The Secret of You and Me by Melissa Lenhardt

4.0

This book has been on my TBR for such a long time, when it became available on Hoopla I knew I had to get to it. I was pretty much hooked from page one; so much family drama, secrets and lies. This book is set in a very small minded Texas town. So with that said there is on page homophobia, and racism. I will say that for the most part I feel like both were handled with care, but there were times I think my jaw hit the ground. I love the duel POV, and being able to see how both women grew from teenagers and seeing how they now live their lives. I will say that IMO this is definitely more chicklit/women's fiction than romance. Yes there was a love story and yes it was the point of the book, but we really get a lot of personal growth and family drama in this book. I could totally see this as an ABC drama!
