possess the violent instincts of a trained killer. All he knows is that he fears for his life, and for the life of his unexpected savior.

Her name is Rikki, a sea~urchin diver in Sea Haven. She has always felt an affinity for the ocean, and for the seductive pull of the tides. And now she feels drawn in the same way to the enigmatic man she rescued. But soon they will be bound by something even stronger, and their tantalizing secrets will engulf them both in a whirlpool of dizzying passion and inescapable danger.

My Review:
 
You learn a secret that Lev has been keeping!
 
I can't wait till Ilya, Jackson and Elle find out he is living in Sea Haven!  I can't wait to see the fireworks!!!!
 
Rikki has an connection to water since it soothes and calms her!  She has a troubled life since her parents were killed in a car accident and people she loves or cares for have been murdered!  She has finally found a home where she can settle down with a group of adopted sisters who have their own unique talents!
 
Lev is man with no past and no identity!  He has done some terrible things for his country (lie, seduce and kill) and they believe he is expandable!  They snatched him away from his family when he was very young and he believes there is no other purpose in life.  When he meets Rikki he wants to stay and love her (he believes she is his one redemption and salvation to start a new life)!
 
When we first meet Lev he doesn't remember who he is or what he is!  He does know he is dangerous and knows things normal people wouldn't!  He slowly regains his memory and I loved how he would nuture Rikki
and understand what she is going through.  He didn't belittle her and would make sure things were made easier for her!
 
Rikki is attracted to Lev but is used to living by herself and is afraid that whoever is after her and people she cares for would also be after him!
 
When Rikki and Lev finally get together it's quite hot and steamy!  Wow were the love scenes very hot and Rikki is very accomodating and loves to practise!
 
5/5
