Lisa (lisaw23) | 2 comments I completely disagree with the above poster. I wonder if people were expecting the book to be just like Eversea? It wouldn't be right to limit the author to only one style of book/writing. I, personally, LOVED this book! It will stick with me, and I will re-read it over and over again. I will buy the paperback for my bookshelf. I loved the Eversea series, but I felt that Deep Blue Eternity was the author's best work to date! The story was very compelling, totally grabbed me, and was difficult to put down for me!

I loved the main characters and felt everything with them as they tried to find healing and hope through their past tragedies. Loved the secondary characters, Marjoe and Pete!!


Alan (al_chaput) | 1 comments I thoroughly enjoyed "Deep Blue Eternity" and have posted a review of it. Boyd is a masterful writer and this is her finest book so far.


Julie | 6 comments I couldn’t put this book down, from the beginning I was hooked with Liv and Tom Story. Watching these two damaged & lost souls, help he other regain their hope and happiness, it was absolutely beautiful. I have fallen in love with the author’s writing style during Eversea, the way she writes her secondary characters, you become just as invested in their lives as you are with the main characters. I also agree that Deep Blue Eternity is author’s best work to date, this book brought me to tears


Karina I absolutely loved this book. I definitely think it is the author's best work so far. I loved the Eversea books too, but Deep Blue Eternity just goes way deeper. I've read it three times now! I totally agree with Lisa - an author can and should write in different styles if they wish. And I'm so glad Natasha Boyd followed these characters and discovered their story, because it is heartbreakingly beautiful!

I really enjoyed this book. It's the first I have read by Natasha. I too couldn't put it down. I felt it was lovely heartfelt moving story. Loved both Olivia and Tom and did I feel for them both. I liked that within the first few chapters I had questions, I was intrigued and I need the answers, so it made me want to read more. I like the suspense aspect it wasn't about guessing who Tom was, more about wanting to know why he was there, and what happened that night.

There was a point where I wonder if there was going to be a cliffhanger, after Tom left and when Cal turned up....but I'm glad there wasn't. Then towards the end I wondered if there was going to be a book two and would it tell the story of Olivia and Tom returning home! But after reading Olivia's letter to Abby I knew that there may not be. I say may....only because, I think if Natasha wanted to she could write it she could. I do like the way it ends, It wasn't an easy journey, but Olivia and Tom have come out the other side stronger and found the love they both deserve.

A great read.


Marilyn | 25 comments I really enjoyed this story as well. It was a nice change from your average "insta-love" situation. Liv and Tom grew on one another. I love how Tom didnt excuse Liv's behavior regarding her views on sex and getting what she wants. It just made him that more believable. This is my first read from this author, but I'll be reading more.
