Both Tory and Cade, to an extent feel guilty about Hope’s death while it weighs on Tori more. Understandably, Cade and his family have never been the same after Hope’s death, and the effects of it are still felt in their familial bonds.
Tory is troubled by Hope’s unsolved murder, and when she reconnects with Cade, there is a familiarity there. I like that these elements simply blend with the story. She sees visions, premonitions sort of, and it is never dissected too much or treated as something odd. Hope was the reason she had some normalcy in her life. I think this is one of the reasons why Hope’s loss is felt so deeply by Tory even years later because she was her best friend and her family. Her home life was unbearable, her father abusive, and her mother unconcerned about her at all. Hope was Tory’s best friend and her solace. This is when she meets Cade Lavelle again, Hope’s older brother. Back to the present, Tory has returned to Progress, South Carolina years later. Then, Hope is murdered, and the way that scene is described and even Tory’s situation at that exact time is tough to read. It starts by showing the cute friendship of Tory and Hope when they are children. The beginning of the book is disturbing to read. The story focuses on Tory Bodeen, who returns to South Carolina years after her best friend Hope was murdered there when they were kids, and she left. Carolina Moon is a paranormal romance set in a small town in South Carolina. It’s something comforting and familiar to me to read her works. I have read many of Nora Roberts’ books over the years.
