Vanessa's life was forever altered the night her tortured artist husband, Jim Abbott took his own life, jumping off a bridge, his body never to be recovered from the murky depths of the Missouri River. Leaving no insurance behind and plenty of debts, Vanessa has struggled to build a home and a future for her and son Johnny. Two years later, she's a successful realtor, Johnny is a well adjusted artist in training, and she's ready to move on by selling the last of Jim's paintings. At the art show, she meets sexy contractor Christian. Just as her life is falling into place, people from her and Jim's past are being murdered, with a red slash painted across their bodies - similar to what Jim would do to an unwanted work of art. Then the chilling phone calls and misplaced items start appearing. Could Jim have survived his cascade off the bridge?

Cassidy's latest has her trademark strong female character who won't take the terror sitting down, as well as a charismatic hero figure (and nice for a change that he isn't a cop)! In Johnny, she has created a believable pre-teen struggling with his own feelings for his father who was long absent before dying. The novel could stand to be further developed (it is just over 300 pages), for instance instead of Vanessa reminiscing on events of the recent past, Cassidy could have allowed them to unfold to the reader. Secondary characters could have been more developed as well, particularly Jim's brothers and friend Scott. Overall, it's a good story and Cassidy deftly weaves the intricate plot and takes the reader on an interesting journey to find the culprit.

a need to read
Very good mystery and romance.
Carla is a writer that pulls out all the stops. Her books are detailed for enjoyment and slots of action in all her stories.
I discovered this Author about 5 months ago and since then have been buying up her books. I love her easy style of writing, the plots are great, and never think you know who did it. and each book is stand alone, which I enjoy. Write more Carla.
I have just recently discovered Carla Cassidy, and I'm glad I did. This is the second book I've read by this author and I have to admit that I enjoyed the plot, the characters and the story line. A mystery with just enough romance to keep it interesting. I plan on starting another book by her today, can't wait!
This is my first Carla Cassidy book but I did like it. It has the same elements as alot of other books out there, but I have to say this one was well done and I only figured out the killer when the author told us who he was. She leads you on very well and it was a good read.

Vanessa Abbott is a widow, her husband, Jim, was an artist who had mental problems that led to his suicide. She and her son have lived quietly for the last two years, she working at a realty office and spending time in the loving arms of Jim's family. Now she is ready to move on and has allowed a friend to give a showing of some of Jim's paintings.

Christian Conner is a friend of the owner of the gallery where the paintings are being shown. He is not into the artistic communtity and is pleased to find that Vanassa is not either. They meet at the showing and she finds this is a man she would like to know better. With the showing she is finally letting go of the marriage of eleven years to the artist.

But someone is not happy that she has decided to move on. The usual things start to happen. Unexplained roses, moved pictures, old clothing appears, and she begins to wonder if Jim is dead. His body was never found after he jumped off a bridge. As the murders start, no one is able to connect any of the pieces. The murders are all connected to the art community but no particuliar artist.

The police detective, Tyler King, was very well done and I would like to have a story about him. He was unusual in his caring and attitude toward the case. One of the best characters in the book really.

It held my attention, and I liked the romance. Some of it was predictable, but overall I enjoyed the read.
