"Joleigh Moore lives an almost-reclusive life on her small farm in Missouri. But when she witnesses the murder of her boyfriend, Mack, she worries the assailants will come after her next.
Planning to hide out until Mack's killers are caught, Joleigh stows away in a neighbor's station wagon and lands in a small Minnesota town. Later, she discovers a large amount of cash in her journal and realizes Mack must have hidden his drug money there. Joleigh now has what the men were willing to kill for.
'Close to Home' was an excellent small-town and rural fictional read. This author gave the reader a captivating story that will keep you turning the pages until the end. The main character, Joliegh Moore, was faced with many challenges in her life, including the death of her parents, foster homes, her adopted mom [Unity] dying, seeing her best friend [Mack] murdered, and moving to a new area to try to survive and start a new life. Will life get any better for Joliegh after the move to this new community? Will Joliegh be able to heal after all that has gone on around her, stay true to herself, and get just what she wanted out of life, which was to be loved?
To find out all the answers to these questions, you must read 'Closer to Home' and see how well the author explains it to the reader.
Be ready for a read with some suitable lessons being taught, and let one see some good people are willing to come to one aid to help. Many times, the help may not come from blood-related family members. As one reads this story, one will see how it all works out for Joliegh. Will she get the love she so wants for herself by helping others?
I enjoyed the epilogue that added to this captivating story.
