The Inn at Ocean’s Edge (Thomas Nelson, April 2015)

Claire’s visit to a luxury hotel in Maine awakens repressed memories, threatening all she holds dear.

In 1989, Claire Dellamare disappeared from her own fourth birthday party at the Hotel Tourmaline on the island of Folly Shoals, Maine. She showed up a year later at the same hotel, with a note pinned to her dress but no explanation. Nobody knows where Claire spent that year—and until now, Claire didn’t even know she had ever been missing.

But when Claire returns to the Hotel Tourmaline for a business meeting with her CEO father, disturbing memories begin to surface . . . despite her parents’ best efforts to keep them forgotten.

Luke Rocco lost his mother under equally mysterious circumstances—at the same time Claire disappeared. After a chance encounter reveals the unlikely link between them, Claire and Luke set out together to uncover the truth about what happened that fateful year.

With flashbacks swimming just beneath her consciousness and a murderer threatening her safety, Claire’s very life depends on unscrambling her past . . . even if her family refuses to acknowledge it. Someone—maybe everyone—is hiding something from Claire Dellamare, and it will cost her everything to drag the truth out into the light.

 

USA Today bestselling author Colleen Coble has written several romantic suspense novels including “Tidewater Inn,” “Rosemary Cottage,” and the Mercy Falls, Lonestar, and Rock Harbor series.

 

My thoughts on The Inn at Ocean’s Edge:

I have long enjoyed the works of Colleen Coble and this book is no exception.  I love the mystery surrounding Claire Dellamare and her disappearance as a child.  There are some wonderful twists and turns within this book and the ending is definitely unexpected!

Who is Claire Dellamare?  Is she really who she thinks she is?  And why does this strange Inn she swears she’s never seen bring back so many memories?

Oh this is such a good book with many twists and turns.  I don’t want to give too much away, but Claire is going to learn so much and grow too.  She’s going to find family she never knew and question the one she has.  Plus we’ll meet many characters along the way.  Like Luke.  Oh the romance that is going to bloom between those two!  I can just feel it!  Oh and did I mention Claire finds out she has a sister?

If you love murder and mystery then this is the book for you!  It is wonderfully written and will keep you spellbound!
