If you are looking for a story with black main characters, then this is the story for you! India is the baby of the family. She is also an accomplished violinist that comes back to town for a visit. Upon India's return, she has to deal with family secrets, forbidden secret love, and deciding if she is willing to blow up her family for the things she wants. Travis is divorced from India's sister and has been a family friend for years; however, there are also some secrets that he has been hiding from those that he calls friends. There is so much drama from the very start of this story that it became a little overwhelming. I did like the connection between India and Travis, but there were so many times I wanted to throw my Kindle and reach into the story to shake some sense into all of the characters. I am also looking forward to reading future books about some of the secondary characters that we met.
