But a letter arrives that will challenge it all.How do these couples lives connect? What are the secrets? Can you figure it out? I can honestly say that I am usually good at figuring out plot twists and I was clueless. I actually beta read this book, so I read each couple's story one at a time, and then had to wait a bit for the end part. And I was wracking my brain trying to figure out the secrets and how this whole thing was going to wrap up. It was very interesting how she wove three completely different stories together and finally provided the missing link in the final part.By the time I got to the last part, I was surprised. I had some theories. I was really trying to piece it together on my own, but I really did not. So I was shocked and had to wrap my head around it all. But by the time I was done, it all came together. And even as things were becoming clearer, she would throw other little twists in to keep me gasping.This was definitely a unique and different story. I have not read another book like it. It was a fast, easy read but it also made me think and then re-think about things that I had already read. There were parts that were sexy, romantic, sweet, hard, emotional, and mind bending. I liked the characters. The women had insecurities and issues, but they were also strong and determined. The male characters could be really sexy, caring, and sweet, although I did become annoyed with each of them at times. Each couple's story was different and they had their own set off problems. But once it was all said and done, the whole story did make sense and I accepted everything that happened. But it was full of twists and turns along the way.
