Holy Smokes!
This story was a perfect slow burn, following a twisted trail of secrets and lies, leading up to an unexpected explosive ending that blew me away.
Carly Moore is my favorite kind of heroine! She sees beyond the surface and looks for the truth of the situation, even when it leads her directly into danger. While she hasn't been in Drum even a full year yet, she has become invested in the people and the community. Unfortunately, in a town that has been beaten down like Drum, Carly's charitable actions only seem to build more distrust between her and the town-folk. Carly is working to bring down the man who threatened to reveal her past, but with trust issues of her own, she's questioning everything and everyone.
I loved everything about this book! I cannot wait until Carly's next book in June.
