" . . . the perfect home on the perfect island for the perfect family."
That's how Piper Boone's life began; it's not at all how it ended. Everything changed one fateful afternoon when the loss of what was most precious to her became a painful reminder of what she never could regain. Returning to Curlew Island, South Carolina became a way to survive her loss of employment, a failed marriage, and the many, many painful memories.
Except
that now, " A man's weight across (her) body crushed (her) to the
sidewalk. . . . . . Don't move". . . . . . . then, "Like the eye of a
hurricane, silence". What were the chances that a pleasant lunch date
with a friend would involve an active shooter, a hero, and more
questions than answers. As Piper and Tucker Landry (the man who took a
bullet for her) begin to unravel the supposed curse surrounding the
powerful and prestigious Boone family, it isn't surprising how shocked
they become with the outcome.
"You are my angel, my soul-mate, my
friend. I'll be right with you till the end. And when you fear the
stormy gale, I'll keep you safely on the trail."
What a thriller! Impossible to figure out; this story all but begs you to sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride! *I purchased a copy and was under no obligation to provide a positive review.
Aaaah, thank you so much!!
ReplyDeleteI just finished this on audio last week and really enjoyed it! I like the feeling of the 'family dynasty' with questionable motives, and the island setting!
