This book had such an interesting premise with so much potential but it just never got there.
Too much flip flopping between Cassie’s life and Loris. Honestly didn’t care about Cassie and couldn’t engage with her story. Also it was obvious from the start that she was not particularly likeable and that most of her relationships were superficial.
Predictable. Let’s just say I figured out what happened on very early in the book so having to wait while Cassie figured it out was excruciating.
The book was pretty boring, which for such an interesting plot is kind of a feat in itself. Too much preamble, not enough substance.

Yes, as many have said it was a bit of a slow burn, but a great read IMO. The characters in this story are what kept me turning the pages!. Their back stories are interesting. Such as in life they are broken and flawed which gives them a realistic feel. A woman with two families. She is living a lie, until one husband kills the other, or does he?!?
I was left wanting more, another epilogue? I don’t know another book about Cassie? Just more.
I loved the Spanish sprinkled through out as well. It was fun getting to know the characters and it almost felt like I was inside the book. This book is thought provoking and will have you questioning your morality and how far you would go to protect your love, your life, and most importantly, yourself. 100% would recommend
