Rainsquall by Penny Moss


This was quite a unique and unexpected story full of surprises and learning to cope with loss.


From the Rainsquall blurb:

Lone shepherd Folke is content to drift through life without the hassle of others. Yet his quiet days come to a thunderous end when a storm forces three enigmatic men to seek refuge in his secluded cottage.

Suddenly, Folke’s world is crowded with all the things he worked to avoid, while opening up to many alluring possibilities. Warm skin, shared breaths, and the caress of lips beguile him into what he knows will lead to heartbreak. Each day he grows closer to the men is another day until their inevitable departure—and to secrets that could change all he knows.


Angel's review:

I don't typically read historical romances as its usually difficult for me to get invested in the story, but this one was different. It held me captive with its well written prose, and intriguing plot line. Not to mention the characters themselves that made things even more interesting.

Folke lives on his own and doesn't care much about other people, his sheep are the only things he cares about anymore. When three military men stumble upon his house in the middle of a bad storm he reluctantly lets them stay, and that is where their story truly begins.

Folke is such a grumpy man, he's jaded and gruff, but under that exterior he cares deeply once he gets to know someone. He may have a gruff attitude but he's a softie inside, especially when it comes to Darach and Finley.

Darach and Finley were interesting characters, they bring a lot to this story. They add an extra layer of depth to the story along with surprising elements to the plot, and they also provide witty banter and an unconventional romance.

I liked how this story flowed, and I really enjoyed the paranormal aspect, I thought it was unique and was handled and described well! My only critique is the romance between Folke, Darach, and Finley is primarily focused on the spicy steamy moments in and out of the bedroom. I just wish there was more romance to their relationship instead of all the spice, I don't think all of the spicy scenes were necessary. Despite that though I did really enjoy this, it was different than what I normally read which was quite refreshing!
