Triplets Savannah, Samantha and Sabrina Wilde's lives
changed when they were ten years old and their parents died
in an apparent murder suicide. Raised by their grandfather,
as soon as the girls were able to, they got away from the
home that once held happy memories for them. The first one
to return home is Savannah. Deciding to use the vacation
time she's being forced to take to clear out the old house
of her grandfather's things, Savannah isn't prepared to
find out her grandfather thought her father was innocent of
killing her mother and then himself. Nor is she prepared to
see Zack Tanner again. The bad boy turned police chief who
also happens to be the only boy who ever broke her heart.
Zach Tanner knows he broke Savannah's heart ten years ago
but he's never stopped caring for her. When she comes back
to town, Zach sees it as an opportunity for them to have
another chance, all he has to do is convince Savannah. Zach
has his hands full trying to figure out who's responsible
for a rash of vandalism that's plaguing their town and
threatening Zach's job, but when he discovers Savannah is
planning on investigating her grandfather's claim of her
father's innocence, nothing will stop him from helping her
discover the truth. Zach and Savannah both have secrets
from their past they need to share before their
relationship can progress, but with Savannah's hunt for the
truth taking a deadly turn, they might not get their second
chance at happiness.
I have, admittedly, been in a bit of a reading slump the
last little while. So when I reluctantly started reading
Ella Grace's MIDNIGHT SECRETS in the hopes it would drag me
out of the slump, I was not prepared to be sucked into a
story so engrossing, I was more than willing to ignore my
Caribbean vacation in order to finish reading it. From the
start the mystery of how Savannah's parents were killed
sucked me in. Add to it the mystery of Zach and Savannah's
relationship and what happened to them the first time
around and I was majorly hooked. I have not enjoyed a
romantic suspense tale this much in a very, very long time.
Grace does an exceptional job of creating this wonderful
world full of characters that come to life, and I love that
we got to follow Zach and Savannah's relationship from the
adolescent start to the eventual HEA conclusion. We also
don't have to wait for Savannah's sister's books to find
out what really happened to the parents, which always makes
for a satisfying ending. If murder, betrayal, romance and
redemption are the kinds of things that you're looking for
in a great story, then MIDNIGHT SECRETS is not a book you
want to pass on. Ella Grace just hit my auto-buy list.
On a hot southern night, with a storm on the horizon, a
family is shattered. Three beautiful daughters—Savannah,
Samantha, and Sabrina Wilde—go on with their lives, each
significantly changed, as they bear the memory of the
murder-suicide that killed their parents. For years, they
have stayed away from Midnight, Alabama. Until Midnight
calls them home.
Savannah is the first one back, when a grueling case in
Nashville leads the young prosecutor to seek shelter in the
quiet of the once grand Wilde mansion. But when she finds
letters casting doubt on her family’s dark, shameful past,
she realizes that peace in Midnight is a shallow façade and
sinister secrets lurk beneath the surface. Zach Tanner,
once the town’s bad boy, is now the new police chief and
still has a wild hold over her. Zach can feel it, too, but
he hurt Savannah once. As teenagers, they broke every rule
together. Now it’s his job to keep her safe, even though he
isn’t sure who her enemies are—or which ones might be his
own.
