In Lilian Darcy's Late Last Night, she tells of the drowning of Neve Shepherd on prom night and how her boyfriend, Jay Brown tried in vain to find her. Fast forward eighteen years and Jay, now called Casey, is returning to Marietta for work and to find the answers about Neve that have plagued him over those years. His work is far enough out of town to fly under the radar, knowing bad feelings still exist about him there, but he does not know that Neve's younger sister, Kira, works for the same organization. He recognizes her when they meet but also feels attraction toward her and fails to divulge who he is right away. When he does, Kira tells him how she hates him and feels he is somehow responsible for Neve's death.How Casey and Kira resolve her feelings and their feelings for each other and discover the truth about Neve's underlying pain makes for a great read.
