I'll Be Watching You Beverly Barton

---

Ella, sweet Ella, you were meant to be mine. You can’t begin to imagine all the things I want to do to you. When the time is right, I will come for you . . .
A series of hand-delivered letters leaves Ella scared for her life. Someone is watching her. Wanting her. Someone promising revenge.
Desperate for the nightmare to end, Ella will do anything to discover the truth. Even join forces with a man who comes with his own danger warning . .

You just have to picture in your mind, a tiny southern town, in Alabama, where people still believe in the upper and lower class of folks. Then you take the senator's 30 something daughter, who is a judge, still living with her parents, and acting like a little girl. And the housekeeper's son, who claims to be innocent of the murder he sat in prison for 15 years for. And the only job this college educated man could get after paroled, was in his cousins auto repair shop. Here is the base of the story.
Then you add three families, with twisted mixed relationships, deception, dishonesty, illegitimate children, affairs, murders, and small town gossip.
What a story, it flows slow like hot molasses, it is steamy enough to heat up the syrup, and southern to the point that you will want a mint julep while reading it.. There's so many secrets to be revealed, plot twists to surprise, that kept me reading, even though the irrelevant numerous details are numbing at times. ~ Three spoons

I received the book from the publisher via NetGalley for an honest and fair review
