That Special Kiss — Elsie W. Strother

When young Nicola Penrose, recreation director at a peaceful New England inn, first met dynamic Matt Thornton he accused her of lying and worse. His words seemed even harsher at their second meeting, since he was convinced Nicky had once harmed his dead brother. Then someone left strange notes in Nicky's Puma Island cottage, notes suggesting her parents had been murdered and she herself was in danger. And suddenly the small island became a place of fearful questions. Was there any connection between her parents and Matt's brother? Did someone on the island mean Nicky harm? Although she and Matt had made up their differences, could she trust him? Could she even trust herself to see things clearly once she'd shared that special kiss of his?
