Resumen del Editor

The rich and powerful Josephine Lazarow, matriarch of Fairham Island, is dead. The police say it's suicide, but Keith, her estranged son, doesn't believe it.

Keith bears scars - both physical and emotional - from his childhood, but he's worked hard to overcome the past. After walking away from his mother and her controlling ways five years ago, he's built a new life in LA. He's also accumulated a fortune of his own. But as soon as he learns of his mother's death, he returns to Fairham. He feels he owes it to his grandfather to put the family empire together again, and he's determined to find his mother's killer.

The problem is, coming home to Fairham puts him back in contact with Nancy Dellinger, the woman he hurt so badly when he left before. And digging that deep into his mother's final days and hours entails a very real risk. Because the person who killed her could be someone he loves.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Buried life-changing secrets, realistic family drama, sharply drawn characters, and dynamic descriptions combine with an intriguing and twisty plot in this perfect sequel to Discovering You. A welcome addition to the author's latest series." ( Library Journal)

Great story

Thank You Brenda Novak for writing another terrific book... Your stories never seem to disappoint me... Can’t wait to download more when I can ... This story kept my interest all the way through...❤️

OMG!!

The second book in the series is Awesome!! It keeps you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out who killed Josephine Lazarow. And then ends with a cliff hanger....until we meet with Keith Lazarow from Fairham Island. Can't wait for book 3!

Gripping!

Very well Narrated. The story catches you right away with real characters that you can love and hate. Looking for a Book 3!

Nasty people eventually reap what they sew!

I loved this two book series, the story kept my interest from start to finish. The narrator did an excellent job on all the female & children’s voices, but she needs to improve her “male” voice narration. It wasn’t off putting enough to make me stop listening 🙉 but male character voices could have been better.

I tell you another thriller that twists

Talk about a storyline that continues to keep you riveted and on the edge of your seat. Gripping!

Enjoyable story

I enjoyed listening to this story. The narrator did a fabulous job. I recommend it.

What a twist!

Great story line! Funny, charming, twisted and engaging story. I love the narrators.
Looking forward to more books from this author.

2nd book Featuring Keith’s story

Overall it was good contemporary romance. A lot of angst and a bit to much indecisive thoughts. This story follows the death of Keith’s and Maisys mother. While also intertwining their newly found sister Rocky. Can’t say I loved this book and I really do enjoy most of Novak’s novels. This one pushed on my nerves to many times. I disliked the contempt there mother had in both books and she never really comes out with a redemption moment. Cannot stand the desperate housewives moments that were mixed into the series. Because we would all hope some people would have more back bone then that. But the main characters storylines dragged on like the last book, took way to long for both of them to admit their feelings. Plus I’m not sure if I like there new sister anymore. Overall it was interesting read. I just can’t really stand how wishy washy the family seems to be! I wonder if they will do another book on Rocky’s marriage. I really don’t think I’d care to read it though. I can stand behind a good redemption story but pushovers leave me unimpressed. At points I skipped over parts because I just can’t comprehend how anyone could move past that idea even when you love someone. This story was more of a drama.

Love and mystery

Love the story line and that there was a mystery and romance in the story

Great series

I have been a big fan of Carly Robins work for a few years, and normally her accents, at least to my ears, are great. Unfortunately in this recording, her Australian accent sounds like it just stepped out of the London Tube. Fortunately, it wasn't a very big part of the storyline, but it was a little confusing.

Still giving five stars across the board for Carly and her performance and the story. I hope there is a novella to finish the story with Keith and Hugh.
