But it's not easy. She deserted them all--and her high school sweetheart--five years before with little explanation, and they've got questions. <p/>Sunday is determined to rebuild her life back on the east coast, even if it does mean tiptoeing around resentful brothers and an ex-fiancé. The longer she stays, however, the more she realizes they need her just as much as she needs them. When a dangerous man from her past brings her family's pub business to the brink of financial ruin, the only way to protect them is to upend all their secrets--secrets that have damaged the family for generations and will threaten everything they know about their lives. In the aftermath, the Brennan family is forced to confront painful mistakes--and ultimately find a way forward, together.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><b>*A <i>Parade</i> Magazine August Pick*</b><br><b>*A <i>New York Post </i>Best New Book*</b><br><b>*A Good Morning America Buzz Pick*<br></b><br>When we leave the Brennans, they are perhaps more flawed than they were at the start.
