This is the first book in a three-book series. The other books are called Deadly Echoes and Rising Darkness. This is the first book I have read by this author.
Wynter is using her job at the news station to investigate a lead in her brother's disappearance. He's been gone for years, and her parents have accepted that he's dead. Wynter refuses to believe it. She sees him in her dreams, and he's calling for her to find him.
She ends up in the quiet town of Sanctuary, a place where people are suspicious of her and will do anything to keep their secrets safe. Her photographer, Zac, suspects there's more to their visit to the town and ends up wanting to help her
The mayor, Reuben, makes her feel welcome. Someone wants her to leave, and mysterious things keep happening. She's hoping to find out if the young man from the picture is her brother, but she's not going to be able to figure it out on her own.
I really enjoyed the relationship between Zac and Wynter, almost more than I did the romantic relationship that was supposed to be blooming between Wynter and Reuben. Once they get past their initial dislike of each other, Zac isn't afraid to confront Wynter with the realities she needs to hear at times. I just liked the comfortable relationship they ended up having.
My eyes won't thank me tonight, but I read this in one day. It was a great read and well worth it. I'll definitely be on the lookout for the other two books in the series. The main characters in the next book are introduced in this book, but in such a way that I believe these will be okay to read alone or out of order. Even though I was disappointed not to see Zac as a main character in the other books, I'll hold out hope that he still shows up. Fingers crossed! Good Book!
A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here
A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!
