Shay has never felt more lonely in her life ..
at 31 years old, having just lost her job, about to be homeless, the man she loves is in love with someone else ..
she’s desperate for a change, for friends, for anything to help her hold onto life.
Until the Moore twins somehow cross roads with her life, and she wishes for nothing more than to be their friend, and to be one of them.
Soon however, she’ll come to know this comes at a very high cost.

I’ve read a few of Sarah & Greers books and I quite love it . The twists and turns are always shocking, the writing is so immersive and gripping. But.. Alas, this book wasn’t all that.
Don’t get me wrong, this book was definitely filled with unhinged ideas and unexpected surprises, but still, it didn’t hit as hard as the other books.
From the beginning of the book, you know the Moore twins are bad news, why? Who knows..
we keep discovering new revelations throughout the book but the main story behind all of it is literally revealed at the last 10% of the book!!
A lot of it was predictable and expected. It felt so dragged out and so fast and rushed all at the same time.
I wasn’t a huge fan of the way this book went about all the major events happening, nor did I like the ending as much..
It felt so bland, in my opinion.
Also, Some parts don’t make any sense, to be honest.
