Publisher Description

“A smart, taut, mind-blowing thriller full of heartbreak and betrayal that moves along at breakneck speed. Readers will be obsessed!”
—Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of Just The Nicest Couple

Everybody lies. Even the ones you think you know best of all . . .
 
Olivia Bender designs exquisite home interiors that satisfy the most demanding clients. But her own deepest desire can’t be fulfilled by marble counters or the perfect rug. She desperately  wants to be a mother. Fertility treatments and IVF keep failing. And just when she feels she’s at her lowest point, the police deliver shocking news to Olivia and her husband, Park.
 
DNA results show that the prime suspect in a murder investigation is Park’s son. Olivia is relieved, knowing this is a mistake. Despite their desire, the Benders don’t have any children. Then comes the confession. Many years ago, Park donated sperm to a clinic. He has no idea how many times it was sold—or how many children he has sired.
 
As the murder investigation goes deeper, more terrible truths come to light. With every revelation, Olivia must face the unthinkable. The man she married has fathered a killer. But can she hold that against him when she keeps such dark secrets of her own?
 
This twisting, emotionally layered thriller explores the lies we tell to keep a marriage together--or break each other apart . . .

Okay overall

The final twist was a bit too much and slightly ridiculous to me, and I didn’t like the characters of Darby or Scarlett, who I found particularly obnoxious and annoying, at all.

Interesting perspective

Each character tells the story from their own point of view which was a bit of adjustment, but so worth it. Good story with a surprising twist at the end. The theme of infertility is both thought provoking and personal.

Strong start, weak finish.

Olivia is a narcissist and insufferable. Every character is going through similar hardship yet she is always more important. The book starts realistic and ends up with such an unrealistic twist/conclusion it pulls you out of the story immediately. I loved getting the POV of each character it really helped develop each one. Overall it was decent.
