4.5 stars
One thing I love about Jill Shalvis books is the detail that connects you to characters, the on the job, in the trenches detail that is so expertly woven in. From kindergarten teachers to kidney disease, she walks you through a day in the life and makes it interesting.

This book revolves around half sisters, one of which doesn’t know the family secret. Two sides of the same coin, both of them struggling with life failures and responding in their own unique, yet similar, way. The story is heart warming, although some of the conflict becomes repetitive (hence the half star). I’ve been a huge fan of Jills romances, and wish she could stick with those that she does so well and leave the women’s fiction as the subplot rather than the main story, but I’m still a fan.
