Finished this one, a first novel for her. Haven't yet decided what I think. The author did a very nice job moving back and forth between the present and the past. There were two romances, a love triangle and a curse affecting the family. Supposedly the curse was attached to a pack of tarot cards passed from mother to daughter over the years. I had a bit of trouble with that. All the women drowned on July 24. I did finish it but I finish most books I read. However, I almost dropped at its midpoint. I know other readers really enjoyed it so each reader will have to decide what he/she thinks.
