Ella is expected to rush home and pick up the pieces, which she does. All that changes when she receives a phone call from her mother, letting her know that Tara has given birth and abandoned her newborn son. Since reaching adulthood, Ella has distanced herself by living in Austin, away from her Houston roots – and maintaining carefully set boundaries. Her self-absorbed mother made life a living hell for Ella and her sister Tara – who had to deal with everything from neglect to attempted rape. Though it wasn’t an out of the ballpark hit for me, I was a solidly enjoyable read.Ĭalling Ella Varner’s childhood “difficult” would be an understatement. ![]() Of course, I enjoyed this one as well, just as I suspected I would. I suppose I’m saving them all for a rainy day (like Dreaming of You which I’ve never read…I know, I know!). Until Smooth Talking Stranger, I hadn’t even tried one of her contemporaries. ![]() I’ve liked every Lisa Kleypas book I’ve ever read, and even loved some of them, but somehow I don’t manage to keep current with her books. ![]()
