Summary

This gripping novel from USA TODAY bestselling romantic suspense author Colleen Coble will leave you on the edge of your seat until the very last page。

A wealthy hotel heiress。

Even though Torie Bergstrom hasn’t been back to Georgia since she was ten， she’s happy to arrange a job for her best friend at one of the family properties on Jekyll Island。

A suspicious death。

But when Torie learns that her best friend has drowned， she knows it is more than a tragic accident: Lisbeth was terrified of water and wouldn’t have gone swimming by choice。

A fight for the truth。

Torie goes to the hotel under an alias， desperate to find answers。 When she meets Joe Abbott and his daughter rescuing baby turtles， she finds a tentative ally。

The more Torie and Joe dig， the more elusive the truth seems。 One thing is clear: someone will risk anything—even more murder—to keep their secrets buried。

Colleen Coble has written another hit！ I loved the romance， the suspense， the characters， and I felt everything flowed together smoothly。 The only reason this one is 4 stars is because I was disappointed in the ending。 I guess I just liked my theory better！ That being said， if you're a romantic suspense fan or a Colleen Coble fan be sure to read this one！ Colleen Coble has written another hit！ I loved the romance， the suspense， the characters， and I felt everything flowed together smoothly。 The only reason this one is 4 stars is because I was disappointed in the ending。 I guess I just liked my theory better！ That being said， if you're a romantic suspense fan or a Colleen Coble fan be sure to read this one！ 。。。more

A great read for romantic suspense fans。 Colleen Coble is one of the best authors in this genre。 This one is a mystery until the end。 Very likable characters and a plot that will keep you guessing。 No clue who the bad guys are until revealed at the end of the book。 I enjoyed this book and recommend it highly。

Michael Ann Watson ，

This was one of Colleen Coble better books。 I am a fan of hers and have read most of her books。 I like the setting in Jekyell Island which is familiar to me。 I like reading books with an area I know。 There was a lot of suspense working around solving several murders。 It kept you guessing until near the end who the murder was。 I enjoyed seeing Joe and Haily and Torie relationship grow throughout the story。 I would recommend this book for young adult and older。

Good read！Colleen Cable always writes a great story。 There were actually two plots and one of them was barely touched。 Other than that it was a good read。

If you’ve read a book by Colleen Coble in the past， you’ll be familiar with her style of writing。 She reveals bits and pieces of clues as the story goes on。 It’s a slow build of suspense。 Coble also builds in some history and interesting trivia with her stories。 I found myself Googling things about historic buildings， sea lions in the military， and more。 That part was fascinating！The story contains a lot of family drama and some internal angst with the characters。 I liked the single-dad romance If you’ve read a book by Colleen Coble in the past， you’ll be familiar with her style of writing。 She reveals bits and pieces of clues as the story goes on。 It’s a slow build of suspense。 Coble also builds in some history and interesting trivia with her stories。 I found myself Googling things about historic buildings， sea lions in the military， and more。 That part was fascinating！The story contains a lot of family drama and some internal angst with the characters。 I liked the single-dad romance that gently simmered on the back burner。 There were also some ironic Undercover Boss-type moments that were a good reminder that one should always be careful about what they say…。you never know who you could be talking to！Thanks to the publisher for giving me a copy for review。 Opinions shared are mine。 。。。more
