Great book. I can't wait to see what happens next with the multiple story lines going on and of course multiple secrets. I did, however, guess the secret at the end of the book before I reached the end. So predictable, maybe. But no character line is resolved in this book, but rather leaves you to guess what the next book is going to reveal.

I really liked this one. I am not sure I am going to be able to wait for the next book! I did not guess the secret as some other reviewers said they did (but maybe I am slower about it or really didn't want to guess it. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I recommend it to all Beverly Lewis fans.

I have to agree with some of the other reviewers that this is not typical Lewis style. I ended this booking feeling like I had not gained anything.. I felt like the author talked in circles a lot and I felt very little, if any, connection with the characters. I'm planning to read the next book in the series and am hoping it will get better.

A little slower at the start than some of Beverly Lewis's other stories, but it picks up more depth & intrigue near the end. She's very good at exploring the many nuances of interpersonal relationships. I'm anxiously awaiting the next installment!!

This is the first book by Beverly Lewis I have read. I have the other two books in this series and plan to get as many more of her books as I can. I could not put it down. It was very good.
