Confused and angry, Dr. Sarah Wainwright returned to the Georgia island of St. James in search of answers to her husband's mysterious death--in an apparent lovers' tryst with the wife of wealthy industrialist Trent Donner. Anger seemed to be the only edge Sarah had--Trent's control of the island and his protectiveness for his young daughter were enough to drive even this scandal back into the shadows.
A man whose life depended on keeping his secrets; a woman whose future depended on learning the truth--could her quest set them free, or would it destroy them all?
Very good book. I loved the characters. Finished it very quickly

This was such a predicable story, the plot and storyline are so worn out, only the characters are different. I knew half way.through the book how it was going to end. There has to be a lot of drama in between. In this instance it was Sarah's string of "accidents" that she some how managed to survive with only a few cuts and bruises, unbelievable. Sarah and Trent with all the drama going on they suddenly discovered they were in love dispite all the annomosity between. Trent had tons of money so their lives would be a life of luxury and Melissa would have the mother she always dreamed of.
Soooooo very "fairy taleish" and "they lived happily ever
after." I found this book a little on the boring side and towards the end I found myself skipping pages. There was no real suspense or surprises and after Sarah's string of near misses, I lost interest. I barely made it to the last page. If Ms. Perry wants to be a real author she should get out of the "fairy tale" mode.

Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.I realize that this if fiction, however it borders on fantasy it is so unrealistic. To be truly honest I fell as if the author thinks her readers are too dumb to realize just how far fetched this story is. It is readable but really not worth your time; there are too many really good books waiting to be read and appreciated. I suggest you pass this one up.

I enjoyed this as I have all of Marta Perry's books that I have read. They are not to heavy and I love finding God in her books. Definitely not War and Peace, but a good read!

A widow and widower investigate their deceased spouses' deaths and fall in love with each other in the process. Well rounded characters, some good surprises, but overall a predictable ending.
