Author’s Blurb:

Two couples.
Two daughters.
Two sons.
One tragedy.
Too many secrets.

Lauren Rivers has it all.

Two beautiful daughters, a doting husband, and a home that belongs on the cover of a magazine. She also has roots that run deep in the esteemed beach town of Flagport, Massachusetts.

When Evie Sullivan moves across the street, the two become fast friends. Evie is nothing like Lauren’s other friends. She’s quiet, contemplative, and holds steady to her modest upbringing. These are the things that Lauren loves about her new best friend.

But that all changes when Lauren’s teenage daughter, Lily, is in a car accident. As Lauren races to the hospital to see the daughter she’s always put on a pedestal, she runs into Evie’s family. What she finds out next will threaten their friendship forever. Fears set in, secrets come to the surface, and one of the women must come to terms with her past.

3 reasons we think you should read this book:

  1. I kind of have no idea what is going on here, and I love that. This is so vague while also being intriguing. Excellent blurb for a thriller.

  2. It is every parent’s worst nightmare to get a call that your child is in the hospital, and the panic of this situation is bound to escalate the drama coming our way.

  3. Were the kids secretly dating? What does that have to do with the friend? Why are we angry!? I have so many questions!
