I haven't read a book in a long time that got to me the way this one did. The moving story of identical twins Kerry & Eve. It's a story about abandonment, love, betrayal and so much more. I was immediately drawn into their world. It's hard to put down once you start this book and it will stay with you long after finishing it. A very beautiful debut novel. I loved it!

Probably one of the best books I have ever read. The story is so heartfelt and heartbreaking at the same time.

This is probably one of the most depressing books I've read. The story revolves around the lives of twin girls, as they are growing up, and also as adults. Even though they are twins, they are so very different from each other. We see firsthand the effects of deceit, betrayal and heartbreak.

I had never heard of the author but saw this book posted on this site. I took a chance on the book and it paid off. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. Its a wonderful book that takes you on a journey that twists and turns and surprises in the end. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Kerry and Eve are twin sisters abandoned by their mother at a young age left to be raised by their father who dies suddenly during their teenage years. The girls are in the middle of a love triangle with their childhood friend Justin. The book takes you down a road of longing, deceit, rage, and eventually forgiveness. Excellent quick read for a weekend or trip.

This story is about identical twin girls who had a difficult childhood and are torn apart by a series of events when they were 17 years old. Thirteen years later, they are brought back together by another big event and must face their past together. A good, quick summer read.
