This book was intriguing in the beginning, then sputtered out for the rest of it. No mind-blowing crazy Freida twists like I'm used to. It just kind of fizzled. There was definitely potential for it, but just didn't go anywhere. I waited forever and a day it seemed for my hold at the library.
The reader gets to see the situation mainly from both Tegan and Polly's perspectives. Tegan is a pregnant woman who crashes her car in the middle of the snowstorm and Polly's husband takes her to their house.

To say this was a disappointment is an understatement….!
The book felt so so repetitive, boring and predicable. 
The first 20 pages were great then went downhill very fast. Honestly felt like we were reading 300 pages about Tegan’s “very sore and swollen left ankle” and calling your unborn child “little tuna” the whole book and often it was a little much. Even the twist at the end with her brother and then Hank was predicable and felt very rushed. Overall it was just too repetitive, very boring and extremely predictable disappointing read from Freida McFadden unfortunately.
