This summer one family will discover that together, they can do anything.
Three generations of Stewart women, all with secrets to keep…

Matriarch Nancy knows she hasn't been the best mother but how can she ever tell her daughters the reason why? Lauren and Jenna are as close as two sisters can be and they made a pact years ago to keep a devastating secret from their mother – but is it time to come clean? Lauren's teenage daughter Mackenzie masks her own pain by keeping her mother at a distance. Her mother, aunt and grandmother keep trying to reach her but will it take a stranger to show her the true meaning of family?

When life changes in an instant, the Stewart women are thrown together for a summer and suddenly they must relearn how to be a family. And whilst unravelling their secrets might be their biggest challenge, it could also be their finest moment . . 

I had been slightly worried going into this book that Sarah Morgan's typical brilliance as the queen of romance trilogies wouldn't translate in her new direction. 

However those fears were unfounded from the first few pages as I found myself drawn into the story.

This is multi generational women's fiction at its best with all the characters incredibly believable, and I loved seeing the chapters from the different perspectives. 

The story focuses on a pair of sisters who are incredibly close but in addition to keeping secrets for each other over the years are also keeping things from each other. 

There are many secrets to be unraveled in this book which helps keep the reader on their toes in addition to a whole host of other storylines that add another dimension to this book. 

If this is just the first of a new direction for the author then I am even more excited than normal to see what her next book will bring. 

Thank you to Netgalley and HQ for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
