If Only She Knew

This was such a fun trip back in time! We go back to where it all began, the start of the Bloodson Bay curse...

Having devoured the first two books in the series, this brought us back to where it all started back in 1836 when Bloodson Bay was founded. Peace (Bloodson) has grown up in Bloodson Bay but under the shadow of the family/town curse. There has also always been extreme animosity between the two most prominent families in town, the Bloodsons and the Valances, but no one ever really knew why and Peace is now struggling with her own crush on one of the Valances, making it a true Romeo & Juliette kind of situation. To find out why though, Peace, her brother Chris, and their good friends, Tara and Jonah start digging where no one wants them looking, and what they find surely puts them in danger themselves.

This was such a fun trip back in time! Not only did I truly enjoy all of the 90's references that I remember well, it was so much fun coming across fun easter eggs, for those of us familiar with the series, and most of all, the backstory to where this fabulous series began. Watching the very start of Tara and Chris's relationship was so heartwarming and after finishing this one, I'm jumping right into the next book in the series as I just don't want to leave Bloodson Bay!? (especially now that we know the REAL story!)

Highly recommended series and author!!
