I want to say thank you Harper Collins and Goodreads for the ARC.

What did I think of this book ?? When I started the book right away I was drawn in. I liked her writing style and loved it was different.

We met two people who are entirely different but alike. The story of Lore had more of a Mexican flair. Her family was Mexican-American, and took place in several different areas that are both America and Mexico. The result was good. It was fresh, It was different. I will readily admit I had to look up many Hispanic words/phrases as I don't speak Spanish, if I could not get the meaning from the sentence or action. I learned a couple things and that can not be a bad thing. Even tho a lot of Lore's story takes place in the 80's I don't remember the events mentioned. I do remember Reagan and his economics.

We also met Cassie, she is a true crime buff and blogger. She is not Mexican and knows very little of the culture and language but she wants to use her skills to give Lore a voice in her own story. Cassie has little to no family but a great guy. She makes her money as a freelance writer who writes articles to different magazines. While researching Lore's story, she learns more about her self.
Both women have secrets that are life altering.

I was not sure how the author would handle the two marriages of Lore. I will say, it was very well done. Not overly done as a trashy romance, but a way you can understand. This was good for me. There were some times the story seemed to drag but it definitely picked up, a white knuckle ride during the third part. I was constantly wondering and guessing who did it ?? The answer was a twist but a good one that was believable. As it is being revealed, you know who it is. Cassie's secrets also become alive for all to know. She has to face her secrets and come what may do what is right for her. In the end, the author did it justice.

The story that was written by Cassie, does well, and stays true to herself as well as those involved. To me if the ending is bad it ruins the book, on the other hand if the story is bad and the ending is great it changed the story. The author did a great job at both the story and the ending. I enjoyed this book and had to read "just one more chapter".

This is an author I will continue to follow and read.
