Reviewing IN TOO DEEP by Mary Connealy, Kincaid Brides Book 2

This is the first Mary Connealy book that I have read, and I would highly recommend others to read them 'in order' if they read them at all ... it took until the end of Chapter 2 to figure out what was going on and well into Chapter 4 to understand.  Actually, there for a while, I didn't think it was a "Christian" book! I thought I was reading "Deliverance", [an old OLD secular story I do not recommend]  because of the terms this author used to describe different characters in this book.
   I felt the author didn't make it clear to a new reader who the people were; she cast them in an inaccurate description, or lack thereof so that your first impression of the character was different than what they actually were .  She constantly talked about things unclearly that must have happened in the previous book.   By the end of Chapter 4 and into 5, the story was pretty well coming together and moving on, but I thought the intimate scenes and thoughts were too descriptive and did not add to the story.
   I thought it taught a good moral toward the end that a lot of people could relate to, i.e., God's purpose in apparent disasters and troubles  affect us all and can cause healing if we let His will be done in our lives.  Her scripture quotes toward the end were also beautiful.
   I am guessing that book 3 will be about Seth and his bride that even he didn't remember he had. It was good how she first brought the name of the bride into the story and then picked up briefly on it later.
   I received a free copy of this book for my honest review, from Bethany Publishers.
