Twenty-five years after his father’s unsolved murder, Asa Dutton returns to Hope Island determined to uncover the truth. His only lead is Maya Callahan—the little girl found hiding in the barn the night his father died.
Maya has no memory of that stormy night. But as fragments of her past resurface, so does danger. Someone is watching. Someone who will kill to keep the truth buried.
As Asa and Maya grow closer, the stakes turn deadly. Because remembering the past may be the only way to survive it.

My Review
This faith based read had me holding my breath, never knowing what is around the next corner.
This is Asa and Maya's story, both loosing a parent, but whom is the culprit? I didn't guess whom was responsible!
The author does such a great job of weaving this story, with twenty five years having past, Maya has stayed on Hope Island, and now Asa is back to face his past and hopefully bring justice for his father.
Answers do come, but the journey to them can be harrowing, and often with my heart in my throat!
I did love the epilogue.
If you enjoy clean romance, with a lot of suspense throw in, you will be page turning, this is such a great read!
I received this book through the author, and was not required to give a positive review.
