The Promises You Keep by Karen Marie Graham
Story starts out with Sydney and she's relocated from TX after her fiance died and her parents are no longer around either.
She was a writer but headed back to teaching the writing subject in a small rural college.
She has her dog Baxter to keep her company and she enjoys the quiet and outside. Love that her cabin has a private path to enter the state park where they jog around often.
She runs into Richard who thinks he knows it all-another teacher but college has allowed her to teach hybrid style. The students do NOT have to actually appear in class, just make sure to hand in assignments.
She gets the attention of one girl Emily and it brings up bad memories of depression-the reason her fiance killed himself. She didn't even know he took meds for the problem and never saw any signs.
She wants to reach out to Emily and even has they psychology dept Brandon look over her assignments. They've never seen Emily as attendance is not mandatory. They follow clues and are able to locate the general area where she's located.
An old woman in a nursing home has some answers as well. All comes down to Emily and her promise to keep is met.
Love how the graduation goes-so cool to see her accomplishments celebrated.
A bit off my beaten path for reading but was a great read after all.
