A gripping novel about a lady whose husband was a shining light in conservative politics, whom she found having sex with a male reporter. The effects on all were devastating. She went to a house in Georgetown her parents had left when her sister Hope was kidnapped from there and was trying to rebuild it and her family of a rebellious teenage daughter and an inventive teen son. It is powerful.
A captivating story about a family recovering from divorce. It started out head on, had interesting plot twists and an exciting ending but very little romance and a few events stretched belief. Faith makes a shocking discovery that tears her family apart and they struggle to adapt.
Woman moves back to her childhood home after divorce. Will she discover all the secrets about the women that lived in the house? Will she discover what really happened to her kidnapped sister…and who her sister really is?
