Home is where the heart is. The danger too... The Martinellis were the closest thing to family Cat Johnson ever had. That's why she ran--to protect them from her threatening past. The orphaned child of classical musicians, she's been lying low in Nashville and performing at the No Name Café. When Cat reluctantly agrees to attend the wedding of her beloved foster sister, the plan is simple: make a quick appearance at the Martinellis', then disappear again. Instead, she's thrust headlong into a nightmare. After a wedding guest is murdered, Cat's past becomes harder and harder to avoid. So does handsome and inquisitive Safe Harbor cop Nick Stanton, who will stop at nothing to uncover the town's secrets. That means exposing Cat's as well. The more intimate Nick's feelings for Cat become, the more driven he is to find out what she's hiding. As things in Safe Harbor take a terrifying turn, Cat realizes that the man she's afraid to trust might be the only one she can turn to. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

As a young teenage girl, Catharine, an accomplished violinist, runs away from her powerful uncle who is involved in drugs and the mob.
Returning “home” for the wedding of her foster sister in Florida, Cat agrees to her sister’s request to provide music. Having once thought herself safely hidden in Safe Harbor, the death of another sister’s boyfriend indicates Cat may have been found by those she eluded years ago. To keep her family and friends safe, Cat keeps everyone at a distance. Cat is very independent, loyal, and determined to sacrifice herself for those she loves.
The biological son of Sal and Rosa Martinelli, yet kidnapped and raised by friends of the Martinellis, Nick Stanton is the town’s police officer who falls for Cat. Obviously, Cat is either IN trouble or she IS trouble; Nick can’t decide which. Should he help Cat or arrest her? Who has it out for her and why?
The rapid pacing of the book, the many twists, and the total lack of trust between characters kept my neck in whiplash mode. I tried to decode who was the guiltiest party, who would outsmart whom, and who would not live to see the light of the next day. Timing is everything in a novel of this genre, and Connie Mann has it down pat. Me, I’m going to practice my deep breathing and panic-fighting techniques so as to be ready for Mann’s next novel!
