About the Book

In this gripping tale of secrets, betrayal, and self-discovery, three women face choices that will change their lives forever.

Book Synopsis

Bibi's marriage is in trouble, thanks to her stepdaughter, Scarlett, who has driven a wedge between her and Beau. Frustrated and feeling invisible, Bibi vanishes for a few days, hoping to regain her husband's attention. But instead of the reaction she'd hoped for, Beau reports her missing-along with his family's priceless heirloom jewels. Now, Bibi's escape has become headline news, and she's caught in a web of suspicion she never saw coming.

Kate is wary of the newcomer-who leaves home without their cell phone? Though she hates to admit it, jealousy flares when Silas, her current love interest, fawns over the striking beauty. But Kate has no real claim on him-they've only been on one date. When she spots Silas coming out of Bibi's room during the night, her suspicions grow. Who exactly is this woman, and what is she hiding?

For Shelby, her unplanned pregnancy isn't a mistake-it's a lifeline. She's convinced this baby will fill the emptiness that has haunted her for far too long. Determined to claim this child as hers alone, Shelby refuses to take a paternity test to find out whether Josh or Matt is the father. But the Maybe Daddies are determined to uncover the truth-whether Shelby's ready for it or not.
