I love the cover and the title, and it's Lisa Henry's so I was sold.Her style is there, and I love it.

...Aiden's narration is as awkward as his interactions with Cole. ...wow, I really hope this serial telling is deliberate :/Oookay. Read on and it kind of is.

The descriptions of the landscape, the house and, of course Aiden and Cole, two men each enduring their own pain and suffering, managed to put me right there in the story.

This was amazing, and wonderful, and emotional at times. Basically, it was so close to perfect. I would have loved something a little longer, though, because I would have loved a HEA. Don't get me wrong, the ending is hopeful and honestly left me wanting more, but everything wasn't as happy as I wou...

Loved this. There was an unusual quietness to the story, but I found it totally engrossing and moving. The characters felt very present and real. And then there's Dingo Creek--what a great name--and the abandoned quarry, which hover over the story like a creepy, haunting presence, a perfect backgr...
