Title:  Covered in Coal

Author:  Silla Webb

Synopsis: Carly Jo Simon believed that Colton Weston was her future, but he shattered her heart into tiny pieces. Just like any little girl would, she assumed her daddy would always be by her side. Unbelievably, he turned his back on her when she needed him most, leaving her with no one in her life to turn to for support.
Without options, Carly runs away from the only home she’s ever known, leaving behind her heartache and the betrayal of the two men she loved most.

Seven years later, Carly reluctantly returns to Kentucky. Her daddy is dying of cancer and Colton is nothing like the boy she once loved and left. After her daddy passes, Carly must uproot her life in South Carolina and take control of Simon Coal Company, where she has no choice but face the pain of her past.

Can Carly keep her secrets buried deep beneath the black Kentucky coal and her heart safe from the fiery Colton Weston?

Covered in Coal is an enjoyable read and different from any book I’ve previously read. I love the fact that it takes place in a mining town, and it was so much fun reading! There’s also some suspense to this book. Covered in Coal is one of those books that from the very first page I was hooked! Silla Webb kept the story line flowing nicely, and I was turning the pages as fast as I could!

Colton and Carly Jo are reunited after having not seen each other for years. Colton has never stopped loving Carly Jo, but they both have secrets now. Can they pick up where they left off? Will their secrets destroy them?

I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!
