Her arrival will ruin everything

Kate and Lauren. Sisters who are always there for each other. But as they gather for their weekly Sunday lunch, a knock on the door changes everything.

The new arrival, Jess, claims to be their half-sister, but that would mean the unthinkable . . . That she’s the secret daughter of their beloved, recently deceased father Harry. Their mother Rose is devastated and Kate and Lauren refuse to believe Jess’s lies.

But as the fall-out starts it’s clear that each is hiding secrets and that perhaps this family isn’t as perfect as they appear.

Where there was truth, now there are lies and only one thing is certain, their half-sister’s arrival has ruined everything . . .

                              MY REVIEW:


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Talk about throwing a family in turmoil. Kate and Lauren are sisters and they get together every Sunday at their mom's house for dinner. One Sunday there is a knock at the door. Jess asked if Harry is there. Harry is their dad and had died a year ago. No one believe Jess and they make her leave. Their mom is really upset about this revelation. Kate and Lauren are envious of each other. Not knowing what each other's lives are really like. Kate is happily married and child free where as Lauren has kids and no time to do anything. Then this new person comes into their lives with DNA to prove who she is. It kind of makes Kate and Lauren butt heads on the matter and then the secrets start coming out in the family.
I really enjoyed this and had a feeling how it was going to end.
I received this from NetGalley for review.
