About this listen

After losing her husband and mother within a span of two years, Verity C. Huntington, a #1 international best-selling romance author, trying to figure out life as a single mother has now been tasked to be her best friend’s Maid of Honor and the wedding will be held in none other than the small town she swore she would never return to and has stayed away from for the last 13 years - Adelaide, Texas.

On a whim, Verity decides to pack up her kids, flip the home and the barn, sell them- and her memories of Adelaide - for good. But her plans hit a snag when Dean Carson- her first love and now Adelaide’s sheriff- reenters her life, determined to have her fall in love with him once more.

But he’s not the only thing making her heart race.

The longer she stays in her mother’s house, things begin to go bump in the night, shadows crawl, dark secrets resurface, and stranger things are playing tricks. With her heart and her sanity on the line, she must confront the dark truths hidden in Adelaide’s shadows. Can she escape unscathed once again, or is something far more sinister lurking in a quiet Texas town?

There are books that touch and move you as reader/listener. We all know the one ones that are well written, superbly narrated and achingly memorable.

And then there are times when I truly think a story has been written for me. It extracts my thoughts and feelings. And then an amazing storyteller embodies my turmoil, lessons both past and present. Plus it’s audio is narrated by complex voice characters, that enhances the authors feelings/thoughts.

This book, healed. BIGTIME!

Utter perfection 💕

i found the whole story decently engrossing and it kept me interested... I did guess a couple of the twists early on, but it didn't detract from the enjoyment of the story - Darling has a great way with words and it keeps you want it to read more. why not a 5 star rating... for me it has to blow me away. the narrators did a brilliant job, but I unfortunately got a little bogged down in places and started feeling exasperated... I did enjoy it, truly, but was also happy to finally reach the end as I felt it staeted to drag a little for me toward the end. I adore Darlings work and will always read her as one of my top authors, but comparing this to her other titles I can't rate it as highly...

it's a nice contemporary romance with some twists that ultimately bend the way romance stories do and you (the reader) feel resolved.

engrossing

yet another epic Ruby Darling novel. Spicy with a plot that leaves you wanting to leaving the world behind to get lost in the pages... and the audio.

Never disappoints
