This was a good book! It is about the balance of a marriage, family dynamics and of course the always present secrets found in every family. Eve and her sister Willa grew up in a very strict fundamentalist family. Eve survived rather well except she never feels quite good enough. Willa became an alcoholic. Eve marries Cooper who comes from a prominent southern family. He is struggling with his business. Eve, on the other hand, took a hobby and is turning it into a successful business. That is causing some problems in the marriage. Their daughter, Gwen, is a teenager who is starting to get into trouble. When Willa comes to stay in the guest house as she tries to get her life back together, the dynamics of the house really start to change. Willa and Cooper have some issues with each other. But they are involved in a car accident. Eve doesn't understand why they were even together in the car. Cooper's explanation doesn't make any sense to her - and indeed after talking with the medical staff she finds out that it couldn't be true. Yet keeping up appearances might trump finding out the truth.
A good read that will keep you interested.
