It's not everyday when you come across an author as talented as Susan May Warren. With her 4th Deep Haven novel, My Foolish Heart she grabbed my attention and with her stellar historical romance, Heiress she earned her place on my must read list! This latest contemporary romance in the Deep Haven series entitled You Don't Know Me has proven that this lady has staying power when it comes to variety and new themes in Christian fiction.
You Don't Know Me has us back in Deep Haven following yet another one of its finest families. The Deckers seemingly have it all, great kids, a home and Nathan Decker is even a shoe in for mayor. Annalise Decker however had a great big secret that although it's 20 years old is bound to catch up to her. With the appearance of her "Uncle" in Deep Haven she's sure that her life is going to fall to pieces and potentially her entire family's lives could be at risk. She has to decide whether to let everything out to her husband about her past life and risk losing him or leave to protect her family and lose everything she's worked so hard for.
You Don't Know Me has everything I look for in a book, great characters, unpredictable twists and turns and a happy ending. I was a little worried at first that I wouldn't like Annalise for keeping so many secrets, especially from her husband but I could see her reasoning behind it and her fear. The other relationships portrayed in this book between Annalise and her children were definitely authentic and I liked that even though they seemed like a calm, cool, and collected family on the surface they all had their issues that mirror a lot of families today. Also, I know that this wasn't labeled as a suspense novel but it definitely had that feel from the first page. If you're thinking of shying away from this book strictly because it's a mushy romance, don't do it because you'll be missing out. I think that even some of the guys out there will like this one! If you're into a good suspense novel or books that examine family issues check this book out. If you haven't read other Deep Haven novels each stands alone so you don't have to worry about confusion or major spoilers if you decide to read this first.
