My Review: For a short story this book packs a lot of detail in all of the right ways! I completely enjoyed the characters Meredith goes through some pretty some life altering moments but in the end comes out stronger and better for it I felt. This is a great story with a very interesting plot. The scenes in Compass North are very well written and gives the reader more of a realistic view. I enjoyed the book I just wish there was ore of it. I hope to read more from author Stephanie Joyce Cole.
4/5
