Pulled Beneath by Marni Mann
Paperback, 244 pages
Published March 18th 2014 by Booktrope Editions
What happens when you uncover years of secrets and find out everything you thought to be true was a lie?
Drew Stevens finds her world turned upside down when her parents are brutally murdered. Soon after, she learns she inherited a property in Bar Harbor, Maine, from recently deceased grandparents that she believed had died when she was a baby.
Drew travels north to settle her grandparents’ estate, but finds more questions than answers as the truth starts unraveling. What she didn't expect to find was Saint, whose reputation is as tumultuous as his past. But the very thing that brings them together is the same thing that keeps them emotionally caged.
With Saint's scars so deep and Drew's so fresh, can the pair heal from their painful wounds or will they be pulled beneath the darkness of their pasts?
My thoughts about Pulled Beneath ~~
Okay, so the prologue of this story was enough to entice me to dive into this book. By the time I finished reading those few pages and find out that Drew's parents had been murdered, I knew I had to keep going. And the author has such a flowing way with her words that it was very easy to get lost in Drew's world.
And then Drew discovers that nothing in her world is what she believed it to be.
'I needed to touch the house, to be in the presence of this secret that my mom had withheld my whole life.'She meets the residents of Bar Harbor, Maine when she goes to check out the house that her grandparents left her, grandparents she was told were dead. She comes to know the people who knew her mother and who might be able to give her some answers. But some of them are struggling in their own lives.
'I was drawn to whatever was broken in him, probably in the same way he was drawn to what was broken in me.'Pulled Beneath is a continuous story of secrets, discovery, and nothing and no one being what they appeared to be. The twists and turns just never end!
And... the story continues with Pulled Within being released this summer. I am excited to take another trip to Bar Harbor, Maine and to learn more about the wonderful people in this community.
