I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. The expected publication date is May 10th, 2016.

First random thought - it says this story is 165 pages on Goodreads. I can not validate as I was reading it on my kindle however I am pretty sure it was longer than that. If not, my reading pace has significantly decreased. I'm pretty sure it is just not accurate.

Torn from her hometown and her father as a child, Paige Waters' last memory of both is fraught with mystery and confusion. Now, sixteen years later, with both her parents gone, Paige returns to Alcina Cove, certain there is more to the painful story than she's been led to believe. The answers must lie within the community, buffered from the larger world by the sea; but when she finds the townspeople more reticent than ever, her only hope is the intriguing man who lives in her childhood home--if she can break down his reserve…

A fisherman turned writer, Liam Gray is haunted by secrets of his own, some of which are deeply entangled with the closure Paige seeks. But as he and Paige grow intimate, their attraction building, Liam finds himself torn between truth and betrayal. Whichever he chooses will risk his future with Paige and cause someone pain--until an even greater danger leaves him no choice…

Review:

I have to say this one kept me guessing as to what was going on for quite awhile. At first I was not sure what this book was a supernatural tale, a romance or a suspense, but as I read on it became clearer. I thought the Author did a great job of misdirecting me as a reader to keep the mystery going. I did not know who Paige should be trusting or who the person was stalking her. I knew Liam had some agenda and even though I liked him I did not want to for Paige's sake. Paige was great, I really liked that she was strong and did not let others push her around or tell her what to do, sometimes to her own determent...lol All the secondary characters were great too and added to the mystery and weird feeling the town gave off. The ghosts in the story added a spooky element to an already weird feeling the town and the people were giving off. I liked the romance between these two, they both need comfort, but they both don't want to need the other also. This is part of a series, though from what I can tell they really don't seem to connect. I have not read the first book, but this is a stand alone title. I would definitely like to pick the other book in this series and read it.

CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS

This was a very good book. The suspense kept you on the edge of your seat while the pages kept turning. I couldn't wait to find out what happened next. The ending was "Wow! Never saw that coming!". The love and suspense in this story made for a very good book. The characters and story line were well developed.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this book! This was the first book I've read by Celia Ashley and I couldn't wait to dive in.

Paige Waters was torn from her hometown and her father as a child. Sixteen years later, Paige returns to Alcina Cove (love that name) to get some answers to the stories she's been fed about this town. She hopes to get these answers from the man who lives in her childhood home. Yea, well...best laid plans and all that.

well written suspenseful romance that will keep you guessing. Liam and Paige make an interesting couple and one you will find yourself rooting for. You will like this if you like romances with a touch of mystery, secrets, and lies. The setting adds to the atmosphere. THanks to Netgalley for the ARC.
