Synopsis: Sunday leads a solitary existence, spending most of his time reading and fishing on his boat, hidden among the Ten Thousand Islands off the Florida coast. It has been years since he has spoken with anyone outside of his priest and confidant, Steady. Because Steady once saved his life, Sunday can't refuse when he asks him to save another. Katie Quinn, a world-famous actress, has been driven by a secret and the pressures of her fame to end her life. Sunday provides an alternate escape, a way to write herself a new life by helping her to fake her death. But Katie still must confront her past before she can find peace, and she'll need Sunday to leave his secluded home and travel to the French countryside to help her.
Review: Sometimes you select a book because even though it's not your normal fair, something about it is calling you. This was one of those books for me! I could NOT put it down,once I got 4 chapters in! Once the roller coaster of 'what will happen' started, and how Sunday and Katie survive together, and in the end save each other, there was no stopping me from finishing this book! The author does an excellent job in bringing Florida, and the Everglades, to life- it's vastness really provides a great backdrop and character to the book. Definitely bring this one to the beach, just bring plenty of sunscreen, because you aren't going to want to move once you get into it!
