Description

Neve McKay had always yearned for more than her small Southern town could offer, leaving behind her past in pursuit of her dreams. Nine years later, success has eluded her, driving her to confront the choices she made and the life she escaped. When unexpected circumstances draw her back home, Neve finds herself revisiting old wounds and entangled in relationships she'd thought were long buried.

As she navigates the complexities of returning to her roots, Neve must grapple with the shadows of her former life while striving to carve out a new path. With the familiar faces of her youth resurfacing, she faces lingering feelings and unresolved issues that challenge her newfound independence.

Neve's journey is one of self-discovery, as she learns that home is not just a place, but a thread woven through her heart. The road ahead is fraught with obstacles, but the strength of her determination may just lead her to the future she has always envisioned.

I've been deliberating between 4 stars and 5 stars but I guess I will settle for 4.5.This is a great book with great characters, a great plot and even a twist at the end. However, I felt like there was a little something missing, which is why I can't give it 5 stars. First of all, I really liked Neve and the rest of the McKays. Their relationship was well developed and explained and I liked how they all realized none of them were entirely blameless for the big fallout. I also looved Neve's relationship with Ella Sue and Gideon. I felt that the way the characters responded to Neve's abuse was well done. As a side note, I really liked the fact that she had volunteered and donated money at the women's shelter. Ian was a good love interest, but for me wasn't a great one. However, there wasn't really anything I disliked about him, and I did really like his relationship with Brannon and Neve. Now, one thing I noticed was that there were some spelling mistakes. It wasn't the end of the world, but it did become slightly distracting while reading. The other thing, was that the author heavily introduced the other McKay siblings' stories. While I found the parts interesting, I also found that it partly took away from Neve's story. Further, I wished Hannah and Neve's friendship was more developed. She appeared in the story but it wasn't until more the end that their friendship was introduced. Lastly, the ending didn't wow me, but there was a twist which I didn't anticipate.Overall, I really liked this story and despite some few things here and there, it captured my interest and I'll be looking forward to reading about the remaining McKay siblings. (I'm particularly interested in Moira and Gideon's story).
