The title of this novel says it all. Neena Lee Is Seeing Things, literally and figuratively. Neena is on the brink of breaking down and somewhat unsure her next steps in life. She has recently lost her brother, still grieves the loss of her mother from years ago, may no longer have a job and her adult daughter and her are not seeing eye to eye lately. When her new young boss calls and throws her a bone for a story that he seems to think won't go anywhere, Neeha takes the chance. It's the 25th anniversary of JFK Jr.'s death and she is being sent on assignment to the island and little white church where they were secretly married from all the paparazzi. Neena is ecstatic that this will get her back on track with having a career again with income and help her to move forward with learning to live with her panic attacks. But this island has some unexpected surprises for Neena as well and with being on a tight deadline it doesn't seem she will ever find what she is looking for until an unlikely visitor appears and makes a deal to help her if she helps him. I really did enjoy this story. It was light hearted but yet dealt with some hard issues at hand and I loved the scenery of the island. Thank you to Suzy Approved Book Tours for the invite and to the author for the complementary novel. This review is of my own opinion and accord.
