Drake Sisters Series, Christine Feehan: Review

7 sisters with a secret magical legacy protected by their Sea Haven village and their ancestors home. Feehan knits together a series filled with suspense, family love, romance and lots of passion, and acceptance as each bear their strengths and weaknesses to overcome the battle they face.

Since I have a tendency to fall for the bad boys and strong women who fight against loving them, I thought for sure that Hannah and Jonas’ story or Joley and Ilya’s would be my favorite but later discovered that Elle’s story with Jackson was my favorite.

Hidden Currents was intense and kept me on my toes from the first page all the way to the end with all the drama, action, and suspense the author weaved into the last story in her series. As usual, Feehan’s erotic scenes will leave you breathless and your heart pumping with desire while the love you see between the characters will have you longing for your loved one or wanting one.

Although the books can be read as stand alones, it is still recommended that you read the seven books about the Drake Sisters from oldest to youngest. The books are in the following order:

1. Magic in the Wind is about Sarah Drake (Security) and Damon Wilder (Retired Scientist) [This story can also be found in Lover Beware.]
2. The Twilight Before Christmas is about Kate Drake (Author) and Matt Granite (US Ranger)
3. Oceans of Fire is about Abigal Drake (Marine Biologist) and Aleksandr Volstov (Russian Agent)
4. Dangerous Tides is about Libby Drake (Doctor) and Ty Derrick (Firemen/Genius)
5. Safe Harbor is Hannah Drake (Model) and Jonas Harrington (Sheriff)
6. Turbulent Sea is about Joley Drake (Singer) and Ilya Prakenskii (Russian Bodyguard)
7. Hidden Currents is about Elle Drake (Undercover Agent) and Jackson Deveau (Sheriff).

My results showed me as Sarah & Hannah at 82% for each one…

You are like Sarah Drake, a born leader and the eldest of your family. If there is a crisis people come to you. You have a quick mind and are able to solve extremely difficult problems. You are known for your hacking talents and no computer is safe from you. You are very reliable and considered “the rock” of your family. You are athletic and love to be outdoors. You have a penchant for breaking and entering; locked doors pique your curiosity. Your favorite pastime is curling up with a book by the fire and having a cup of tea. Brainiacs are for you, especially ones who can keep a secret.

Your colors: the colors of air — yellows and greens

You are like Hannah Drake, a true homebody. Your family is your whole world and their happiness is extremely important to you. You are the darling of the family and everyone’s favorite to be around. You believe in an “eye-for-an-eye” revenge when it comes to defending the ones you love. You are extremely beautiful inside and out, but you don’t always recognize your own beauty. You are shy in public, but are the life of the party at home. Your sense of humor often gets you into trouble and you can never resist goodhearted mischief. You are at home in the kitchen and can always be counted on for remembering your loved ones’ favorite dishes. Quick-tempered, bossy men are for you, especially ones who will make you the center of their universe.

Your colors: a spectrum of blue colors
