She disappears without a hint of her whereabouts, carrying a secret with the potential to ruin everything Charles holds dear. Time passes, but an innocent outing finds Isabella reliving emotions of love and abandonment she thought were buried. Can she still find the peace and safety she so desires? Or will fate continue to unleash a life of inescapable affliction?

I have thoroughly enjoyed this series up until this book.

This book was no where near as engaging as the previous ones in this series.
