I was excited to get to the fourth book in the series Home to Whiskey Creek by Brenda Novak. I have enjoyed getting to know all the people who live in this small town. There has been a new person introduced every book so I was interested in learning about the newest person to come back to Whiskey Creek.
Adelaide Davies, who's been living in Sacramento, returns to Whiskey
Creek, the place she once called home. She's there to take care of her
aging grandmother and to help with Gran's restaurant, Just Like Mom's.
But Adelaide isn't happy to be back. There are too many people here
she'd rather avoid, people who were involved in that terrible June night
fifteen years ago. Ever since the graduation party that changed
her life, she's wanted to go to the police and make sure the boys
responsible—men now—are punished. But she can't, not without revealing
an even darker secret. So it's better to pretend…. Noah Rackham,
popular, attractive, successful, is shocked when Adelaide won't have
anything to do with him. He has no idea that his very presence reminds
her of something she'd rather forget. He only knows that he's finally
met a woman he could love.
Addy was living in the big city and came back to her small home town to take care of her grandmother who raised her. Her grandmother is getting older and having trouble running the restaurant that she has always taken care of but Addy is in the restaurant business so she comes back to help. It is clear from the very begining that this is the hardest thing that she has done because she has to confront the past. She has been running away from what happened in high school since she left but when she gets home she is quickly reminded that small towns never forget. She goes through a lot but Noah seems to be the shining point except she is keeping the secret from him. There was lots of stressful parts with uncovering the mystery of what was happening as well as sad parts as Addy works through her past but it was an amazing book that kept me turning pages needing to find out what happens next. I hope that you check out this book and the rest of the series and enjoy it as much as I have. I think that you will enjoy these quick reads that draw you in and have you not being able to put them down as much as I have.
