Give me Brenda Novak and an exotic location like the Amalfi Coast and I’ll follow her anywhere. Adopted under a closed case, Charlotte Williams-Jackson, a debut novelist and married to an NBA superstar, has been tossed like yesterday’s garbage from her famous husband. She receives a letter explaining that she has a preteen half-sister living in Italy who needs a guardian. With her life in shambles, she heads to Italy to meet her half-sister, taking her best friend Sloane and her brother, Jules with them. What happens next provides substantive issues that must abound in adopted families’ lives- who was my former family? Who is this new family? Also, what happens when you get away from a one-sided relationship and are given the respect you desire. Found family has been written brilliantly.

I can’t thank Harlequin enough for giving me the chance to read this ARC on NetGalley and provide an honest review.
