Smuggler's Cover - Fern Michaels
Pub. Date: Aug. 26, 2025
This is the premiere of Fern Michaels’ new Twin Lights series. The privileged lives of Madison and Lincoln Taylor are upended when they are in college; their father is arrested for fraud and the family loses everything. Now adults living in New York with successful careers, they inherit a derelict marina along the Navesink River in New Jersey from their estranged uncle. When their desire to sell it quickly is thwarted by the discovery of a dead body floating under a dock as well as some legal issues, they decide to renovate and operate it as a business. Will this lead to new adventures and rewards for them?
Although this is labeled as a thriller, I believe it is more women’s fiction with some romance and a mystery. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the background history of these two characters. Fern Michaels is a skilled storyteller, and I couldn’t put the book down. Despite the siblings’ hardships, this was a heartwarming story.
This is the first book by this author that I’ve read, and I was initially unsure if her writing style would resonate with me. However, this was a great introduction to the series, and I cannot wait for the next installment.
Now’s your chance to get in on the ground floor of what appears to be a charming new series.
Thanks to #NetGalley and @KensingtonBooks for the DRC.
