My Review:  The novel setting is  four female friends sharing their senior graduation night with each other before embarking on college life that would separate them.
Years later and the novel next chapter leads the reader into the character life of Asami. She is married and has suffered a devastating miscarriage.  
Bonita - Out of the four ladies, Bonita is the promiscuous one. She allowed others opinion to alter her from pursuing her dreams,  however, when she receives devastating news, she decides then that she will do as she always wanted to do and her decisions would be her own. 
Morgan - Married with children living in a very nice home. She and hubby has a comfortable income and has made plans for their early retirement.  Morgan is offered a job promotion that would definitely increase her income BUT its contingent may cause dissension in her marriage. 
Sienna - Her friends are excited about her new salon and spa. What will be their reaction when they  learn of the SECRET she held from them for years. remember, What's done in the dark will come to light.
I found the complex of conflicts among the friends that was most heart felt was Sienna.
I enjoyed reading about each character and visioning their lives. The author did a great job transitioning the characters into a complete story line without feeling as if you were reading about four different women lives without a connection.
My reading pace was moderate and the novel held my interest through the end.  Each character ending was satisfying, meaning the flow of the ending did not feel rushed or incomplete. 

The book cover and title is a good match and gets a 5/5 rating.  This is a good read and sits on my shelf as a satisfying DARN GOOD READ with a review rating of 5/5.
