Publisher's summary

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jacquelyn Mitchard comes a thrilling family drama that explores the emotional consequences of loyalty, deception and jealousy.

Stunned by her recently widowed father’s reckless behavior, a young woman must learn to navigate a new world—where the people she should trust the most have become strangers she cannot trust at all.

Frankie Attleboro returns home to Cape Cod with thrilling news. She’s met the love of her life, and they’re getting married with a baby on the way. That’s the moment her father makes his own jaw-dropping announcement: at sixty, he’s getting married as well, to Frankie’s best friend, Ariel, who is also pregnant, and due soon.

As Frankie and Ariel struggle to adjust to their new relationship, Ariel’s estranged mother, Carlotta, returns after a decade-long absence. She claims to be a changed woman—but is she really? And where has she been all these years? Frankie is suspicious, and as Carlotta’s unpredictable behavior intensifies, Frankie must untangle the threads of the past to protect Ariel’s future—and her own.

"The characters and relationships are all smartly drawn, and the narrative is shot through with plenty of humor and scandal. Mitchard fans will lap this up."—Publishers Weekly

You'll really feel Frankie's humaness.

This story is a reminder that we all have complicated emtions. However, if we keep trying with each other. we really can forgive and heal. The messy emotions in this story are so very relatable. Family, in all forms, is work that is worth it.

Too long. Too many side stories.

Too many distractions from the main plot. Actually, too many plot lines. Book was too long. Felt disjointed.

Nothing worth reading here

If there Is a plot it’s in the graveyard. Juvenike writing. What happened to this write. The most cloying wandering in nothingness. Save your credit.
