Thanks to NetGaley and Avon who provided me with this arc in exchange for an honest review. I've been really into domestic thrillers lately so I was excited to dive into this family drama, but unfortunately it was not for me. I had a really hard time getting into the writing style and while I did find the short chapters enjoyable, the POVs switched a little too frequently for my liking. I think the biggest turn off for me was the "ick" I got from the inappropriate sexual relationships and longing within the family and the way the characters responded to this. I also found the story to be extremely predictable and unrealistic.
