I liked the overall plot and the writing style, but I was waiting for some big twist that I never really felt materialized. All of the secrets being revealed were pretty obvious, and the other threads like Rob and the biological parents kind of just fizzled out and were ruled out in an underwhelming way. The ending reunion also felt a little too neat and wrapped up to be believable. Everything going back to normal so easily and quickly was just a little too perfect. Otherwise, an easy domestic thriller to binge.
