I always enjoy a story from this author. She has a way of blending a good mystery with romance. Theres a plenty of suspense and while it may be obvious where it’s going, it’s still a journey to get there that I look forward to every time. 

If you recall the Piper Falls series with the fireman, you’ll remember this little town and we’re back but this time with the police department. There’s plenty of triggers to be aware of in this book, mainly DV and SA as they play big parts in some backstory. The backstory is given to us in flashbacks and I love that about this story. It really builds the connection with the character and allows you to root for her success. 

I definitely enjoyed this rollercoaster of a book!
