This is a three part series.  This is the first one in the series and sets the tone.Sarah “Red” Ryder is broke.  So broke that she starts selling anything and everything she can just to make rent.  So broke that she counting how many tissues are left on the toilet paper roll. She does not know what to do before she ends up homeless except call her estranged grandmother who she has never met.  She writes her an email and is surprised when she hears back from her with a deposit of  $30,000 in her account. Not only that but her grandmother invites her to visit her.James Wolfe has been a friend to Red’s grandmother. Wolfe is the man that meets Red on the boat dock.  However, Wolfe makes Red believe that he is someone else then the famous author, James Wolfe.  Wolfe has other motives for making Red stay on the island with him.I was really excited to read this.  I set aside time in my day for this one. I knew coming in that this book was short and that there were going to be three parts to this series. However, I was a little disappointed.  I was hoping that this would have a little more with the characters together before it ended.  There was not enough for me to decide whether I liked or cared about these characters.  I have read other novellas that were short if not shorter so I know what to expect or not expect from a novella.  The story gives us information on both of these characters individually, but together there are maybe two scenes.  I felt like they met and The End.  I hope the second book in the series allows me to connect to the characters.I received a copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.
