From New York Times best-selling author Aleatha Romig comes a stand-alone new-adult, romantic thriller where love is new, and monsters lurk in expensive suits behind million-dollar smiles.
Woodland Cliffs Country Club is the crown jewel of the small Monterey-area seaside town. It’s comfortable stomping grounds for those born to money and opportunity. With the club’s esteemed members from near and far, it’s not unusual to spot celebrities, business tycoons, or those with even more power.
It isn’t the glamour or intrigue that attracts Rae Watson to seek a summer job at the Cliffs. As a struggling college student, she simply wants to earn money for her senior year at the university and concentrate on classes.
When Rae’s friend helps secure her summer employment at the Cliffs, Rae willingly accepts. She quickly learns there’s more to the Cliffs, particularly the hidden world of those the country club employs.
The lives of the elite and those who serve them are worlds apart.
What will that mean for Rae and the handsome blue-eyed college student who makes her swoon?
Will she discover the secrets purged from the high cliffs, waiting to be found on the rocky shores, or will she find herself on the edge?
Review:
Ohhhhhhh. That ending!!!! I won’t go into too much detail on this review because this is one of those books that you need to read and experience all on your own, but just know… the ending was epic. There is some of the story left to your imagination but I think most of us would think the same thing. This book is filled with mystery and suspense. I was engaged and furiously scrolling through the pages to find out more and what’s going to happen next. When I first started the book, I was afraid there were too many characters to be able to remember all of them and all of the details. However, as the book continues and you really get a feel for the storyline and the crew of people, it’s easy to remember and keep things straight. Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I loved Rae. She seemed like a smart, tough, intuitive woman and I’m always for a strong leading lady. Frankie and his parents seemed kind. I don’t feel like I got a strong sense of his character but I think we did get a good picture of his for his family including Rae. I loved their dates on the beach and his reassurance to Rae of her being good enough and helping her learn not to lump people together. There were of course characters in the story that you loathe (and are supposed to loathe). Oh, and I think Beth is a boss. That’s it! I hope you’ll take a chance on this one, it surprised me in the best way and I am so glad I got to read it!
