How long can the terrible secrets of the past remain buried? As the caskets of her adoptive parents are lowered into the ground, sixteen-year-old Jessica has no idea what her future holds. All too soon, however, she finds herself forcibly separated from her sister and sent to live with an aunt she has never known. Aunt Carson, a high-society gold digger, will do whatever it takes to get her hands on Jessica's sizeable inheritance-even if it means betraying her own son, even if it means resorting to murder. About the Author: Melanie Lane Wells began writing poetry when she was twelve years old, but it wasn't long before she moved on to storytelling. The idea of the main characters of Jessica and Nathan from Secrets of Sandy Cove came to her when she was about fourteen, but the motivation to write their story did not flow from her until she was a married woman with children. To date, she has completed her second book, Sacrifice, which is a modern-day Romeo and Juliet/Mob story. Today, Melanie and her three children live in Ludowici, Georgia.
