   Shara Brandt doesn’t know how she wound up on a creek bank behind a school, miles from home. She doesn’t know who murdered her wealthy, but cruel, grandmother. She does know she has one chance to learn the truth about the murder, clear her name, and leave behind a shadowy past she can’t remember and can’t forget.  She adopts the alias “Bethany Elias,” works her way into the heart of the residents of Rock Harbor, and tries to 

ignore the way her heart races every time the reclusive Bryan Jacobs comes near her.

    Emotionally bruised after his ugly divorce, Bryan trusts no one. He certainly doesn’t trust the beautiful newcomer, Bethany. He knows she’s hiding something, and he is determined to expose her secret. To do so, however, he must lie to her, and himself, about his motives…and the feelings stirring deep within him each time he sees Bethany.

     It is their search for truth that will bind Bryan and Shara together or shatter their lives forever. Success, and love, will be theirs only if they understand they cannot control each other or even themselves.  Everything lies in chance.

My Review.

This is my first book by this author and I really enjoyed the mystery and the sweet romance. This book is what I call a slow burn. I was reading along when I suddenly realised I couldn't put it down and needed to know what was going to happen and to who.
As late I have been reading a lot of darker, raunchy romance and this was a lovely change of pace. It wasn't jam packed with steamy sex scenes but it had endless romantic tension that I was more than satisfied with. I can't wait to read the next books in the series.
