Thank you to Net Galley for the advanced copy of this book. I always look forward to a new Sarah Morgan book and this book was no exception. As usual Ms. Morgan has a somewhat dysfunctional family in the centre of her plot. The twists in this book make it exciting from start to finish. Once again the author's book has many different emotions running throughout the story, love, hurt, jealousy, regret but most of all forgiveness. The three main women all have strong characters but are extremely different in nature, however their family bond ends up being stronger than anything else as they find their way back to each other. This is going to be a terrific summer read when it comes out for those who pick it up. It is a great story that will hold your interest and you will find it hard to put the book down.

⭐️ Overall Rating: 3.5/5 ⭐️
Plot: 3.5/5
Characters: 4/5
Spice: 1/5 (open-door)
Would recommend: Yes 👍🏻

Loved the plot, but didn't love the writing style. Too therapy-esque + repetitive. Felt like the author was trying to hit a word count rather than actual substance to the story. 
Still, the sisters grew on me and the ending was sweet. The twist (if you can say that) was predictable.
