Fiction by Lucinda Berry
Celeste has worked hard to construct the perfect family for herself after the lost-dad trauma of her upbringing: she pays the bills with her corporate job and her husband David stays home with their four-year-old daughter Rori. But she has only been able to do it by suppressing that trauma and denying the existence of anything negative. Then a series of events causes her carefully built barriers to break and it looks like she may lose it all.
The plot of this book was good with some surprise twists (and some predictable twists too) but it was hard to believe in the characters as real people. I felt like the author just moved them around the way they were supposed to go in the story but they had no realistic internal motivations for the drastic shifts that caused each plot change.
I also read recently by this author: A Welcome Reunion
