This book is an emotional and thrilling journey filled with love, loss, mystery, and unexpected twists. At the center is River Santos, a young woman who suddenly inherits a large sum of money from an anonymous source. Reeling from her mother’s mysterious disappearance and the recent fire that claimed her father’s life, River is left to navigate her grief and uncertainty with only her best friend, and exvNoah by her side. Still holding onto hope that her mother might return, River refuses to touch the money until they can share it together.

However, things take a turn when Logan, her brooding and unexpectedly charming coworker, begins to take an interest in her. As their connection deepens, River begins to uncover secrets that make her question everything she thought she knew. Who can she trust? What really happened to her parents? And is she ready for the truth?

This story swept me up in its emotional depth, intriguing romance, and layered mystery. From heartbreaking loss to a swoon worthy bad boy romance, it all builds toward a jaw dropping twist. A standout YA mystery with strong storytelling and well developed characters, definitely worth the read.
