Synopsis

 
Lost in the shadows of a tragedy that stripped Aurora June of everything she once loved, she’s back in the small town of Balsam Grove, North Carolina, ready to face all she’s kept locked away for seven years. Or so she thinks.
As one of the victims of a string of mysterious disappearances in the small, picturesque Appalachian Mountain town, darkness has become her home—her safe blanket when the world reveals its true colors. But as the walls of darkness start to move in on her, she knows the only way to free herself from her past is to face it, head-on. She just needs to figure out how. Upon arrival, Aurora isn’t expecting her first collision to be with the boy she left all those years ago. The boy who betrayed her trust with no regrets. The boy who is no longer a boy, but a man with the same stormy eyes that swept her into his current before she ever learned to swim. She’d thought he was safe. He’d thought their path was mapped out. Turns out neither of them was ready for the crash at the bottom of the cascade.

Review

Rating: ☆☆☆☆☆ 

When Aurora returns to her hometown, she is not welcomed back with open arms.  She is being made to pay for the sins of her father, despite being one of his victims herself.  It is these events that are partly responsible for taking her away from Jaxon but it is their opportunity now for a second chance.

This was a multi-faceted read with the emotion and pain experienced by Aurora in rebuilding her life; the patience demonstrated by Jaxon in hoping for a second chance and never giving up on her completely; and the tenseness that comes from the past not staying in the past.  It all came together in a way that had me running a gauntlet of emotions and led to me devouring it in one sitting.  It certainly packed a punch.
