Air Bound (Sea Haven, #3)

by Christine Feehan

For as far back as she can remember, Airiana Ridell has always been aware of her extraordinary gift. She can intuit revealing and illuminating 'patterns' in the air around her-whether in a spray of mist, in billowing clouds, or in the dense swirls of an impenetrable fog. Her abilities led to her placement in a secret government training facility when she was a child, but everything changed after her mother was murdered.

Airiana fled the program, but she couldn't outrun the desperate members of a shadowy cabal who want her, who need her, who will kill to get her. Kidnapped and held aboard a ship bound for dangerous seas, her only chance for rescue is Maxim Prakenskii. He has his reasons for helping her, but he isn't about to reveal them to Airiana. Not yet. Not as the two are drawn together as moth to flame. Not when there are so many secrets yet untold that could shatter the quaint community of Sea Haven and all who reside there . . .

Sea Haven, how happy I was to be back in Sea Haven, I had been waiting for the next book in this series for a long time. I was so happy when I saw Air Bound was available. I love Airiana, she’s strong and confident and a great heroine, even if she does come to love and trust Maxim Prakenskii really fast. Though since there is a bit of a fated mate’s aspect I overlooked and let some of that quick love and trust go.

This story is full of action, and a lot of death, but at its core it’s a beautiful love story. Airiana sees Maxim for them man he truly is and not the man he shows the world, and Maxim does his best to protect and love Airiana.

I enjoyed that even though it’s been awhile since I read the others in the series, and some of the events from that spilled over, that the author did a good job of reminding and introducing me to those events again, so that I could easily pick it back up again. I think this allows the story to be read as a standalone if necessary, though I did enjoy the first two in the series and would recommend them too.

Overall, I really enjoyed and recommend this story, it has magic, action and enough intrigue to keep you guessing and the story hopping and moving forward.
