I read Lingering Echoes before Rumors, so I knew where this prequel was going.  Still, Rumors just added depth and insight to Allie's character.  I feel like this author does a great job with characterization.  I really love the characters in her books, even the ones that Allie doesn't necessarily love.  They all come to life for me.  I could empathize with Allie's pain and her struggles.  Allie's story is one of learning to deal with and overcome the overwhelming feelings of grief, pain, and guilt. Then learning how to redefine the new person she has become.  You need to read both books to get the full story.  Rumors gives a taste of what is to come.  It is well filled out for a novella.  It certainly hooks you so that you want to continue on.  Again, I am looking forward to more from this author!!!
