The arrival of Gina Higgins, a mysterious stranger who is determined to restore Kiss River‘s historic nineteenth-century lighthouse, profoundly impacts the lives of Lacey O‘Neill, a talented stained-glass artist with a dark past, and her brother Clay, who is trying to rebuild his life after a devastating tragedy. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the story about saving the fresnel light. Great book!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 4.5 Stars

What happened to Riley‘s sister, Lisa, all those years ago? Did she kill herself? And why?

This one kept me up all last night until I finished, and I‘m not one to do that. I didn‘t want to stop. I personally found it predictable (I guessed what happened pretty much from the start), but that didn‘t spoil the book for me in the least bit.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💫4.5 Stars

Yet another amazing read from #DianeChamberlain. This one sucked me in immediately and was quite the page turner. I could hardly put it down. What was CeeCee Wilkes hiding?

The only reason I did not give a full 5 stars because I did not find the ending to be realistic, but I liked how it was wrapped up at the same time. #Mystery

Another 5 Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ book from #DianeChamberlain.

She writes like no one else. Brings history into her writing to make these stories real (all while educating), adds just enough mystery to keep you thinking & turning the pages, has you loving all the characters. And it flows seamlessly.

This particular story took place in the 1960‘s. Told from two point of views (one being a social worker), & covered the Eugenics Sterilization program.

Went away for 3 days to help my sister with my niece and nephew. Came back home when I found out my mom got sick and found some book mail on my bed. Got my first ARC in the mail and I can't wait to read it! Thanks @StMartinsPress !!

Opening line:
"There were nights that Joelle thought she could actually feel the fog rolling in outside her window, cutting her off from the rest of the world."
