Overview:

I am not sure where to start with this review. I love Robin Pearson’s books. They are honest stories that make you wish you lived in the town she writes about. She has a way of making life come alive in her writing, maybe because her characters could be me.

Glory has a secret. One she hasn’t even told her husband.

Adelle comes to town sure she knows what she is supposed to do after the loss of her husband.

Both ladies are about to get shaken to their cores as their worlds collide. Will they be able to find a common ground that will allow them to come to an agreement that they may never get along.

I stayed up way too late one night finishing this novel. Yes, I paid the price at work the next day, but I had to know the ending before I went to sleep. Maybe you can pace out your reading so you don’t stay up past your bedtime, but I don’t regret doing it and I would do it again. In fact, I probably will with Pearson’s next book.
