À propos de cet ebook
In this “complex, compelling” novel by the New York Times–bestselling author, a troubled woman uncovers the mysteries of her own past (Kirkus Reviews).
Abandoned by her young mother, unsure of her father’s identity, and raised by her prominent aunt and uncle, thirty-year-old Fiona Range has developed a high threshold for emotional pain. Her recklessness, generosity, and poor judgment have landed her in more scrapes than her affluent family—or small-town community—can tolerate. Beautiful, volatile, and smart-tongued (or trashy, erratic, and wild, depending on whom you ask), Fiona hits rock bottom after she wakes up with a hangover and a strange man in her bed.
Alienated from relatives and friends but determined to change, Fiona turns to the men in her life—among them, cruel and unstable Patrick Grady, who denies she is his daughter. When her gentle cousin Elizabeth arrives home with fiancé in tow, it sparks a storm where past mistakes and current passions collide.
