Small town secrets on a small island off Washington state. I loved the romantic lure of the island being a little magical, a little full of original family power. It was interesting how it painted both the friendship between Lily and Emery and the love between Emery and August.

I also found the small town secrets interesting. I was pulled along as Emery tried to untangle the night her best friend died under strange circumstances and who all was lying now 14 years later.

But it just wasn't quite ...more

3.5 stars

I loved the atmosphere but felt like it dragged. And I wanted a stronger mystery and more magic.

Was not what I thought would happen for sure. I liked that there was a bit of magic mixed into the story rather than that being the main focus that was driving the mystery.

I loved this. The only thing I could wish for is that there had been a little more magic to it, but the atmosphere was very mystical and there was just a little bit of fantasy here. This author is one that I will always read whatever she writes.
