About this ebook

Tully Morgan hasnÍt been back to Marietta for more than a few brief visits since the night of the 1996 senior prom eighteen years ago, when the chance exposure of a long-held family secret sent her running to her uncle in California in shock. She stood up her date Ren Fletcher that night, and she hasnÍt seen him since. Now sheÍs here for an extended stay, to help take care of her seriously ill mother. ItÍs an edgy reconciliation, the first time that Tully, Patty and Sugar Morgan have been together since that long ago prom night. Tully has had so much anger toward Sugarƒ can she ever forgive her? And Sugar still has one more secret that needs to be dealt with, one that needs Ren FletcherÍs help. Has he forgiven Tully for leaving him in the lurch on prom night? And is there any chance that he and Tully can rekindle what they might once have had, when heÍs still tied to someone else?

Ratings and reviews

4.5 Stars ~ I really enjoyed this book. The characters just creep up into your heart and you're hooked. I really liked that this book was longer than most; it really gives the reader time to get to know the characters. Ms. Darcy has a knack for fleshing out the characters and setting the scenes so vividly. I especially enjoyed the descriptions of eating the decadent chocolate. I could almost taste and smell the experience. Even though some of the subject matter of the story is tragic and sad; Ms. Darcy used love, forgiveness and redemption themes well to ease the gritty, ugly, harsh realities of drug usage. I thoroughly recommend this book.

A great novel of understanding, forgiveness, and love with strong and passionate characters! Thanks.

This was a delightful book, heartwarming and real. The characters became people I would want to know. I'm really glad I was introduced to them.
