(Thank you to the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book!) |
How exciting! A new book by bestselling author, Karen White. In her latest book, The Night The Lights Went Out...
"Recently divorced, Merilee Talbot Dunlap moves with her two children to
the Atlanta suburb of Sweet Apple, Georgia. It’s not her first time
starting over, but her efforts at a new beginning aren’t helped by an
anonymous local blog that dishes about the scandalous events that caused
her marriage to fail.
Merilee finds some measure of peace in the cottage she is renting from town matriarch Sugar Prescott. Though stubborn and irascible, Sugar sees something of herself in Merilee—something that allows her to open up about her own colorful past.
Sugar’s stories give Merilee a different perspective on the town and its wealthy school moms in their tennis whites and shiny SUVs, and even on her new friendship with Heather Blackford. Merilee is charmed by the glamorous young mother’s seemingly perfect life and finds herself drawn into Heather's world.
In a town like Sweet Apple, where sins and secrets are as likely to be found behind the walls of gated mansions as in the dark woods surrounding Merilee’s house, appearance is everything. But just how dangerous that deception can be will shock all three women...."
