I love both the romance and thriller genres , so this was a win-win for me. I love trying to solve mysteries throughout and this kept me on my toes. I had a hunch about the suspect, but was pleasantly surprised about the motive and LOVED the ending. The central relationship is great, and I loved hearing a mature romance unfold in such an honest, real, and sexy way. Loved both the female/male performers who really brought their characters to life. Though this is really Laura, the female protagonist’s story and the narrator, Oona Maya, was perfectly cast. Many very touching scenes as she reminisces on her family and backstory. A very compelling audiobook. I don’t know if this part of a series, I hope so because I want to know what becomes of Laura and Nate! Off to find more of author, Sally Royer Derr’s books, as I really enjoyed this one!
