At the extreme tip of South America, Staten Island has piercing Antarctic winds, lonely coasts assaulted by breakers, and sailors lost as their vessels smash on the dark rocks. Now that civilization dares to rule here, a lighthouse penetrates the last and wildest place of all. But Vasquez, the guardian of the sacred light, has not reckoned with the vicious, desperate Kongre gang, who murder his two friends and force him out into the wilderness. Alone, without resources, can he foil their cruel plans? A gripping tale of passion and perseverance, Verne's testament novel paints a compelling picture of intrigue and heroism, schemes and calamities. The master storyteller returns here to the theme of civilization against its two oldest enemies: pitiless nature and men's savagery.Binding Type: Paperback

Sizzling
Format: Kindle
This book has some of the hottest sex scenes I’ve read, and I’ve read a few. The beauty of it is that they were not gratuitous, or ill placed. It all worked because the characters were well developed and believable. I didn’t think stranded on a desert island could be hot and sex for all of the practical reasons you can think of. The talent of the writing is that it extends beyond that to closeness, fear, companionship in a way that rounds the storyline out. The road isn’t easy for the MCs and that makes for an exciting read. I didn’t give five stars for the copious grammar and editing errors. Also, the author had me invested hook, line, and sinker but then rushed the ending. The grand gesture is made less grand by the choppy scene that preceded it. It spoiled what could have been an extremely romantic ending.

Another winner!
Format: Kindle
This is the 3rd book that I've read by this author, & everyone of them scored a 5 star review. The only negative on this book, is that the ending seemed rather abrupt. Hopefully, there will be a continuation of this story.
