I was in one of those mindless scrolls and came across Blind Faith. This one sounded intriguing as it contained an unsolved murder, a family, friends, and a dark secret. The book starts with a murder and running a guy off the road. Then the book jumps twenty years as we are in the present time of 2016 and Lindsay is back in her hometown and working as a lawyer when she is given a box of items found in a crate at one of the places she is working with. Inside was a wallet and the wallet belonged to Father Michael O'Leary, a priest who vanished without a trace back in 1992 when she was 15 years old.

Is it connected? The book then moves over to Carrie...

I am finding it hard to get into books and find time to sit and read a book and get hooked on the story. I figured reading a dark romance would hook me.

Evelyn is also a fighter and dreams of the day she can finally escape; she just has to find the right timing. Enter Salem Tempest - he had lost his path a few years ago and was headed on a downward spiral but the Catholic Church saved him and he decided to enrol in a seminary school and train to become a priest. That was...
