Publisher's summary

New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts deftly blends romance and suspense in this compelling novel of a woman whose career, marriage, and very life are threatened by the truth about her own past.

Emma McAvoy may have grown up in the limelight, but some secrets are hidden in a darkness no light can reach. Now on the verge of a successful career, and having fallen in love with the man of her dreams, Emma is looking to the future. Yet it’s the past that is about to catch up with her.

For Emma, her childhood had been almost like a rags-to-riches fairy tale - until the tragic night that changed her family forever. But what Emma thinks she knows about that terrible night and the man she’s about to marry is only half the truth. The other half is locked away in the last place she’d ever think to look: her own memories. It’s a mystery a handsome and relentlessly driven homicide detective needs to solve in a case that’s haunted him for years - and a secret someone will kill to keep.

Struggled at first, glad I finished

I originally struggled to stay interested in the storyline. I stopped a few times and kept coming back. Really glad I finished it, excellent ending and great story!

Accent is somewhat annoying

The accents almost made me turn it off. I know it takes place in England and the characters are from Ireland and it’s probably written that way, but the speaking parts in different accents almost made me turn it off. I’ve read the book before so I have no complaints in the story line.

Did not like the violence. Would not have read if I had known. Otherwise, I love Nora Roberts.

What Makes the Music the Hit?

The band, writers, singers, publicity, or the fans?
Is it everything or none of the above?
For lead singer/song writer Brian’s three years old daughter, Emma, the haunting forgotten memories, were lost in the fog when her baby brother died. She struggled for years trying to forget the cruelty of her mother while trying to remember what really happened the night her brother was murdered.
Terrified of the dark, there was a friend from her childhood whom she grew to trust. But, there really were monsters in the dark.

Outstanding

So different from Nora Roberts normal plot. I became so attached to multiple characters and loved getting to follow them through years of highs and lows.

Excellent!

Great story annoying narrator

I really love the story ,the characters were great!
It was my first Nora Roberts book and I am sure to read all her others. Unfortunately the narrator Renee Raudman Should stick to American accents and probably just women’s voices… I almost turned it off a few times but the story was so good that I just kept listeningl
