March 26, 2006: Thea is an independent woman, working with her Uncle she is a partner in their shipping company, Merewether Shipping. Thea meets Drake when his ship docks at the island she lives on. Drake needs a blacksmith to continue on his journey to London. When Thea and Drake meet it is intense for both of them. She has never felt what she feels for Drake. Drake is deeply attracted to Thea's beauty and unconventional behavior. Thea needs to get to London so she asks him to take her. Drake reluctantly agrees, afraid that Thea will find out about his past. Thea is hiding secrets as well though. She longs to see the brother she has never met and she is determined to solve the mystery of the funds being pilfered from Merewether Shipping. Very quickly Drake finds himself not just desiring Thea, but admiring her as well. With Drake's help Thea begins the quest to help her uncle. In the process she finds a love she was sure she never wanted. I adore Touch Me. Both Thea and Drake are such likeable characters. Drake is honorable, handsome and charming. Thea?s innocence and intelligence make her endearing. I was completely taken with Touch Me. It has mystery, passion and romance. I really enjoyed reading each chapter?s journal entry from Thea?s mother as they enhanced the story. The epilogue brought the story full circle and gave it a wonderful feeling of rightness and completion. Touch Me is a heart warming story, one that you will be so glad you read.
