This is the first in a new series.
Shauna lost her husband a year ago and is trying to put her
life back together. She wants nothing to
do with Zach, the man she blames for her husband’s death. Her young son needs a father figure for an
upcoming nature hike, and as much as she hates the idea, she breaks down and
asks Zach for help.
Zach lives with the guilt of what he’s done, but he’s also had
to grieve alone. When Shauna asks him
for help, he readily agrees, hoping it will lead to a renewal of their
friendship. After a mutual friend is
murdered, Zach fears for Shauna’s safety and asks her to move in with him for
safety. As the danger increases, Zach
fears he won’t be able to keep Shauna and her son safe.
This was a good book, with plenty of little twists and turns
in there. I liked the characters, and
the story line was interesting. I didn’t
enjoy it as much as some of Coble’s other works that I’ve read recently, but I
can’t quite pinpoint why. I was able to
put this one down and I wasn’t anxious to get back to it. Don’t get me wrong, I liked it a lot, it just
wasn’t 5 stars to me.
I have a feeling the rest of the series may have something
to do with Shauna’s long-lost siblings.
If it doesn’t, it will be somewhat disappointing, since I’m curious to
know what happened to them. I look
forward to the next one. Good Book!

NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
