I loved that in Book 2 of the Madrona Island Series I could see the island from a different character's point of view (which means you can read this book first in the series and then go back to the first), but still keep up on the other characters' development. More than that, I really related to Kyla's conflict as she fought between her instinct to run or fully accepting things--and herself--as they were.
