Publisher Description
From the next "major voice in Southern fiction" (New York Times bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand) comes a new novel about what it really means to tell the truth . . .
After sixty years of marriage and five daughters, Lynn "Lovey" White knows that all of us, from time to time, need to use our little white lies.
Her granddaughter, Annabelle, on the other hand, is as truthful as they come. She always does the right thing-that is, until she dumps her hedge fund manager fiance and marries a musician she has known for three days. After all, her grandparents, who fell in love at first sight, have shared a lifetime of happiness, even through her grandfather's declining health.
But when Annabelle's world starts to collapse around her, she discovers that nothing about her picture-perfect family is as it seems. And Lovey has to decide whether one more lie will make or break the ones she loves . . .
Customer Reviews
A different take on romance books
I’m a diehard romance reader. At one point I was reviewing a book a day. All the same plot idea and you knew who the hero/heroine was from the get go.
This story is a twist of real love. The ups and downs in life and the effects of lies. Some parts I hated, some parts I loved but most of all, I couldn’t predict what was coming next, and that might be the best part of it. Lovey and her granddaughter Annabelle’s stories are more realistic than any bargain dollar romance book. Highly recommend
