Walter has received a promotion and life as he and April know it will change. First they move, get new furniture, look at boarding school, then April realizes more will change. As she meets the partners and their wives, she knows there is much she has not been told.

I liked April. I dislike Walter. The partners are on the periphery now. I suspect I'll learn more of them and their wives in the next episodes of this series. I think I know what will be going on. Something tells me I will never like Walter but I do not know if I will like any of the others.

This book is the set up for the series. The world building is good. I feel like April. I'm confused and at a loss as to what to expect and what is expected of April. I hope to find out soon what happens. ( )

Weeks had me on the edge of my seat as I alternated between feelings of fear and excitement for April. From the beginning I felt a sense of fear, uncertainty, and trepidation. As soon as I expected something awful to happen, something positive would happen instead. However, the positives were too good to be true, and you know what they say about things that are too good to be true...

From the beginning, you wonder if her husband is abusive from the way she responds to him. As the story progresses, his demeanor fluctuates and her responses change. April's husband becomes a partner and suddenly their life completely changes. Suddenly they are both on a power trip. The partner's are very interested in April, and we know something is going to happen there, as well as suspect things are happening with April's husband and the partner's wives.

The ending was abrupt, not in a bad way, but in an "I want more!" way. What happens with her kids being sent off to boarding school? What happens with the partners and April? What role do the other wives play? How does April's life change now? 100 pages went too quickly! Must read part 2!!!! ( )
