My Thoughts:
This was a great book. Lincoln has returned home after serving a sentence for a crime he didn't commit. He is determined to prove he wasn't the one who killed his father. Meg is his high school sweetheart and always believed him. He rescues her when she is trapped in a blizzard and all kinds of strange things begin to happen around her. While he wants a future with her, he may be putting her in danger from the people who so desperately want him to never uncover the truth.
Meg was a great character. She had moved on with her life after Linc went to jail. She married a no-good man whom she divorced after he went to jail for murder. Linc is a strong, determined man. His search for the truth takes on more than he expected it to. I loved the twists and turns this book took. Just when I thought I knew what was happening, there was something new!
This one is a sure 5/5. Great story!
