What is the worst thing you can imagine doing? What is the nightmare that has worried every mother since the beginning of time? That is just the nightmare Mackenzie Cooper has been living for the last five years. Now living under the name Maggie in a new town, she is doing her best to move on even if that means becoming an entirely new person. However, when her past shows up on her front door step, there is no escaping it. Maggie's friend is in trouble and Maggie has the power to help her, but it means revealing herself to all her new friends.
I really liked this book! Maggie has been through something awful and it has left her utterly alone. Somehow, rather than curling into herself and withering away, she has found the strength to start over and I find that inspiring. I enjoyed reading about how she finds a new career she loves and good friends, though they may not know everything about her. My only complaint is that the ending seemed rushed, as if the author just needed to wrap it all up before her deadline. This was a book club pick that everyone liked and it lead to plenty of good discussion.
