Kindle Unlimited Review: ‘The Secrets of Lost Stones’ by Melissa Payne

July 24, 2021 by Tahlia Newland

This Kindle Unlimited review is of ‘The Secrets of Lost Stones’ by Melissa Payne, a moving and engaging literary fiction book. It’s described as ‘A soul-stirring novel about the bonds between mother and child and the redemption that comes with facing the past and letting it go’, and I agree that it’s exactly that. It’s just one of the great indie books that you can get on Kindle Unlimited.

If you’re a devourer of books like me, then KU is a good option. I find it hard to find Kindle Unlimited Reviews, however, which is why I’m reviewing books on Kindle Unlimited here. It’s good to know that a book you’re hearing about can be got as part of your subscription.

Book description

Thirty-two-year-old Jess Abbot has lost everything: her job, her apartment, and—most heart-wrenching—her eight-year-old son, Chance, to a tragic accident. Haunted by memories and grief, Jess packs what’s left and heads for the small mountain town of Pine Lake, where she takes a position as caregiver to an eccentric old woman.

A rumored clairvoyant, Lucy is strange but welcoming and immediately intuits Jess as a “loose end” in need of closure. But Jess isn’t the only guest in Lucy’s large Victorian home. There’s also Star, a teenage runaway with a secret too painful to share. And the little boy with heart-shaped stones, who comes with a hope for reconciliation—and a warning.

Soon Jess learns that she’s not the only lost soul running from the ghosts of the past. She and Star have been brought together for a reason: to be saved by the very thing that destroyed them.
