Synopsis

This atmospheric and moving novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Flowers in the Attic and Landry series—now popular Lifetime movies—combines a forbidden romance with a family fortune and a young girl in peril.

Caroline Bryer is the daughter of a very conservative TSA agent and former military brat, Morgan Bryer. Her mother, Linsey Bryer, is a descendent of the Sutherland real estate family. Their organized, suburban life in Colonie, New York is rigorously regulated and leaves little room for deviation from the norm.

When Linsey, Morgan, and Caroline attend the wake of their neighbor Mr. Gleeson, they meet his charming daughter Natalie “Nattie” Gleeson, who works for the American ambassador to France. Linsey and Nattie strike up a fast friendship as women of a similar age in very different places in their lives—Linsey a devoted mother and housewife, and Nattie an international diplomat living an independent and freewheeling life. Their friendship soon evolves into a romance, leading to the collapse of Linsey’s marriage and her disinheritance from the Sutherland family fortune.

In true V.C. Andrews fashion, a whirlwind of unexpected death, family estrangement, and a forbidden inheritance become Caroline’s new reality as she struggles to navigate the loss of her mother, the mind-boggling wealth of the Sutherland family (who quickly lock her away from the world), and the loss of contact with her father following the divorce.

Goodreads review by Mai

I didn't have high hopes for a book ghostwritten for an author that wrote literal incest, but this wasn't that bad as I thought it would be. Caroline grows up in a picture perfect family. Her mother, Linsey (I hate the various spellings for this very 80s baby name), is a Sutherland, a big name in the......more

Goodreads review by Judy

This story is somewhat of a comng of age tale told from the point of view of Caroline, a 14-year-old child. Caroline was portrayed as being very naive, which surprised me as she was shown to also be highly intelligent. A little confusing to picture in my mind. It was an interesting book, but not wha......more

Goodreads review by Romy

What even was the purpose of this book? 60% (!!) was build up and it was basically just the MC observing. She had absolutely nothing to say or do. And then her moving to Sutherland and the random ass conversion therapy? And we can’t forget Simon, who is literally like Phillip in Dawn. THE EXACT SAME.......more
