Her nephew, Travis, was also in the car, along with Travis s girlfriend. All three are alive but barely. The car was smashed against a tree along a remote and winding road, beautiful but deadly, in their rural Texas Hill Country town.In the wake of the car crash, the close-knit family is tested like never before. Jenna, Travis s mother, blames Jordan as well as her sister, Sandy after reports surface that Jordan had been driving. As the young adults struggle to survive, tension between their parents escalates. But when trust is broken and a shocking family secret is exposed, it creates a perfect storm of harrowing consequences. Rumors in the small town spread like wildfire. When details of the accident are questioned, Sandy and Jenna wonder if their family has been destroyed beyond repair.As always, there s much more to the story if the family is to survive, they will have to come together to confront the terrible truth and overcome their pain. But are some betrayals unforgivable?"

I really liked this book. It was a bit of a morality tale about drinking and driving and the aftermath of such events, but it had a lot more to offer. There were lots of twists and turns and a lot of feelings to tackle throughout the book. I definitely recommend it!

This is a heartbreaking story about a family that is torn apart after a car accident involving alcohol and teenagers. It really is cold dose of reality. If you ever raised a teenager or are a teen yourself, this book will hit hard.

Is this a literary masterpiece? No! Is this book perfect? No! Did this book capture my attention? Yes! Did this book offer twists and turns and plenty to think about? Yes! Did this book produce a tear or two ? Yes!!! I REALLY found this book to hit all the right notes for me. I admit the subject matter grabbed my attention, and the parallels of family dynamics certainly touched a raw nerve. This story was much more than fluff. Thanks #NetGalley

#biblioweekend I started this as a whim on #NetGalley and before I knew it, two hours had passed! Now I need to charge my iPad and get ready for a bbq when all I want to do is get back to this book. Travis & Jordy are first cousins, as close as brothers, and they've been badly injured in a terrible car accident. Who was really driving and what were the circumstances??? As the family waits for news; accusations and past incidents begin to surface

With all the stellar reviews on Goodreads I was expecting a fantastic book, but, alas, this was just a mediocre, run of the mill mystery/family drama. An okay read if you have an afternoon to kill and nothing better to read. Thank you to Netgalley and Lake Union Publishing for an advance copy of this in exchange for an honest review.

[DELETED] 3803335244 I can't stand that, when a book has such great reviews on goodreads & then a flop when you read it. Heading over to read your review. 8y

KrisConstantReader @WrinkledPages it wasn't exactly bad, just nothing special at all. Not horrible, just not great either. In-between. 8y
