The Inn at Ocean's Edge

The Inn at Ocean's Edge

Colleen Coble

 

Claire's visit to a luxury hotel in Maine awakens repressed memories, threatening all she holds dear.

In 1989, Claire Dellamare disappeared from her own fourth birthday party at the Hotel Tourmaline on the island of Folly Shoals, Maine. She showed up a year later at the same hotel, with a note pinned to her dress but no explanation. Nobody knows where Claire spent that year---and until now, Claire didn't even know she had ever been missing.

But when Claire returns to the Hotel Tourmaline for a business meeting with her CEO father, disturbing memories begin to surface . . . despite her parents' best efforts to keep them forgotten.

Luke Rocco lost his mother under equally mysterious circumstances---at the same time Claire disappeared. After a chance encounter reveals the unlikely link between them, Claire and Luke set out together to uncover the truth about what happened that fateful year.

With flashbacks swimming just beneath her consciousness and a murderer threatening her safety, Claire's very life depends on unscrambling her past . . . even if her family refuses to acknowledge it. Someone-maybe everyone-is hiding something from Claire Dellamare, and it will cost her everything to drag the truth out into the light.

What a great story. The suspense and mystery were spell binding in the plot. I couldn't put the book down. The author did a great job of creating authentic and true to life characters that you either loved or loved to hate. The story was very fast paced and will definitely keep you on the edge of your seat. There was a message of faith in the story, but it was subtly woven in. I enjoyed the romance and the family aspects that the author brought up. It was an exciting read that stayed with me long after I finished the book. Definitely one I would recommend to anyone who enjoys a good romantic suspense.

I received this book free of charge from Litfuse Publicity in exchange for my honest review.
