First time author for me, but I enjoy her Pretty Little Liars series on TV. While I enjoyed the book, the pace at times was very slow and meandering. It wasn't until the last third of the book that it really piqued my interest in the characters. They were distant to me and hard to relate to. Overall, not a bad read.

A family is thrown into chaos as an adopted son, who has always felt an outsider, is held accountable for a tragedy. As the scandal unfolds, old secrets linked to the biological son and the past come to light. There are dark, hidden reasons for their emotional distance.

Two families held together in a tangled mess of questions and secrets must come together to uncover the truth and answer some difficult questions. But the answers may not come easy, and they may not be the answers wanted.

Sometimes what you plan for may not be what actually happens, no matter how carefully laid the plans are. And sometimes what you think you want turns out not to be what you thought it was...or what you ever wanted at all.
