In the 12 years since she left her childhood home in Spokane at age 18, Cassie has lost touch with her sisters Karen (older) and Nichole (younger) and her now-deceased parents-she didn't leave on the best of terms. She paid dearly for this youthful mistake, because the man she ran away with gave her a life that was more of a nightmare than a fairy tale. Eventually, she became strong enough to escape her abusive marriage and move with her young daughter to Seattle, but her sisters did not welcome her with open arms. After a few years back in her home state, Cassie turned her life around; she even met a man who might be the antidote to her disastrous first romantic endeavor. The only thing missing in her life is her sisters, but will they ever be able to forgive her for leaving them and their parents behind? Verdict Fans of best-selling author Macomber ("Cedar Cove" series) will not be disappointed by this compelling stand-alone novel. Also for readers who enjoy women's fiction centering on the sisterly bond and/or the psychology surrounding the victims of domestic violence. [See Prepub Alert, 10/5/14.]-Karen Core, Detroit P.L.
