What Amazon Says:
A wirlwind romance. When Theodora Scott met Connor - wealthy, charming, and a member of the powerful Dalton family - she fell in love in an instant. Six monhs later, he's brought her to Idlewood, his family's isolated winter retreat, to win over his skeptical relatives. Theo has tried to ignore the threatening messages on her phone, but she can't ignore the footprints in the snow outside the cabin window or the strange sense of familiarity she has about this place. Then, in a dusused cabin, Theo finds something impossible: a phot of herself as a child. A photo taken at Idlewood. Theo has almost no recollection of her earliest years, but now she begins to piece together the fragments o her memories. Someone here has a shocking secret that they will do anything to keep hidden, and Theo is in terrible danger. Because the Daltons do not lose, and discoering what happened at Idlewood may cost Theo everything.
This was a pretty good book. I have read two other Marshall books and have liked them both. This story flows well and there is good character development. The mystery keeps you wanting to continue to read to see where it is going. I was a little surprised by who the killer was. The ending wrapped up the story nicely. I did find the family a bit too hard on Theo - sometimes I think authors take the hate too far. But that is a personal opinion.
