Chloe Carrington believed for over three years that her identical twin sister, Ebony, ran away from her husband and son to find a new life. That is until her dead body is discovered. With no trail, no witnesses, and no clues, discovering the identity of the murderer is a difficult task. Chloe is left grieving once again for a sister who will never return. In her grief, she finds solace in the … last person she ever expects to: Chet Willapana. She knows next to nothing about him. Yet he’s the only one who can help her survive the clashing emotions that threaten to destroy her.
Faced with Chloe’s mental devastation, Chet tries to help her in every way he can, although not in the ways Chloe expects. He was quiet about it for years, and now? He’s done pretending. She soon discovers he isn’t anything like she once believed. He might, in fact, be everything she is missing in her life.
But Ebony’s murderer soon makes his presence known once again. For Chet and Chloe, fear, grief, and need forge a strong connection, one that takes both of them by surprise. Events eventually draw Ebony’s killer out, along with their undeniable feelings for each other. But in order to survive, they first have to discover who killed her sister and why. Fearing Chloe’s safety, because she is the only remaining connection to a dead woman, the man who already murdered her sister is now back to finish the job. This time, once and for all.

I loved reading The Remaining Sister by Leanne Davis. This book flew by. It’s a page turner that will keep you guessing who is Silver Creeks murderer. This book goes back over the ending of The Lost Sister, from Chloe’s point of view. It moves forward from that point. This book the beautiful bond that Chloe and Chet form. What starts out as an odd friendship turns into one beautiful relationship of understanding, honesty, love, compassion & empathy. I was blown away by who the killer was and the reason why.
Chloe finds her own happy ever after. It was with one of the last people she would of ever suspected. I’m looking forward to reading the final book in the Sister Series, The Step Sister.
I enjoyed this book very much and the storyline makes for a very intense read. I will say that the main character is very hard to like or sympathize with here. She’s completely self-absorbed and angry at the world. Given the circumstances it’s expected and understandable to a point, but Chloe takes it to another level with her inner dialogue and navel gazing! Chet is a truly great character, one that I’ve never come across in any romance or contemporary book.
The Remaining Sister is Chloe’s story and it starts a little before the ending in The Lost Sister, so I think it would be better if you read Book 9 before this one. It is just found out that Chloe’s twin sister was murdered instead of her running away 3 years ago. Chloe is overcome with grief and doesn’t know how to handle it. Chet finds her in the restroom. She has a confrontation with Tara at the reception after the funeral for Ebony. Chet hears the confrontation and goes looking for Chloe and takes her home. He is the only one who noticed. He provides comfort for Chloe even though they have really not talked the in the 3 years he has worked for her. Chloe goes back to work and tries to fire Tara, but her whole staff tells her if she does they are quitting. She is told to go home and take more time off work. Chet is the only one who seems to be able to reach Chloe and realize how bad she is hurting. Chloe begins to rely on Chet for many things, but pretty much moves in with him after someone tried to break into her house. Chloe comes to find out Chet is Autistic after Dok has a conversation with her. Chet is afraid Chloe will walk away from him after she finds out, but it opens Chloe’s eyes to his uniqueness and how much he has done for her and why. In the end, Chloe has to rely on Chet to understand her text message to him, her life is depending on it, as well as Tara’s. What Chloe did at the end of the book, totally redeemed her in my opinion because there were definitely parts of the book, I found it hard to like her. This book has so much in it – dealing with grief, Autism, a stalker/killer, so it has many twists, turns and surprises. I did know who the killer was, and was so happy when Chloe figured it out too, before it was too late. Another great book by Leanne Davis.
I cannot get enough of these books! I pick the next one up as soon as I finish the last! Excellent storytelling. I can just feel the emotions rippling off the screen of my kindle. Amazing!
Not sure how this author keeps doing this. This book was filled with emotions. Chloe thinking her sister took off 3 years ago and left her family behind only to find out she was murdered. Chet who helps her get through all of this is something else. Loved how the author kept us wanting more and making us have to get to the end to find out what happens.
Chloe Carrington is in disbelief after believing that her twin sister Ebony ran away from her husband, Ryder, ad young son, Wyatt for the past three years to only discover that she was murdered. Now she must try and deal with Ryder moving on with Tara and finding her own way and dealing with her grief as well as her parents.
