With a fulfilling career and satisfying relationship, she has convinced everyone, including herself, that her life is just as she wants it to be. But one night, Marian answers a knock on the door ... only to find Kirby Rose, an 18-year-old girl with a key to a past that Marian thought she had sealed off forever. From the moment Kirby appears on her doorstep, Marian’s perfectly constructed world - and her very identity - will be shaken to its core.

I just enjoyed this book for the third time. Each time a little more! So much to relate to, but also so much to think about and wish for.

Good book for a long trip
Reviewed: 12-08-12
Would you listen to The Beach Trees again? Why?
I enjoyed this book while on a long car trip. The long story was a perfect match to the long journey.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Beach Trees?
The discriptions of the storm damage were so real I felt like I too was there.
What aspect of Ki Gottberg and Gin Hammond ’s performance would you have changed?
The accents didn't ring quite true.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
not really one moment, just the developement of the people.
Any additional comments?
I would not recomend this book to anyone in a hurry, you need to just enjoy the slow reveal

Story
Rumor said the powerful Nicolai DeMarco could command the heavens, that the beasts below did his bidding... and that he was doomed to destroy the woman he took as wife. It was whispered he was not wholly human - as untamed as his tawny mane and slashing amber eyes. Impoverished aristocrat Isabella Vernaducci would defy death itself to rescue her imprisoned brother. She’d even brave the haunted, accursed lair of the lion - the menacing palace of legendary, lethal Don Nicolai DeMarco.

Narration is annoying.

Strong hero, no way a wimp is more like it.

What disappointed you about Lair of the Lion?
The "Lion" is a complete wimp, every scene he is either hiding or wimpering. Chritine Feehan had created an amazing read in the Lepard series, I was expecting that kind of male lead.
What was most disappointing about Christine Feehan’s story?
The discriptions are lengthy but vague, pages and pages of discription all lead up to no clear storyline. Just didn't care about the characters.
What didn’t you like about Abby Craden’s performance?
All her males seem like wimps. Everyone seemed confused.
Any additional comments?
Really disapointed, Feehan writes a good story, but this is not nearly her best. Maybe it would help if I had read it myself, It wouldn't have been so drawn out. If this was the first book had read of hers, I would never pick up another.
