About this ebook

In this USA TODAY bestselling romantic suspense, Claire’s visit to a luxury hotel in Maine awakens repressed memories that undermine all she holds dear.

In 1989, Claire Dellamare disappeared from her own fourth birthday party at the Hotel Tourmaline on the island of Folly Shoals, Maine. She showed up a year later at the same hotel, with a note pinned to her dress but no explanation. Nobody knows where Claire spent that year—and until now, Claire didn’t even know she had ever been missing.

But when Claire returns to the Hotel Tourmaline for a business meeting with her CEO father, disturbing memories begin to surface . . . despite her parents’ best efforts to keep them forgotten.

Luke Rocco lost his mother under equally mysterious circumstances—at the same time Claire disappeared. After a chance encounter reveals the unlikely link between them, Claire and Luke set out together to uncover the truth about what happened that fateful year.

With flashbacks swimming just beneath her consciousness and a murderer threatening her safety, Claire’s very life depends on unscrambling her past . . . even if her family refuses to acknowledge it. Someone—maybe everyone—is hiding something from Claire, and it could cost her everything to drag the truth out into the light.

Ratings and reviews

Page turning mystery centered around kidnapping and death. Family ties intermingled with a series of puzzling events. Nurturing a baby Orca brought about an amazing rescue. Great read.

It is one of those books that you can't stop reading because you can't wait to see what happens next. At the same time you are enjoying it so much you don't want it to end.

What a great read. You have no ideal how it is going to end. Mystery, romance, exciting keeps you on your edge wanting to know how it is going to all play out. Love the ending and the way they trusted God
