Imagine loving someone with your whole heart, only to find out after they’re gone that you never really knew them at all... Kasen Graves knows what it’s like to have the love of your life ripped from your hands and murdered right in front of you. She thought this would be the worst thing to ever happen to her, but nothing could prepare her for what her wife left behind after her death. Returning to the place Kasen remembers her late wife being the happiest—Heavenly Lodge, a cozy resort nestled between the Adirondack Mountains of northern America—Kasen attempts to heal the wounds of her wife’s passing. However, Heavenly Lodge isn’t the idyllic getaway she had hoped. Instead, it seems Kasen’s spouse left behind more than a grieving widow. The surfacing of a mystery reveals a barrage of secrets that Kasen can no longer overlook with a hidden map pointing to something buried deep in the confines of the mountains and danger in the form of an unknown group of criminals willing to do anything to uncover the secret’s buried before anyone else. Kasen endeavors to honor her wife and solve the mystery all while trying to ignore the unwanted chemistry she feels toward the woman helping her navigate the mountains. As a torrential blizzard draws nearer, covering the mountains with snow, will the truth be exposed?
A traumatic event devastated her life and everything was taken away in a flash. Kasen retreated from society to live temporarily in Heavenly Lodge. She assumes that is the place where no one could hurt her again and where she can stay anonymous. Unfortunately nothing is what it seems. It was so touching, drenched with emotions, with a heartwarming lovestory, an exciting thriller and set in a magical landscape. It reach your heart and the author brought all the characters to life. Holy crap, what a story! This is the first book I've read by T.R. Lynch but it certainly won't be the last. A huge thumbs up to this author.
I wasn't sure what to expect when I started reading this book. I thought maybe a mystery. But this turned out to be a awesome thriller that keep you turning every page plus what is going to happen next. The characters were well written along with the storyline. You can't help but have feelings for Kasen and Megan. I loved that two things made a great impact on the storyline a map and a blizzard. This with the first book I have read of T.R. Lynch but I can guarantee it won't be the last. I definitely recommend this book.
Mystery, Romance, Suspense, Drama... this book has it all
This is the first book of T.R.’s that I’ve read, and my expectations were pleasantly exceeded. I’d expected mystery and romance but what a wonderful surprise to get that delivered as promised along with an additional heavy dose of tension and drama. It was easy to get emotionally involved with both main characters and the story kept me wanting to find out ‘what next?’ as the pace picked up while the pages turned. If you like romance, suspense, drama, and mystery, I think you’ll like this book.
The twists and turns in this books will keep your head spinning! The characters are really well developed and you can truely feel what they are going through. I loved that this book had a different bend in the road to your usual mystery/ romance books. I definately highly recommend this book. It would also make a really good movie for those that like movies.
What a good story! Two women, who have been struggling with the loss of their loved ones, meet at a lodge and heal their hearts together. Kasen’s past comes back to haunt her & Megan tries to help her survive the evil lurking in the storm.
Great mystery and romance, but had several inaccuracies
Many people won't catch the errors, but well-read, and educated people, and/or those with experience in the fields will catch them. Otherwise, it was a good story, with complex, likeable characters.
