Publisher's summary

Who will you cross to protect your own? 

When Hannah packs up her past and moves to the cottage next-door to her sister, she hopes the luxe neighborhood and close family ties will be the perfect escape for her son and the shadows that trail them. But when a young girl goes missing days after they unload their final boxes and her son is quickly thrown under suspicion, Hannah must do whatever it takes to protect her child. 

Even if that means pointing the blame her sister's way instead. 

With investigators swarming and neighborhood scrutiny closing in, the divide between two sisters grows. As one fiercely defends her husband, the other shields her boy from the crime, keeping quiet the secrets that might unravel it all. And all the while, one young girl has vanished, and someone is to blame.

It was weird but really good

I love the mom she would always put a smile on my face when she comes on
Story was to the point not much going around in the characters head (all the could have and should have, can’t stand those stories) the story flowed as it should.

Masterful

Kelly Simmons understands sisters and suspense. Couldn’t wait to get back into my car to listen to the next chapter. I highly recommend Not My Boy!

Unpredictable ending, thrilling to the end!

The family chemistry was real between sisters and the mother. I'm really glad they explained Mile's thought process at the end which was important for full closure.

Disjointed

Characters reached conclusions out of the blue - not enough foreshadowing to make conclusions believable; disjointed

Could be a Netflix show

I was working in a client's house and she got a book by Kelly Simmons in the mail. I asked about the author and she said she is very good and she's local. being a small business owner, i always support local. So I asked her which book she recommends and she picked this one. Not only is the author local, but the book takes place locally (Wayne Pa). I definitely enjoyed it, I can picture it as a show on Netflix. I liked the grandma playing detective lol. I'm looking forward to checking out another title by Kelly Simmons.
