Doubleday, 2016. Adult fiction.
Reading this book is like eating a beautiful chocolate éclair. It's gorgeous and it tastes good, but you wonder if it's really worth all the calories!
Catherine West is almost too good to be true: beautiful, wealthy, successful in Manhattan. Her big flaw seems to be that she has not found the right man with whom to share a family. (WHAT??) Then, she meets William Stockton who has to be too good to be true: handsome, wealthy, successful (Get the trend here?) and who vows to love Catherine forever and they plan to marry. But, wait, he has known Catherine's family in the past and remembers intimate details of both her parents and her sister, Caroline, and Catherine as a child. Catherine's mother is now living with Alzheimer's and has flashes of distinctly not liking William. Something is wrong here, but readers will keep going to find out just what it is. Gorgeous details of life in the fast lane and reads smoothly, but is it worth the time? If you want a tale of deception, greed, love, and family, put this one in your beach bag.
