This was the first book I have read by this author and when I say I stayed up all night to finish this book whewwww. I wanted to see what was going to happen next. I finished this book in one day. I am tired this morning, but this was worth it. This book was about 3 women Jen, Kittie and Cynthia who had been friends since childhood. They are all adults now with their own kids. It’s a small town and they all live in the same neighborhood. Now Jen has been through a lot and has gone through a divorce she is a stay-at-home mom looking to get her life back together and find love. Kittie likes to be the center of attention and her daughter is giving her a hard time in life. Now Cynthia is the laid-back friend but she is trying to find out what she really likes and her passion. Her therapist told her to get a journal and write about it.
Then it’s a new man in town, all the women think he is charming and they want to know about this mystery man that just moved in town. Jen has her eyes on him and wants to shoot her shot. All her friends are telling her to go for it. So, Jen finally gets a chance to meet Will and she is over the hill for him. Will ends up growing close to all three women and more and they all have an obsession with him. He breaks up friendships, families and more. As they try to figure out why he is not as close to them and want to just stop by his house whenever they want to get answers. You never know what you may hear or see coming to his house unexpectedly.
Out of all three women Cynthia got the most attached and took it to another level. They find out what kind of man Will really is and is in for a rude awakening.
With that being said, get to know people, ask questions and do research. You never know what kind of person you are dealing with. Real friends wouldn’t do the things that these friends have done. Also go with your first instincts. All these women felt like it was something off about this man but still looked over it. In today’s world a lot of relationships are like that. We see things we just look over it or just settle with it. Make sure to at least let someone know where you are going at all times.
