This book is told from alternating perspectives which is something I always love. We start with Maggie who is walking down the aisle to marry Nico Farinelli. Nico was previously married to Caitlin who passed away before Maggie and Nico became an item. Most of the Farinelli’s think that Caitlin was a saint and couldn’t do a thing wrong so Maggie has her work cut out joining this family.
The other perspective in this book is through the eyes of Lara. Lara is married to Nico’s brother Massimo. From the outside Lara’s life looks perfect. Massimo seems like the perfect husband. But as they always say you never know what goes on behind closed doors.
I loved Maggie’s spirit and nature. She is fiercely independent and not afraid of what others think. Lara on the other hand is always trying to do what everyone else thinks is the right thing. I’ve never been in her situation but I think I am more of a Maggie than a Lara.
I couldn’t put the book down, especially as I got closer to the end I was racing through it I had to find out how it was going to all go down. I have to say I didn’t guess the P reference until it was essentially revealed and I kicked myself for that.
The characters are well formed and the story is well thought out. It will have you on the edge of your seat trying to uncover the secrets. I look forward to reading more of Kerry’s books in the near future.
