Hotel Lilith holds terrible memories for Cait Du Bois.

The darkest night of her life happened within its walls.

Once, she vowed never to return to the place that reminds her of the horror she experienced. But when the hotel is chosen as the location for her high school reunion, Cait finds herself unable to resist the appeal of showing off her new life to the people who once made her existence miserable.

Cait is no stranger to being noticed in public, especially as a bestselling author with an enthusiastic fan base, but back at Hotel Lilith, she was once recognized for a completely different reason. With all eyes on her as she returns to the town she’s spent years running from, Cait finds it increasingly difficult to discern between her fans and foes.

Haunted by the memory of a night that torments her, she resolves to put the past behind her and move on. 

No one knows the truth about what happened back then. 

At least, that’s what she’s always believed. 

Shortly after her arrival, strange things begin to occur. A mysterious package, strange calls, and frightening text messages seem to be just the beginning of the nightmare about to unfold. 

Someone is determined to bring the truth to light. If they succeed, the life Cait has built based on secrets could come crashing down around her. And, if they want her to pay for what she’s done, her lies may be the least of her concerns. 

Someone’s out for blood.

 What was your inspiration for The Reunion?

I initially had the idea for The Reunion when my husband received an invitation for his own high school reunion. I've always been fascinated with stories about returning to your hometown, especially as someone who left her hometown myself, and I thought a reunion would be such a fun way to explore that storyline. Though everyone's high school experience is a little different, I'm sure we can all relate to the feelings of insecurity and trying to fit in as a teen, and wanting to return proudly as an adult. I also loved the idea of setting the book at an old hotel. I'm a huge fan of old architecture and history. I love buildings with dark and sordid pasts and really enjoy getting to set my stories in such atmospheric settings too. So, with my love of old buildings, my fascination of reunions, and my obsession with twisted pasts, I found a really great combination to tell this story, which is really two stories--one of Cait as a teen, and all the nostalgia, emotions, and heartbreak that comes with that time in our lives, and one of Cait as a twenty-eight year old mother and wife, someone who's living her dream, when she must return to a place and relive the memories of a night that once made her vow she'd never come back.

Heidi Lynn’s  Book Reviews

First, I want to thank Kiersten Modglin for providing me with this review so I may bring you this review. 

Oh Snap!!! Kiersten Modglin’s latest book The Reunion had me nibbling on my nails and on the edge of my seat! This book is dark and wickedly twisted! Kiersten, you are the princess of psychological thrillers! You keep amazing me with each book you write! You my dear are an incredible storyteller! The Reunion must be put on the top of your TBR pile as it is one of the best she has written this year! 

Kiersten would love to dedicate this book to the beautiful memory of her father whom she told all her first stories to. He believed in her, cheered her on, and called her to tell her no one would notice that first 1-star review. 

I absolutely loved how Kiersten named her character Caitlin du Bois after a sweet reader. But what I loved even more is that she made her become a famous writer! This brought a whole new angle to the storyline that I just loved! 

One thing I love about Kiersten is how appreciative and thankful to all of her loyal readers! 

Oh I smiled ear to ear seeing one of my favorite boy bands NSYNC mentioned!! 

I loved how this book jumped back and forth from the present day to their high school days. However, I don’t miss those days after reading all the drama lol! 

Kiersten did a brilliant job slowly building up the suspense of all the mysteries that were in this book. 

She does an incredible job making you feel like you are right there with the characters in the book. There were many storylines that she was a part of that I too felt all the emotions. 

The Reunion is one book you will read and at the end go back and reread parts of it.
