I do enjoy a small town romance with a bit of suspense thrown in and when there is a terrible accident in a the hot summer of 2008 Lawson’s Bend changes forever, some move away like Henrietta Bolton who lost her best friend in the accident and some stay like Stephen Drake, but there is a lot to uncover about this accident and years later it is time to find out the truth.
Henny Bolton had moved away from Lawson’ Bend but her Mum stayed and they were really close but Henny never visited but when her mother dies in an accident she is forced to return to the place that had left her broken hearted. She is planning on tidying up her mother’s estate and then move on but an old school friend Stephen Drake steps in and offers to help with a lot of things and Henny is starting to feel at home again.
Stephen is saddened by the death of Henny’s mother and when she returns home he is there to offer help in any way he can, he has always had feelings for Henny since they were in school and maybe now is the time for him to step up set things straight.
MS Hurley-Moore has written a story with fabulous characters, they are easy to make friends with and she has entwined a beautiful love story with suspense and shown how a small town can pull together after a tragedy and be there for each other, there is danger around corners but the spark of new love in the air as well. I loved this one and can highly recommend it, thank you MS Hurley-Moore.
