3.2.2018 - The Pact

The Pact

Many thanks to NetGalley, Bookouture and S.E. Lynes for the opportunity to read and review this great book - 4.5 stars!  Also thanks to my Goodreads friends - they were raving about this book so I had to read it! 

This is an addictive story and draws you slowly in and keeps you tight in its grasp until the end - you won't be able to put it down!  So many themes in this book - social media, family relationships, secrets - along with really great writing.

The story is told in the voices of a family triangle - mother Toni, daughter Rosie, and Toni's sister Bridget.  Toni and Bridget survived a traumatic childhood - the sisters made a childhood pact to protect each other.  Then an accident kills Toni's husband and she becomes super protective of Rosie, who begins to rebel against her mother's tight reins.

I don't want to give anything away because this author was so good at developing these characters and backstories - the end actually made me gasp and filled in even more blanks.  Highly recommended!
