This book starts off with an exceptional first chapter that honestly made me nervous that the rest of the book wouldn't live up to the standard set. This fear was unfounded as this story absolutely delivered!
I am very picky when it comes to dual timelines because I find myself loving one and not caring about the other. With this book, however, I was equally invested in both timelines. The book was also wonderfully paced where it felt impossible to put down.
This is my 2nd book to read by Jennifer McMahon, and I can confidently say I am a fan!!! Can't wait to continue to read the backlist!
