Piercehaven

The island harbors a dark secret, but God's about to light it up. 

Emily has moved to a remote island off the coast of Maine to start her dream job—high school English teacher. 

At first everything seems perfect, a dream come true, but soon Emily notices a few things seem off. Can an entire town really be this obsessed with basketball? And why do some of the athletes seem to be protecting some big secret? 

Emily is tempted to be distracted by the handsome lobsterman, but is he in on the secret too? Why won't anyone tell her what's really going on?

The more Emily learns about this island, the more she knows things need to come to the surface. But there are a lot of islanders who want to keep it all buried. If Emily pushes, she might lose her job. She might lose the lobsterman. 

Emily will have a choice to make. Should she risk everything to make things right?

(This is the first book of the Piercehaven Trilogy, but it is also a standalone novel.)
