It wasn’t the first time sitting front row at a funeral for 19-year-old Savannah Sutherland and it wouldn’t be her last. That was the price of loving people… losing them. After spending a year abroad in Scotland, having the best year of her life, Savannah finds herself in the middle of a murder investigation for her aunt Rae. Haunted by nightmares and the thought of what happened inside the walls of their home, Savannah struggles to settle back into life in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Romance is the last thing she needs while grieving the loss of the woman who raised her, but when Nick Walker shows up at Rae’s funeral, she can’t help but be drawn into the comfort he brings her. Things aren’t all what they seem to be when Savannah begins to question her own safety. Who hurt Rae and why? Are they still out there… waiting? The one question she can’t get out of her head- is she next?
I had the absolute privilege of reading this book, and I’m still thinking about it days later. The writing is beautiful, the characters are vivid and real, and the story pulls you in from the very first page.
Every chapter had me feeling something—whether it was laughter, tears, or goosebumps. You can feel the heart and soul poured into every word.
If you’re looking for your next read, do yourself a favor and pick this one up. You won’t regret it.
