This wasn't my favorite Lucinda Berry book. It frustrated me that the main character just couldn't tell the truth. I've also never been in the position of being raped, but to then just run away. She also runs away and ends up in this perfect little town where she has a life and is accepted and finds another guy. The chances of that? Slim. It just seemed weird that she just ran away. Granted she thought she killed the guy. But ummm....he raped her? So, there's that. This was worth the time to listen but definitely found almost all the characters annoying. The husband was not understanding enough, the best friend is an asshole for being with her husband now, the main character was annoying because she couldn't get out of her own way, and the child was a brat. It was just too much all for one book. ( )

I'm not sure how I feel about this book! Its listed as a thriller, psychological thriller.....to me it wasn't.
There were parts where I found myself actually thinking "how in the hell could a mother think or do the things Celeste thought or said".
But as selfish as she was I get (sorta) where she came from! She was scared and running away from her problems.
I don't know this book was ok.... But also I didn't like it. Weird. The ending omg total letdown.
Its a short quick read. With very little action or thrill factors added in the mix.
Good story just wasn't lit. ( )
