On the way home from college for Christmas break, Kara Jones is involved in a serious car wreck. During her hospital stay a family secret is revealed that threatens to tear her family apart, and send her life on a path she was never expecting. Trying to escape her mother, Kara runs out of the house and into the arms of Derek Miller. Kara and Derek went to the same high school, but Kara can’t remember him. Derek on the other hand has always had a crush on Kara.Derek is no stranger to the loss of family, during their senior year of high school, Derek’s family was tragically killed in a car accident.When Kara walks into the pool hall he works at, everything for these two is about to change. Derek is there to support Kara and try and help her through this extremely difficult time in her life, all while she steals his heart again, and brings him back to life.“You’re the only reason I haven’t gone insane yet.”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~“Derek is gentle and loving, and our bodies fit so perfectly together that at this moment I’m positive he was made for me.”If you love suspense/mystery/romance all rolled into one, then this book is for you. The who done it, or in this case who is it, aspect of this book is very intriguing, and will keep you wondering and guessing.I absolutely adored this book. The storyline was well written and I instantly fell in love with Derek. Kate did a great job pulling in and intertwining the lives of Kara and Derek. Once the plot line started playing out, I had a really hard time putting this book down. It is one of those stories where you just need to keep going to find out how it all turns out. On more then a few occasions the angst left me breathless.There is no cliffhanger, but in the end I was looking for more, I was left wanting to know where things ended up going for Kara and Derek and how their relationship ended up playing out. I can only hope there is a follow up book or novella in the works that takes these characters to the next chapter of their lives.**A copy was received by the author/publisher in exchange for an honest review**
