Publisher's summary

What happens when a 15-year-old secret between three best friends is exposed?

Celeste Harper seems to be happily married and living life to its fullest. That’s what she wants everyone to believe, but her failure to conceive a baby and the critical information she is withholding from her husband may demolish her house of cards.

Ginger Brown meets a guy online and invites him to stay in her home. It isn’t long before she finds herself having to ask for permission to go to church. Dirty dishes left in the sink, canned goods not neatly stacked, and missing curfew by just one minute earns Ginger a beat down on a regular basis. How long will the makeup hide the bruises?

Portia Dunn is single and fancy free, but she has a dangerous taste for married men. She enjoys collecting money for her rent and bills. When a wife takes notice of mishandled funds and takes over the checkbook, Portia’s free ride is over. Now faced with having to support her own shopping addiction, Portia puts a plan in motion to make it too easy for the wife to learn of her husband’s adulterous affair.

These three women have shared an unbreakable bond since high school. They’ve also vowed to never make mention of what occurred in a dark, dingy basement during their junior year. When a heated fellowship between them develops into an all-out brawl with name calling, the very subject they’ve sworn to keep buried suddenly emerges. The damsels turn on each other, and war is declared.

Book was okay

Some good parts and some boring parts. Overall the book is okay. I did enjoy God and Bible reference but I'm going to need the narrator to pronounce the books in the Bible correctly.

Enjoyed the Story

I enjoyed the story. Some of the scenes were a bit much, but I understand the friendship between the ladies. The issue that I had was with the narrator. It was so confusing how the voices would change. It was if there were different people reading at different times. It was very strange.

Good Book

This was a good book. I just wish it had a little more excitement towards the end. Also, I can’t help but to point out that the narrator mispronounced Malachi 3… I thought I was tripping when she pronounced it Malahchee…. I said what book of the Bible was that???? Overall, it was a good book and I did love the positive messages that it displayed!

Meh… thankfully this was free

This was meh at best. The narrator was TERRIBLE and the voice changes were beyond annoying. Storyline was pretty basic. No excitement and predictable.
