I have really enjoyed some of TAH’s books in the past….but this one left me feeling like I was glad it was finished. I love family drama….and the premise of this promised to be a great read….Mother dies and her three very disparate daughters have to satisfy a last caveat.

I did not feel any type of attachment to any of the characters and did not really feel a connection to the story. It was a miss for me.

Thank you to Net Galley for this ARC

I enjoyed this but not as much as her previous book. Probably a 3.5 star read for me.

Of course, I wished for more of the mom, Marti.
"She. It's Marti with an i."

"Physical books that you purchased from a store in person or took out from the library" - yes, my favorites.

"I'm confident that the universe will take care of it." Always a good reminder.

Another book with a man stepping in to help a boy. Similar to "Finding Perfect" by Robyn Carr.

"Little Women" as I was also reading a biography of Louisa May Alcott
