The story follows Tara Connelly after she is released from prison for a drug charge. As she tries to rebuild her life at thirty years old, she returns home to live with her siblings, who are both busy with their own problems. Her brother, a single dad, struggles with the ongoing effects of a brain injury he sustained years ago, and her sister’s fragile facade of calm and order is cracking under the burden of big secrets. Life becomes even more complicated when the cop who put her in prison keeps showing up unannounced, leaving Tara to wonder what he wants from her now.
This book was so amazing. I felt so many conflicting emotions at the same time. Each chapter is from a different character's perspective, so one moment I'm angry at a character for their actions, and in the next chapter I get context to explain their reasoning. The characters were three-dimensional and had lots of growth. I wish the ending wasn't as rushed, because I felt like there was still so much that could have been shown and unpacked. Overall I loved it though
