  The Words Between Us - Erin Bartels
                 New Author

#2020keywordchallenge - June -WORDS

Meet Robin, owner of a bookstore and lover of books.  Also meet younger Robin as a teenager when her parents are both arrested and she goes to live with her grandmother, a woman Robin has never met.  So a dual timeline,then and now.   A bit of a mystery, and a bit of a love story.  Nice easy read.

Goodreads summary:
Robin Windsor has spent most of her life under an assumed name, running from her family's ignominious past. She thought she'd finally found sanctuary in her rather unremarkable used bookstore just up the street from the marina in River City, Michigan. But the store is struggling and the past is hot on her heels.

When she receives an eerily familiar book in the mail on the morning of her father's scheduled execution, Robin is thrown back to the long-lost summer she met Peter Flynt, the perfect boy who ruined everything. That book--a first edition Catcher in the Rye--is soon followed by the other books she shared with Peter nearly twenty years ago, with one arriving in the mail each day. But why would Peter be making contact after all these years? And why does she have a sinking feeling that she's about to be exposed all over again?
