Publisher's summary

In their own opinions, they were the Windy City’s Elite: beautiful, successful, well-kept by their husbands and parents. For Julene Davis, these were the friends who had been chosen for her, but not the friends she would have chosen for herself.

They’d stuck together, however loosely, for most of their lives. They certainly didn’t confide in each other the way real friends would, but, thanks to the streets, they still managed to accumulate plenty of scandalous and intimate information about one another—things they would never discuss openly. And there was one thing they all knew about the streets: despite a little misinformation, there was always some truth to every rumor. The streets were reckless in that way.

When Julene eventually cracks under the pressures of hiding her family’s problems and her own insecurities, while remaining socially acceptable, she vows to leave Chicago and never return. When she learns her parents have stolen her identity and filed for bankruptcy in her name, her plans for independence suddenly become much more complicated.

As her world, built on lies and illusion, becomes increasingly unstable, she wrestles with an unsettling question: What will she do when it all falls down?

Written with Reed’s signature talent for creating complex characters and compelling storylines, this third book in the Trust series is the captivating look at what happens when we must choose between fitting in and standing out.

Note to Readers: The books within the Trust Series can be enjoyed in any order. The first book, Trust, introduces the main characters and highlights the values of sisterhood and friendship. However, each main character has her own story to tell. Therefore, the subsequent books are meant to provide a more intimate view into each woman's life. What has shaped her? What motivates her? What are her secrets?

It All Falls Down shines a light on one character's past and helps us to understand how personal insecurities and family secrets have influenced her choices.

Good Morning Beautiful provides a glimpse into the life of a woman who must master the art of self-love before she can learn to receive love.

These stories of love, friendship, faith, sisterhood, and personal exploration will take you on a journey that will leave you laughing, crying, and reflecting. Looking for stories that will make you think? Looking for stories that will make you feel? Looking for stories that your book club can discuss?

African American book clubs, Black book clubs, Women's book clubs, Booktok, TikTok, Bookstagram, BookTwitter, and Goodreads have enjoyed these Books by Daines. Isn't it time you enjoyed them too?

The toxic family dynamic

It shows what happens when you care more about image than people
This is dangerous when raising children. The mother was narcissistic. I wanted to see more story development with the father
Excellent book… would like to see a sequel

Great story line

I disliked that I don’t know what happened to Jolene’s dad and how did she help her mom at the end of the story.

Finding Your Path

This book is quite the awakening for someone trying to live an authentic life. The protagonist was dealt many unfair hands (situations) but was able to play them to the best of her ability to
make her way to her purpose.
