Publisher's summary

She knew what he wrote... One little word that made her feel both cheated and beloved. One word that changed everything. Mine.

On a chilly morning in the Northwest Iowa town of Blackhawk, Dr. Lucas Hudson is filling in for the vacationing coroner on a seemingly open-and-shut suicide case. His own life is crumbling around him, but when he unearths the body of a woman buried in the barn floor beneath the hanging corpse, he realizes this terrible discovery could change everything....

Years before Lucas ever set foot in Blackhawk, Meg Painter met Dylan Reid. It was the summer before high school and the two quickly became inseparable. Although Meg's older neighbor, Jess, was the safe choice, she couldn't let go of Dylan no matter how hard she tried. Caught in a web of jealousy and deceit that spiraled out of control, Meg' s choices in the past ultimately collide with Lucas' discovery in the present, weaving together a taut story of unspoken secrets and the raw, complex passions of innocence lost.

bitter sweet, beautiful sentiment, lost love.

I really enjoyed this book and the Narrator’s mastery of catching the personalities of each character with the perfect voice.

The best book I have listened to in a long time.

What made the experience of listening to Sleeping in Eden the most enjoyable?

The entire story was well written and well read. It kept my attention and I found it very hard when I had to break to tend to work.

Any additional comments?

I recommend that if you are looking for an excellent book, this is well worth the cost.

Wow!

This book is devastatingly beautiful. I felt deeply connected to the characters, and when I think back on the relationships and what might have been, my heart hurts a bit. I can’t remember the last time I read a book so well written. The words were so relatable and real. I’ll be thinking about this one for a while.
