About this listen

When she closed her eyes, she was back in that apartment again - shivering, shards of glass around her, her hands stained with blood...

Six years earlier, Trina Grissom disappeared, on the run for her life. Now living under an assumed identity - as Samantha Marsh - she still struggles with the dark secret she harbors and the fear she might one day be found. When she moves to the coastal town of Rarity Cove, South Carolina, to open a cafe, a handsome widower begins to chip away at the walls she's built to protect herself.

Mark St. Clair lost his wife two years ago in a tragic accident. Head of the grand St. Clair resort, he distracts himself from his lingering grief by running the family business and caring for his troubled young daughter...until a beautiful restaurateur sets up shop in town.

As Samantha and Mark begin a hesitant courtship, double perils emerge. Someone from Samantha's lurid past comes calling, threatening to expose her. And a powerful hurricane is forming in the Atlantic with the small beach town in its path. Trapped in the storm by the brutal man who wants vengeance on Samantha, she and Mark must fight for their lives.

A very well thought out story, twists and turns with some very believable characters, thoroughly enjoyed listening to it, in fact I found myself thinking about the story when not listening

Great narration & story

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Narrator was good and story engaging but too sugary sweet for me. Not really my cup of tea.

Too sloppy for me

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Quite intense storyline and gripping action. The ferocity of the storm gave it more excitement. With a happy ending it made an enjoyable story
