MY REVIEW

4 of 5 stars

This is the first Nicole Hart book that I read and I really enjoyed it! The characters were equally stimulating and the story had a pull that had me reading this book in one sitting. The Hurricane was a hot, fast-paced, and exhilarating read! 

Meeting twelve years ago on spring break, Ryker and Natalie shared a passionate encounter that left the two of them hanging when it had to end. Now twelve years later, the pent-up fire between them was finally ignited and this time, there was no turning back. But what is passion without trust? What is love without sacrifices? Ryker and Natalie will both find out that the real strength of love is not when you fight for the other but when you fight together. 

This one started a bit too fast-paced for me, but it simmered out in the middle. The plot was concise and the characters were developed which made the book easy to read and enjoy. It was a fun and steamy read, highly stimulating and there was even a bonus of cuteness in it. The Hurricane is a total package for me, given how short it is. There’s steam, romance, fun, cuteness, and a tinge of drama that I think sums up everything a romance reader seeks!
