I thought this book was VERY well written. This was my first Peter Swanson book, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. 

Abigail meets a stranger, Scottie, on her bachelorette weekend, and she has her last fling before the ring. They part ways, but Scottie reaches out and lets Abigail know he is in love with her. Abigail moves forward with her wedding to Bruce, and Bruce takes her to a surprise destination for their honeymoon. 

Heart Pond Island is only accessible by plane, and it is “off the grid.” There’s no cell service and limited electricity. Although Abigail is feeling a little worried about not being able to reach the outside world, she embraces her time away from screens. Things are going well, until Abigail realizes Scottie has shown up on the island. 

What I liked:
Untrustworthy characters
Cult-like storyline
Fast paced

What I disliked:
Wanted more details at the end of the book
