Review:
So, this is definitely a different type of book. I kept hearing about it and I knew I had to read it.
This definitely isn't a domestic thriller like I had thought and that's okay, it was kind of more like a contemporary type of book with a lot of family drama.
Let's start off with Stephen and Heather, Stephen is in his 60's and he's a stand-up guy and a doctor. He is going through a hard time because his wife Pam has dementia and he hires Heather an interior designer to help redesign their home. Well push came to shove and Pam ends up in a facility and Stephen and Heather(who is in her 30's) start dating and they decide to get married.
Now, to add to this mix let's add Stephen and Pam's two adult daughters Rachel and Tully. Tully is having financial issues along with some other issues while Rachel on the outside looks like she's all put together she is having her own issues with relationships and things like that.
Now Stephen is in the process of divorcing Pam so that he can marry his new honey, and then things in the family start unraveling. Secrets that were left in the past are starting to come to light, new accusations about spousal abuse and some concerning circumstances are starting to arise all while the family is getting ready for the wedding, financial disasters among finding out the truth that Stephen, Heather, and Pam have been hiding.
Now, if you like the edge of your seat thrillers like I usually read then this probably isn't the book for you but if you enjoy family drama and deep secrets then this is definitely the book for you!
Thank you Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for the opportunity to read and review this one! It definitely kept my attention and filled an afternoon full of family secrets and drama!
