The #1 New York Times bestselling author presents a new novel of a mother and a daughter, of ambition and romance, and of a traumatic past reawakened by a terrifying threat... Adrian Rizzo was seven when she met her father for the first time. That was the day he nearly killed her--before her mother, Lina, stepped in. Soon after, Adrian was dropped off at her grandparents' house in Maryland, where she spent a long summer drinking lemonade, playing with dogs, making a new best friend--and developing the stirrings of a crush on her friend's ten-year-old brother. Lina, meanwhile, traveled the country promoting her fitness brand and turning it into a billion-dollar business. There was no point in dwelling on the past. A decade later, Adrian has created her own line of yoga and workout videos, following in Lina's footsteps but intent on maintaining creative control. And she's just as cool-headed and ambitious as her mother. They aren't close, but they're cordial--as long as neither crosses the other. But while Lina dismisses the death threats that Adrian starts getting as a routine part of her daughter's growing celebrity, Adrian can't help but find the vicious rhymes unsettling. Year after year, they keep arriving--the postmarks changing, but the menacing tone the same. They continue after she returns to Maryland and becomes reacquainted with Raylan, her childhood crush, all grown up and as gorgeously green-eyed as ever. Sometimes it even seems like the terrifying messages are indeed routine, like nothing will come of them. Until the murders start, and the escalation begins...

A tumultuous and disturbing story about unconventional families and struggles to maintain safety and resilience. It might be a trigger for those sensitive to stories involving domestic abuse, serial killers and mass shootings.

“Some people leave a legacy of goodness behind them.”

I‘m shocked I loved this book as much as I did. It seemed long but I think that is because it spans a lot of time. I loved the characters and the storyline. Such a well written and emotional book. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I colored for 3.5 hours today listening to this audiobook, that‘s how into it I was and how bad I wanted to finish it.

Adrian Rizzo has drive, determination, a loving family - and a poet stalker. Raylan Wells works as a comic book artist. For the most part a slice of life sort of story with good people working towards happiness. The suspense elements here were good (though decidedly back burner), but didn't strike me as organic as in Roberts' The Obsession.
This felt familiar, but enjoyable.

The characters are both amazingly brilliant, yet full of flaws. I loved this most recent book with its family dynamics, beautiful friendships and a stalker turned killer. Aiden was almost murdered by her father. She grew up with a fitness icon for a mother and has built her own spin-off empire around workouts and staying healthy. I thought she was such an interesting character. Raylon, a widow with 2 young children is back in his hometown.

This was a great suspense romance, which Nora is well known for. However there are several TR: cheating (small and not main characters), school violence and death of a spouse.

The suspense portion of this book is quite dark, but the love story is really lovely. Another book for #bookspinbingo and #audiojune
