Vera figures that a little hush money every month will ensure her husband's fortune is hers alone....

yeS, yES,YES!!!
THIS book?! Invoked EVERY emotion and then some! Sadly, a LOT of it is relatable to real life...especially life in the old south! Ms.Monroe did the dang thang with this one! But I'm not surprised!

Wonderful
I believe these 3 books are the best thus far that I have listened to. They kept up with each others storyline to the t. A complex type of family with a bunch of secrets and you can see why, but what family don't have secrets and Skeletons in the closet?
