Wow, this was a great book! It was a heartbreaking book that leaves you feeling pain for everyone involved. Violet having to give up her baby…. When is there ever a right time to blow everything up and reveal this secret to your daughter; the one who was taken away and raised by your sister. Ugh. I felt so many things reading this.

Wow what a heartbreaking read about a family secret that has been kept for 16 years. When Violet was 16 years old she got pregnant and her parents persuaded her that she should give the baby up to her elder sister Corinne to raise. Now 16 years later Violet is pregnant again and feels the time is right to tell Carley the truth only problem is that she doesn’t consider anyone else in this idea and ends up blowing up the lives of everyone in her family. As they all come to terms with what has happened no one will ever be the same and is the damage too much to ever fix. Will she regain her daughter or has she lost everyone for good. There are no winners or losers in this story and I felt for everyone involved but also when would have been the right time to tell the truth. A great read!

I felt a range of emotions while reading this book. Imagine being forced to give up your baby at the age of 16 to your older sister. It is a choice no girl or woman should ever have to make.

This book was heartbreaking and compelling from the very first page to the last, this book completely captivated me. If you’re looking for an emotional and powerful story, this book is a must read. I can’t recommend it enough!

It’s so addictive and I devoured it in one day! The ending was jaw- dropping and absolutely mind- blowing!
