So many timely topics! Sisters, a generation apart. A cheating husband. Reverse domestic violence. Caring for invalid parents. Unplanned pregnancy. Teenage angst. Personal fulfillment. Career change. Any one of these could have been the basis for a novel; all of them together made you really think!
Justine the older sister and her ‘perfect in her parent’s eyes’ younger sister Adele, are pleasant to each other. There seems to be no real familial bond other than genetics. Over the course of the book, becoming closer knit as a family, being able to help each other, understand each other, learning to love each other and themselves, while acknowledging their personal faults, seems to be the overarching theme.
I enjoyed the book. As a Northern California resident, I did find discrepancies in the location, but I also understand this is a novel and knew I would have to get past that to enjoy the story.

I loved this book! The characters were very believable. I really enjoyed seeing how the sisters became closer over the course of the book. I have read many of Robyn Carr’s books and enjoyed them all, but something about this one really affected me.
