Amy Lange returns to the family’s summer cottage on Outer Banks, North Carolina, where she and her brother, Ben, used to surf. Instead of looking forward to time with Ben, she’s there to investigate his death. Curtis Ireland lives down the road in the house he shared with his sister, Gina. Now he’s the caretaker of his orphaned niece, Raine. What appears to be a love story between two heartbroken people quickly turns into a smart tale of deceit and mystery.
Mourning their siblings and searching for answers throw Amy
and Curtis together in a pool of turmoil and stress. Colleen paints an inviting
picture of the North Carolina coast as the backdrop for this suspense filled
read. The ebb and tide of the ocean reflects the rhythm of the relationship
between Amy and Curtis as they try to find answers. Not far into the story a whirlpool
of trepidation pulls the reader in and doesn’t let go until the final, unexpected
twist.
If you pick up a copy of Rosemary’s Cottage, expect to lose
some sleep. Once I met Amy and Curtis, I was hooked and couldn’t stop reading
until I found out the truth.