Chet Willapana is a bus boy/dishwasher/janitor at Chloe’s cafe and has never even talked to Chloe yet when she is struggling he seems to be the only person who can help her with her grief. Chet seems to know what Chloe needs before she evens knows herself and allows her to grieve and be there for her.
Soon Chloe begins to feel like someone has been in her place and could Ebony’s murderer be after her as well? Will Chloe find what she is looking for with Chet when secrets are revealed?
This is another great book in the series and I was really looking forward to Chloe’s story after meeting her in the first one.
At the beginning of the last book I really liked Chloe with who welcoming she was with Tara. But with the discovery of Ebony everything changed and I could completely understand why and I really wanted Chloe’s side. I knew how much she was hurting and I wanted her to be happy.
I loved how Chet was there for Chloe with exactly what she needed and he seemed to sense so much about her and never asked for anything. He was genuine with how he felt and I was shocked at some of the revelations about him. I loved how Chet made Chloe feel safe and never once thought she was crazy for what she thought was going on with someone being in her house.
The conversation between Chloe and Chet’s mom Dok was interesting with so much being said and revealed but I was super proud of Chloe for not making down on how she felt.
I was proud of myself for figuring things out at a certain point in the book and wrote down my suspicions!
There was a point after my guess that Chloe put everything together and I was so happy that she was able to trust that Chet could figure everything out in time!
I was proud of Chloe at the end for her actions and how it saved the life of another!
The end was awesome!
Such a great book absolutely loved it
The Sister series is just a great and amazing series. I haven’t found one i havent liked. This book had so mant teist and suspenseful moments. I was at the edge of me seat. This book was is well written and the author tackled a difficult story line very well. Great read
Another amazing, emotional, roller coaster and perfect book by Leanne Davis. Oh how I love everything this author writes. I really enjoyed this book and I honestly read it twice before leaving this review. Thank you Leanne Davis for ensuring your readers are throughly satisfied with your work. Great, great book and highly recommended.
I had a hard time connecting with Chloe and accepting how she treated Tara. It took me a while to want to know what happened with her. This book is different from the rest cause Chet isn’t the typical alpha or bad boy. He’s always just been there. How he is hits close to no,e with me too. When we got to the end I was so surprised! That twist!
Chloe has discovered her sister was murdered and didn’t just abandon her family 3 years ago as they thought. Her grief is destroying her and no one seems to be able to be able to help her except Chet. Chet has been her employee since not long after Ebony disappeared. They have rarely spoken and she realizes she has hardly noticed him. Can Chet help Chloe learn to live again.
The Remaining Sister is a continuation of The Lost Sister. I loved these characters. Book 9 has it’s characters dealing with grief that is almost destroying their lives. Leanne Davis takes some really tough circumstances for her characters to deal with. These are situations that real people find themselves in and can relate to. Looking forward to reading more by this author.
This is the 9th book in the series completely standalone we get Ebony’s story the twin sister and ex sister n law of Ryder! Her twin sister was murdered and she’s reeling from that and of course grieving will she let sweet Chet in or push him away? Can’t wait to read the next book!
This ended up being a great book. I really hated Chloe the first 100 pages. She was a complete bit€h. And Chet…I love him! This one has drama and suspense, a grieving sister, grieving parents who have checked out, a mysterious employee who takes care of his boss and lets her grieve, a stalker and killer. Who will be the next victim?
I enjoyed this story. It’s a story of grief, love, and a murder mystery. I love the fact that Chloe fell in love with someone on the autism spectrum.
I cannot get enough of Leanne Davis! The Remaining Sister was just as amazing as the other books in the Sister Series! I loved that there was some suspense, mystery mixed with drama! This is by far my favorite book in this series!
Another great book to the sister series. Chloe and chets story is amazing.
Maybe my favorite Sister book so far. I enjoyed the mystery and drama finding the stalker and murder brought to the book.
Chloe child, you made it really hard to like you. Yes, I know you were grieving after finding out your twin sister had been murdered 3 years ago instead of running away from her husband and son like everyone thought, but taking it out on the innocent woman to whom your ex brother in law had recently fallen in love with wasn’t cool. Thank goodness a man that has worked for you for years, one whom you never truly saw, decided it was time to get involved in your life and make you see how your actions were wrong while also providing you with the comfort and support you needed to get through a horrible time. This man was able to bring out the best in you and helped to also make you see that love isn’t about age, ethnicity or labels. His unwavering support gave you back you strength and courage, something you would need as you are the one that figures out who killed your sister.
