Great cast of characters in this romantic suspense of reunited childhood sweethearts and a killer who is exacting revenge on those he thinks wronged the heroine from high school to present day.Twenty one years ago things went bad for Alex Colton and February Owens who had known each other since she was 5. After the destruction of their relationship Feb's life spiraled out of control. She married a man that abused her and  after leaving him she decided to leave her friends and family and wonder from state to state. After her parent's retired she decides to come back to help her brother run the family bar. Then one morning coming into work Feb finds a body in the alley behind the bar. This sets off the search for a killer targeting people Feb was either friends with or knew.Feb has never dealt with or talked about what happened 21 years ago. By the killer targeting those around her this forces changes within her family and also for her and Alex to come to terms to what really happened all those years ago.The killer was appropriately labeled "whacked" in the book and that for sure accurately describes his reasons for doing what he is doing.  The author did a great job of giving us clues throughout the story with us finding out a lot of things at the same time the characters did so you were shocked right along with the characters.From the opening murder to the final confrontation with the killer to Alex and Feb working through there issues in between you are on the edge of your seat wondering what is going to happen next.
