Eliot Gordon would do anything for her family. A 38-year-old working mother, she lives an ordinary but fulfilling life in suburban Atlanta with her partner, Grant Delaney, and their three daughters. The two older girls are actually Eliot's stepdaughters, a distinction she is reluctant to make as she valiantly attempts to maintain a safe, happy household . . .Then Finn Montgomery, Eliot's long-lost first love, appears, triggering a shocking chain of events that culminates in a split-second decision that will haunt her beloved family forever. How Eliot survives-and what she loses in the process-is a story that will resonate with anyone who has ever loved a child.

Add a CommentI could not get into this book. I did not finish it.
I enjoyed this book. It is about family, choices, forgiveness...life. The author also has included an essay at the end of the book about what it is like to be a writer and how she came to write this novel which was very interesting.
I found this book very difficult to get into and ended up not finishing it. I did skip ahead somewhat and it was more interesting near the end. The story could have been told without a lot of the middle of the book and it would have been more interesting. The book was also written or printed in small print that I found difficult to read and there were a lot of words in italics to emphasize the emotions of the speakers. After a bit, this was very annoying.
