Description
From the bestselling author behind the Magnolia Parks universe and the Never series comes an emotional family drama filled with complicated relationships, unexpected romance, buried secrets, and a mystery waiting to be uncovered.
Georgia Carter has built a life far away from the wealthy South Carolina family she left behind. Living in London, she has made a career out of reading people—using her exceptional ability to detect lies and interpret body language. But despite her success, the wounds from her past remain. Years ago, a painful family conflict created a divide between Georgia, her gay and struggling brother, and the rest of their family.
When Georgia’s father suddenly passes away, she returns home for the funeral and is forced to confront the family she has spent years avoiding. Her return becomes even more complicated when she meets Sam Penny, her brother’s supportive AA sponsor and a man who immediately unsettles the walls Georgia has carefully built around herself.
Despite the tension surrounding the family gathering, Georgia and Sam find themselves drawn together in a way neither expected. But their connection comes with a painful complication—Georgia’s brother has feelings for Sam too. Torn between her own desires and protecting the one person in her family she has always loved, Georgia must decide how much she is willing to sacrifice.
When the details of her father’s will reveal a mysterious inheritance left to someone unknown, Georgia’s unique ability to understand people becomes the key to uncovering hidden truths about her family’s past. As long-held secrets come to light, old conflicts resurface, threatening to destroy what remains of their fragile relationships.
A powerful story about love, forgiveness, family, and the secrets that shape us, this gripping novel explores how even the most broken families can find a way forward—or fall apart completely.
