Now, what will you do to keep her home?
Twenty years ago, Myra Barkley's daughter disappeared from the rocky beach across from the family inn, off the Oregon coast. Ever since, Myra has waited at the front desk for her child to come home. One rainy afternoon, the miracle happens--her missing daughter, now twenty-eight years old with a child of her own, walks in the door.
Elizabeth Lark is on the run with her son. She's just killed her abusive husband and needs a place to hide. Against her better judgment, she heads to her hometown and stops at the Barkley Inn. When the innkeeper insists that Elizabeth is her long lost daughter, the opportunity for a new life, and more importantly, the safety of her child, is too much for Elizabeth to pass up. But she knows that she isn't the Barkleys's daughter, and the more deeply intertwined she becomes with the family, the harder it becomes to confess the truth.
Except the Barkley girl didn't just disappear on her own. As the news spreads across the small town that the Barkley girl has returned, Elizabeth suddenly comes into the limelight in a dangerous way, and the culprit behind the disappearance those twenty years ago is back to finish the job.
🤩My Review🤩 No Spoilers
This book was such a great read for me. I will admit it did go slow for a bit in the beginning. Though mid way through the book… boom. I could not put it down. I was hooked. I was along for the ride with Elizabeth and Theo and rooting for them. I was so invested in Myra & Herb & Gwen. What all these folks were going though and the ending I didn’t see coming. One of my favorites I read in 2021. I highly recommend this book. It’s a ride that you won’t forget. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
