A lot has changed in the years since Ambrosia Wellington graduated from college, and she’s worked hard to create a new life for herself. But then an invitation to her 10-year reunion arrives in the mail, along with an anonymous note that reads: We need to talk about what we did that night. It seems that the secrets of Ambrosia’s past - and the people she thought she’d left there - aren’t as buried as she’d believed. Amb can’t stop fixating on what she did or who she did it with: larger-than-life Sloane Sullivan, Amb’s former best friend, who could make anyone do anything.

Best-selling author Lisa Wingate brings to life startling stories from actual "Lost Friends" advertisements that appeared in Southern newspapers after the Civil War, as newly freed slaves desperately searched for loved ones who had been sold away.

When I arrive unannounced at my husband's studio in need of a shoulder to cry on after hearing that my best student, Alex, has died, I see a pair of wineglasses drying by the sink, and my deepest fear is confirmed: my husband is having an affair. Most women would fall to their knees in tears and throw him out of the house - but I just can't bring myself to do it. Instead, I go home and cook a healthy dinner for our children, walk the dog, and unload the dishwasher without complaint. I need this marriage to work to protect a terrible secret of my own....

In the compelling conclusion to the New York Times best-seller Her Mother’s Hope, Christy Award-winning author Francine Rivers explores the sorrow that can tear families apart and the grace that can heal the deepest wounds. Just as Carolyn had formed a stronger bond with her Oma Marta than with her mother, so Carolyn’s daughter is drawn to her grandma more than to a mom who’s caught up in the 1960s counterculture....

What a Great Book!

Publisher's Summary
"If you liked Big Little Lies, you'll want to crack open this new novel by Nicole Baart." (Southern Living)
An engrossing and suspenseful novel for fans of Liane Moriarty and Amy Hatvany about an affluent suburban family whose carefully constructed facade starts to come apart with the unexpected arrival of an endangered young girl.
I have something for you. When Quinn Cruz receives that cryptic text message from her older sister Nora, she doesn't think much of it. They haven't seen each other in nearly a year and thanks to Nora's fierce aloofness, their relationship consists mostly of infrequent phone calls and an occasional email or text.
But when a haunted Nora shows up at the lake near Quinn's house just hours later, a chain reaction is set into motion that will change both of their lives forever. Nora's "something" is more shocking than Quinn could have ever imagined: a little girl, cowering, wide-eyed, and tight-lipped. Nora hands her over to Quinn with instructions to keep her safe, and not to utter a word about the child to anyone, especially not their buttoned-up mother who seems determined to pretend everything is perfect.
But before Quinn can ask even one of the million questions swirling around her head, Nora disappears, and Quinn finds herself the unlikely caretaker of a girl introduced simply as Lucy. While Quinn struggles to honor her sister's desperate request and care for the lost, scared Lucy, she fears that Nora may have gotten involved in something way over her head-something that will threaten them all. But Quinn's worries are nothing compared to the firestorm that Nora is facing. It's a matter of life and death, of family and freedom, and ultimately, about the lengths a woman will go to protect the ones she loves.

Interesting but long winded
The story was great but needed to be edited. It could have been told in half the pages but I enjoyed the story. Too much detail about the setting and secondary and tertiary characters that was unnecessary but the main characters were broad brush strokes. Interesting approach to suspense writing. Though I felt the suspense and climax were flat.

Sigh, unconsciously racist plus convoluted
This book has an interesting premise and moments of excellent writing. However, it is a tangled mess, plot-wise, with semi-developed characters who are often perplexingly obtuse. It is also quite unconsciously racist with wincingly painful hints that one character is... latinx? News flash: a latin last name and brown curls doesn’t identify someone! Of course this exotic guy from a stereotypically warm and open family (yet still clueless to obvious plot points, and he acts very wasp-y) is the only one described particularly, in a way that calls attention to his skin color, while never spelling it out. Everyone else is just “tall, brown hair.” Presumably it goes without saying that they are white? Yearrrgggh. Enough!
