This was the first book I've read by this author, and I can't say I was impressed.
The story line was boring - the plot just plodded along. I kept waiting for something exciting to happen, and it never did! This is a story of lives intertwined, and I had a hard time keeping the characters straight, because none of them were very memorable: the spoiled younger sister, the career girl who can't keep a man because she comes on too strong, the stay-at-home mum who thinks her husband is cheating on her. Yawn.
As I was reading, I would catch myself mentally drifting off - I honestly think I finished this book only because by the time I figured out nothing was ever going to happen, I had invested too much time to NOT finish it.
Even the twists at the end were not particularly shocking, and the characters reactions were not very believable.
This book has received 4/5 star reviews on Amazon UK, but I can't see why. I was really disappointed in this book.
