"Why were women expected to both give birth and remember to buy No 2 pencils."

This is the story of a past that Ainsley has left behind in her new life as a chocolate fortune heirs wife who has decided to run for governor. Of course, her past is coming back to haunt her in the form of a skeevy basketball coach at her children's school. With the help of a scatter-brained ex news anchor, who is becoming her new best friend, she finds the courage to confront the past she never wanted to remember and also solve cold case murder of a young girl she once knew. 

I really enjoyed the friendship built between Ainsley and Nikki. This story made me laugh and cry!

this…..was interesting…..started off sooooo good soooo strong but it slowly became a big hot steaming pile of words. not inherently bad, but also not good. very much lost the plot.

4/5 stars - This was one of my Amazon first picks for July. I enjoyed both of the FMCs. I feel like both are very relatable.
