HOMETOWN SECRETS 

Was the explosion that took the lives of Sarah Russell's parents an act of murder? Her teenage daughter thinks so and is determined to seek answers in the sleepy small town where Sarah grew up. Sarah fears the teen will uncover a secret she's not ready to share: everyone, including Sarah's daughter, believes the girl is Sarah's kid sister. Even the child's father doesn't know the truth. But as Sarah reunites with Nick Tyler to look into the mysterious deaths, she knows she'll have to tell him—and their daughter—the truth. Yet someone wants to ensure that no one uncovers any long-buried secrets.

Ratings and reviews

If you are looking for a short suspenseful, mysterious, romance this one is for you. Sarah Russell must face her home town, after the tragic death of her parents, in hopes of keeping her sister/teenage daughter safe. She is not sure how to handle the love and acceptance from her old family friends. While trying to keep on eye on her daughter can she keep her safe and keep her heart from being broken again? Will Nick understand and welcome the news that he is a father? Nick Tyler is struggling with his past and the loss of his mother. When Sarah shows up in his life he realizes he has missed her more than he ever knew. However will he be able to keep her safe in this small town from a person unknown? And what is it about Emma, Sarah's sister, that he can't seem to put together. Was the loss of the Tyler and Russell families an accident or something much more.
