Ratings and reviews

Great read! A little disappointed with the build-up of a suspicious character , just to have it go nowhere. But still Enjoyed it very much!

I really enjoyed the story. The writer did a very good job by making it clear on each chapter despite the fact that she twisted the tell a couple times. I am going to read more for her for sure.

Settled on this book from reading other reviews. I couldn't put it down and definitley could not have predicted tbe ending! It was an easy and enjoyable read. It had reignited my love for reading! I will definitely be looking into getting the other titles by Samantha.
