Twenty-two-year-old
Sophie Levesque has been guardian to eight-year-old sister Mia since their
mother’s death a few years ago. Luck comes their way when they inherit a small
house in Hobart. Problem is though, they don’t know or have never heard of
Clara Bellinger, the testator, and Sophie is afraid it’s all been a mistake.
As Mia settles well into her new school and life in general, Sophie is not only occupied by her search of what connected her to Clara, but also her new studies and the two men, who suddenly have become part of her daily life - Mark O’Connor, the lawyer representing Clara’s estate, and Zach, the hunk from across the road.

Today's hook :-)
Sophie stared at the attorney,
waiting for some answers. She and her sister, Mia, had been quietly sitting in
Mr. O’Connor’s office for more than half an hour, and had learnt about the
details of their inheritance.
“Who?”
“Clara Catherine Bellinger.”
“Who is she?” Mia asked.
Startled by the subtle sound of the
clock chiming across the road, Sophie’s gaze turned to the window, where she
saw the post office building across the road. It looked impressive and old. Surely,
an old place like this would have its own ghosts — after all, Hobart was
renowned for its lively spirits.
Her younger sister’s gentle touch
on her arm reminded her she hadn’t answered the question, yet. “I wouldn’t have
a clue.”

An interesting introduction to these two sisters. Their relationship is gorgeous, and they care for each other fiercely. Set in Southern Tasmania, what a wonderful place to start a whole new life and find out just how your life got to be the way it was and begin to heal. I enjoyed the story and the setting very much.

This was a very enjoyable read and it left me wanting just a little bit more. I highly recommend it.
4 Stars:
Sophie and Mark are an irresistible match from the beginning. While getting closer and connected to them individually as the story progressed, I couldn't help but want them to be together. This author has a way of endearing her characters and it is easy to fall in love with them. An intriguing story with emotion, love and hope. A very enjoyable read! I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.
