Yet another of my personal buys. This author is incredible. Her books are often read within a day, as they are such page turner.

Book overview
Everyone has secrets.

YouTube baking sensation April Masterson knows the secret to the perfect gooey brownies. Or how to make key lime squares that will melt in your mouth. But if you keep watching her offline, you may find out some other secrets about April. Secrets she’d rather you didn’t know.

Like where did her son go when he snuck out of the house? What was she doing with the local soccer coach behind fogged windows?

And what’s buried in her backyard?

Everyone has secrets. Some are worse than others.

April’s secrets are enough to destroy her.

I’ll make sure of that.

My Review After Dear Debbie I knew I had to find more books? This author keeps a pace I love, intrigues me to keep page turning and I love that it isn’t spicy. The twists and turns are so good. Always based on real life secrets and human behaviour that is mundane really but with deep dark secrets that families can have, watching things unravel and let the truth shine through. Sit down grab a hot chocolate and live these lives through the pages and escape the real world.
