Story
Emmeline lives on a remote island with her father, who teaches her about the natural world through her senses. What he won’t explain are the mysterious scents stored in glass bottles that line the walls of their cabin, or the origin of the machine that creates them. As Emmeline grows, however, so too does her curiosity, until one day the unforeseen happens, and Emmeline is vaulted out into the real world—a place of love, betrayal, ambition, and revenge. To understand her past, Emmeline must unlock the clues to her identity.

Story
Eve has a good life. She wakes up each day, kisses her husband Nate, and heads off to teach math at the local high school. All is as it should be. Except… Last year, Caseham High was rocked by a scandal involving a student-teacher affair, with one student, Addie, at its center. But Eve knows there is far more to these ugly rumors than meets the eye. Addie can’t be trusted. She lies. She hurts people. She destroys lives. At least, that’s what everyone says. But nobody knows the real Addie. Nobody knows the secrets that could destroy her. And Addie will do anything to keep it quiet…

Story
High-powered businesswoman Lana Rubicon has a lot to be proud of: her keen intelligence, impeccable taste, and the L.A. real estate empire she’s built. But when she finds herself trapped 300 miles north of the city, convalescing in a sleepy coastal town with her adult daughter Beth and teenage granddaughter Jack, Lana is stuck counting otters instead of square footage—and hoping that boredom won’t kill her before the cancer does.

Disappointing protagonist
I’m so disappointing in Lucy’s character. She failed to show empathy and insight into the importance of Gab and his situation. What characteristics made Lucy a ‘Pegusus’?. She also claimed to want to be more then just ‘adorable’ but spent all her time with Gab ruminating about how he left her. I could not fall in love with her character at all and in fact, she ended up being the reason for his demise and instead, to me, became the villain of the story. Awful.

Amazing!
This book speaks to me in a way that I didnt know was possible. I feel like Jill made Lucy after the image of the love of my life! I loved listening to her struggle between 2 loves that pull her in two different directions but seem to always intersect. I love her relationship with Gabe and never wanted that to end but also feel for Darren and hope he forever gets to keep such an incredible women.
the fact that it was narrated by Jill herself really brought the emotion in her own words to life. she did a fantastic job.
Thankyou Jill.

What a horrible women
I stuck this story out because it was recommended. The main character was an over privileged idiot that drove me crazy with every decision she made. My recommendation would be to not waste your time.

Shocker
Don’t do it. Even if you’re in the mood for light fluffy chick lit. Predictable and plain boring
