About this ebook

A story of old secrets, deadly grudges and an improbable group of friends who are determined to uncover the truth regardless of the consequences…

Sara Medlar is a household name in romance, with millions of books sold. But lately, retirement has been boring her and she’s found herself back in her hometown of Lachlan, Florida, remodeling the grand old mansion she admired as a child. It’s much too big for her alone, but she’d die before letting anyone in town know that.

Then Sara’s niece, Kate, is offered a job in Lachlan—a start in what could be a very successful career in real estate. She accepts immediately, but with so little saved up, she’ll have to approach her estranged yet incredibly famous aunt for a place to stay while she gets herself settled. When she arrives at Sara’s home, she finds she’s not the only long-term houseguest. Jackson Wyatt already has his own room, and though it’s impossible to deny his good looks and charm—he’s clearly got her aunt wrapped around his finger—she’s also never met anyone who irritates her quite like Jack does.

However, when two skeletons are accidentally uncovered in the quiet town, this unlikely trio is suddenly thrust together by a common goal: solve a mystery everyone else seems eager to keep under wraps. United by a sense of justice and the desire to right old wrongs, Sara, Kate and Jack will have to dig into Lachlan’s murky past to unravel the small town’s dark secrets and work to bring the awful truth to light.

Ratings and reviews

I love this book, the author, and would love to finish it but the system won't let me. I keep getting asked if I would like buy the book, yes and I did on April 8th. I had a very hard time finding the book on my tablet and when I did start reading and got to page 77 (aprox) I was asked to buy the book. I was going to go thru the process and buy the book again and it said "you already purchased this book." I went back to the book, paged forward to approximately 77 and got to page 81 and was asked if I would like to purchase the book. You can't know how frustrated I am. I'm not a techie I'm 76, long ago retired and just want to read this $6.99 book. It shouldn't be this damn hard. Please! Help! Sandy Crotty PS I would like to take my 5 stars off in the "edit my review" but apparently you can edit everything but the stars. I just wish someone would HELP MR TO READ THIS BOOK!!!!

couldn't get into it, felt like it was for a much younger reader

To have to wait years for a new book and get two in six months was amazing! Jude kills it again !
