AT THE STROKE OF MIDNIGHT, THE HEAT BEGINS
On a hot southern night, with a storm on the horizon, a family is shattered. Three beautiful daughters—Savannah, Samantha, and Sabrina Wilde—go on with their lives, each significantly changed, as they bear the memory of the murder-suicide that killed their parents. For years, they have stayed away from Midnight, Alabama. Until Midnight calls them home.
Savannah is the first one back, when a grueling case in Nashville leads the young prosecutor to seek shelter in the quiet of the once grand Wilde mansion. But when she finds letters casting doubt on her family’s dark, shameful past, she realizes that peace in Midnight is a shallow façade and sinister secrets lurk beneath the surface. Zach Tanner, once the town’s bad boy, is now the new police chief and still has a wild hold over her. Zach can feel it, too, but he hurt Savannah once. As teenagers, they broke every rule together. Now it’s his job to keep her safe, even though he isn’t sure who her enemies are—or which ones might be his own.
My Thoughts
I'm not really into mystery/suspense genre but as a reader who often judge the book by it's cover, I just couldn't let this one pass. ^_^
This is the first book in the Wildfire series and the story is about Savannah and Zach. Their story is told in a series of flashbacks and present day. First half of the book is about Savannah and Zach when they were young and in love but eventually broke up. 10 years later- She's an assistant district attorney in Nashville and Zach is the police chief in Midnight. Savannah returns home and she meets Zach again....
In this story, you'll find out about why Zach and Savannah's split up, about her sisters Sabrina and Sammie and about her parents death.
The book isn't perfect- it was slow and dragging at times but I loved the characters specially Zach.
Over all, this is not a bad read. The story will keep you suspense and I was on the edge the entire time.
Will I read the second book in this series? maybe....
I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
