Savannah Wilde is returning to her hometown for a 2 month sabbatical after a threat is made against her. She is going to clean up the home she grew up in and prepare it for sale. She hasnt been home in 10 years and the reason is the new Chief of Police and her first love, Zach Tanner.
Zach Tanner is dealing with a town vandal and petty crime when the girl he let go comes back to town. She needs his protection but its the perfect excuse to get close again.
I am really on the fence with this book. The content isnt lacking in anyway, nor is the writing. Where I think this book lost stars for me is in the editing. The first 72 pages focus on things that happened when Savannah was 10, then when she was 18. I dont mind a chapter or two visiting memory lane, but this was excessive. It set the pace for the book which ended up being a little slow.
I liked the story, but Savannahs present day issue with the threats could have been eliminated all together the only purpose it served was getting her home. She could have made that decision on her own as her grandfather had just passed away.
I am hoping this books tone and pace was because it was an introduction not only to the Wilde sisters and town but their tragic past. I loved the characters and I enjoy the romantic suspense. I am hoping that Samantha and Sabrinas stories will be tidier since theirs wont be bogged down with their parents story.
This book isnt perfect, it has its flaws but there is also some greatness to it. My overall opinion was that this was a slow start to what I hope will be a really great series. I am really looking forward to Sabrina and Samanthas books. I also look forward to getting an update on Zach and Savannah.
