Every parent’s worst nightmare is receiving a phone call that their child has been in an accident or other crisis. Natalie Falcone is notified on her way to celebrating her 19th wedding anniversary that her daughter Arden, a freshman in college, and her niece, Rory, have been badly injured from a fire in their dorm room. Rory’s father, Vince, co-owns the restaurant Double along with Natalie, and is persona non grata due to a bad investment he recently made, forcing the girls to attend a small college instead of their dream colleges, a prestigious art school for Arden and Harvard for Rory. Cara Buckley delves deep into family relationships as well as Arden and Rory’s forays into adulthood, and the reader becomes entangled along with the characters as they struggle with friendships and love.
