About this ebook

As a teenager, Toni Murphy had a life full of typical adolescent complications: a boyfriend she adored, a younger sister she couldn't relate to, a strained relationship with her parents, and classmates who seemed hell-bent on making her life miserable. Things weren't easy, but Toni could never have predicted how horrific they would become until her younger sister was brutally murdered one summer night.

Toni and her boyfriend, Ryan, were convicted of the murder and sent to prison.

Now thirty-four, Toni, is out on parole and back in her hometown, struggling to adjust to a new life on the outside. Prison changed her, hardened her, and she's doing everything in her power to avoid violating her parole and going back. This means having absolutely no contact with Ryan, avoiding fellow parolees looking to pick fights, and steering clear of trouble in all its forms. But nothing is making that easy—not Ryan, who is convinced he can figure out the truth; not her mother, who doubts Toni's innocence; and certainly not the group of women who made Toni's life hell in high school and may have darker secrets than anyone realizes. No matter how hard she tries, ignoring her old life to start a new one is impossible. Before Toni can truly move on, she must risk everything to find out what really happened that night.But in That Night by Chevy Stevens, the truth might be the most terrifying thing of all.

Ratings and reviews

I absolutely love this book. I have read it several times since I purchased it. It's a love story that also has drama, slander, and murder . You get to know the characters right away and either love or hate them. Chevy Stevens is a new author to me but so far, I love all her books. I also love the fact that they have the "read out loud" option. I will continue to read her books in the future as new ones come out. They are impossible to put down once you start.

I found it difficult to get into... unlike her other books. It was the juxtaposition of the teenage character beside the future hardened inmate that kept me from attaching to Toni. Once I was able to... around page 150 or so... I couldn't put it down! As all of Chevy's other books.... its a page turner!

This book is what made me love Chevy's writing I coulden't put the book down my boyfriend even had me give him the updates from chapter to chapter.all her books so far have kept my attention
