Many thanks to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Landmark for gifting me a digital ARC of this intriguing family drama/mystery by Kelly Simmons. 4.5 stars rounded up!
Hannah is newly divorced with a young son, Miles. Desperate to get Miles away from issues at his school, she moves into a carriage house next door to her sister, Hillary, and her family, husband Ben and daughter Morgan. The sisters have always been very close and mom, Eva, lives close by as well providing support and babysitting. Hannah is looking forward to the cousins growing up next door to each other. But fitting into the wealthy community isn't as easy as Hannah thought it would be. When a young girl in the community goes missing, people start looking towards Miles. Hannah will do anything to protect her boy, even casting the police's eyes towards her brother-in-law. But everyone is keeping secrets here.
I really raced through this book to see how it would all play out. Simmons has crafted a well-written novel to keep you guessing and to draw you into these characters. I absolutely adored Eva and her comments about growing older, being mom and grandparent to such different personalities, and her role in all their lives. What would we do to protect those we love?
