i read this ARC in a fever dream; I need a re-read to fully form my incoherent thoughts. True Crime things are not my oeuvre, so the concept of two sisters going on a podcast road trip to try to find their estranged mother who may or may not be connected to a serial con artist (thank goodness not unaliver) was a bit of a stretch for me, but but but kate clayborn never disappoints me, and wow the romance in this is so luscious when it starts paying off.

ALSO the mother//daughter dynamic between older sister Jess to her little sister Tegan was so lovingly explored in all of its messiness.

more to come, but definitely a must-read by my beloved fav author (i am biased and pals with kate)

thank you to Kensington for the very early copy
