Book Description:
Tory Bodeen grew up in South Carolina, in a small run-down house, where her father ruled with an iron fist and a leather belt - and where her dreams and talents had no room to flourish. But she had Hope, who lived in the big house just a short skip away and whose friendship allowed Tory to be something she wasn't allowed to be at home: a child. After young Hope's brutal murder, unsolved to this day, Tory's life began to fall apart. And now, as she returns to her hometown, with plans to settle in and open a stylish home-design shop, she is determined to find a measure of peace and free herself from the haunting visions of the past. As she forges a new bond with Cade Lavelle - Hope's older brother and the heir to the family fortune - she isn't sure whether the tragic loss they share will unite them or drive them apart. But she is willing to open her heart, just a little, and try. Living so close to those unhappy memories will be more difficult and frightening than Tory could ever have expected, however. Because Hope's murderer is nearby as well...

really good book, I have read dozens of Nora Roberts, romance/suspense/fiction novels and this is definately in the top three. It is a must read. You won't know who did it until the last page

Young woman returns to her childhood home town where her best friend was brutally murdered at 12 years of age. Romance and mystery at its best by Nora Roberts.

You'll never guess how this one ends! I usually figure books out before the end, but this one surprised me. I've read many of Nora Roberts' books, and this is one of my favorites.

Romatic drama at its best! A spellbinding tale about a woman who, though battered in both body and spirit, can never lose hope. Also Hope - her childhood friend who was murdered. She must return home to find herself, and a future with the man she loves. One of Robert's best books.

Very good typical Norah romance+mystery combo. I enjoyed it, but I have to say it all seemed very familiar-I think I've read a similar book before.
