Paige Donahue has always lived in her sister Camille's shadow. As children, Camille had the grades, the friends, and their parents' love, while Paige was left with hand-me-downs and criticism. Now as adults, Camille lives an idyllic life with her husband, Pierce, and her two perfect children in a beautiful home, while Paige is stuck in a small condo with bills she can't afford to pay.

But no more. With seeds of doubt planted in both Camille's and Pierce's minds, Paige's plan to steal her brother-in law starts to work. But when he reveals his decision to make his marriage work, a desperate Paige moves from envy to madness. What results from her dangerous scheme is something no one could have imagined.

Would you try another book from Kimberla Lawson Roby and/or Micaila Millburn?

Probably not. The storyline was pretty unbelievable from the beginning, so it was hard to really get into. I was really disappointed by the religious angle inserted at the end of the story. If this is the author's MO, I definitely won't listen to them again.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

After listening to the book, no.

Unbelievable plot from the very beginning

There were several twists and turns that kept you on your edge of your seat! But, I loved the picture of Forgiveness at the end!
