There's only been one time that Rose couldn't stop me from doing the wrong thing and that was a mistake that will haunt me for the rest of my life.
Fern Castle works in her local library. She has dinner with her twin sister Rose three nights a week. And she avoids crowds, bright lights and loud noises as much as possible. Fern has a carefully structured life and disrupting her routine can be...dangerous.
When Rose discovers that she cannot get pregnant, Fern sees her chance to pay her sister back for everything Rose has done for her. Fern can have a baby for Rose. She just needs to find a father. Simple.
Fern's mission will shake the foundations of the life she has carefully built for herself and stir up dark secrets from the past, in this quirky, rich and shocking story of what families keep hidden.
Sally Hepworth is an auto read author for me at this point. Not only because she can write a great family drama, but her engagement on social media as an author is one of the best. I absolutely loved The Mother-in-Law so I went into this book thinking I would fly through it. I truly believe this book fell victim to too much hype. I didn't love it like so many others did. I wasn't a fan of Rose or Fern and the book just didn't match what I wanted. I will make sure to pick up the next Sally Hepworth book as soon as possible so that the buzz doesn't affect my enjoyment.
