LOVED every second of this book ---- except the ending. That felt too rushed, and left too much to the imagination.

The entire story was feel-good. About healing your own trauma, generational trauma, forgiveness and change, and the power of family and friends. Every single thing happened in the book the way I wanted it to, and I loved every moment.

My only critique is I would've loved to see how some characters end up. It was also a long long build up.... Just to cut it short and rush the last two chapters, not giving me the emotional resolve that I needed.

Still, highly recommend!

My least favorite of all her books. The drama and the unlikeable characters are just too much for a relaxing summer beach read for me.
