This was my summer vacation fiction read and my first from Lynn Austin. It definitely won’t be the last.
Widowed war bride Audrey Clarkson arrives in America with her young son to seek help from her husband’s parents only to find her best friend, Eve Dawson, has been impersonating her for the last four years.

Austin artfully shows love, loss, and jealousy that leads to life-altering decisions.
