Jenna
Mills' A Cry in the Dark, I
feel is her best story yet. As a long
time fan of Mills, I say this with conviction after reading every one
of her
previous stories. Liam and Danielle are
the strength of this story and Ms. Mills' writing is insurmountable.
The
passion of the story, the intrigue and questions needing answered hood
the
reader and the fast pace keeps one glued to the pages.
Liam and Danielle are different, yet similar
characters. Each feels the desperate
loneliness and misguidance in their souls.
These realistic emotions are felt by the reader and
weave their way into
their hearts. The lurking questions, the
curiosity, the Family Secrets all hold the reader spellbound.
Jenna Mills’
claims book one of Family Secrets: The
Next Generation and sets the stage for a powerful series. Ms.
Mills'
writing will be a hard act to follow. A
Cry in the Dark blew me away from start to finish.
Unbelievable and stunning!
