True Blend
Great summer beach read.
Synopsis:
Amy Trewist couldn't ask for more than her simple life in Addison, Connecticut. From her old farmhouse, to her best friend living in the bungalow next door, to the big red barn at the end of the road, to her small shop across from the town green, what else could she want?
Quite simply, she wants it back. Because while running errands early one morning, a sudden, unexpected encounter threatens all Amy holds dear. When she crosses paths with a stranger, her cherished life seems as fleeting as the sparkling droplets spraying from the town's stone wishing fountain.
But as destiny would have it, a dinner with the reluctant man who came into her life that day changes everything. A secluded beach cottage and love song dedications and dances beneath the starlight slowly lead her back to happiness. And when destiny runs its course, a stunning twist will have Amy finally find the silver lining within one dark summer cloud.
My Review:
Fantastic summer read. Totally surprised at how much I liked this book as I wanted a light read and this book certainly packed a punch. I can't write much about the plot as it is somewhat of a mystery/thriller and that would give away too much. But this is a story about lies, cover ups, a crime and the effect on its victims. Basically, what would you do if you find out that someone you love and trust has lied. That lie impacts your life profoundly. However, the lie is born of chivalrous and protective intentions. Does that justify the lie? Or are the actions that lead to lying what shapes the relationship above the sincere intentions? Fantastic storyline and characters. Not to mention, a really good ending.
