Carly Jo Simon carries the weight of the world on her shoulders.
When she unearthed her daddy’s secrets, she had no idea the repercussions she would be faced to live with. Now, his secrets are her own to carry, as she fights to protect her sister Savannah from their daddy’s daunting past and their bastard brother Drew.
Savannah wears a mask of perfection, shielding everyone from the reality of her personal imprisonment. When Savannah’s secrets are exposed, Carly stands by her, hand in hand, offering Savannah the comfort and strength she needs to move on.
Despite carrying the weight of other’s secrets on her back, Carly’s own secrets burden her deeply. Although she battled to keep her heart safely guarded from Colton Weston, he owns every inch of her. But when Carly turned her back on Colton and opened her arms to her best friend Luke, she made a mistake that could shatter all three of their lives.
They all have something to hide. But it’s the secrets that lie beneath the surface that could destroy them all.
I think I sat curled in my chair and chewing on my fingernail the whole time I read this book. After reading Covered in Coal, I was eager to find out the next part of the story and Silla didn’t disappoint. There were a ton of twists and turns in the story, some suspense, and mystery. Of course there was romance as well. I was so stuck on this book that I read it in one sitting and I found myself thinking about it long after I’d finished it. The characters were just as fantastic as the first book and I loved the multiple POVs.
Carly Jo and Colton are dealing with a lot in their lives and don’t even get me started on the actual coal mine. Then there’s Savannah who has a lot of her own issues to deal with. Here are a bunch of really strong characters who have a lot of things happening in their lives (both good and bad) but still care deeply for the ones they love. I can only imagine the feelings going through all of their minds and I think they were portrayed very well.
The story line was just as intriguing as the first book. There is so much happening that you definitely won’t be bored. I loved how everything wove together and the transitions between the POVs were very well written. This was a fantastic book. I will definitely say that Silla Webb knows what she’s doing. I can’t wait for more! 5 out of 5 palm trees!
