Us Three
Carmen is at her wit’s end with her rebellious teenage daughter gone train wreck, and a workaholic husband who prefers Las Vegas hotels over family life. With a general disregard for women, Carmen has no desire for friendships or confidants, but after her father calls her home to say her final good-bye to her estranged mother, she inevitably finds herself drawn to rely on two women she’d rather avoid.
Monica’s conniving mother-in-law has moved in for the summer with a mission to make Monica miserable. Janice’s condescending tongue and scornful eyes ridicule Monica’s inadequacies as a parent as well as her lack of domesticity, wreaking havoc on her sanity.
Gabriella worked tirelessly designing and contracting the construction of her and Greg’s empty-nesters dream home, only to be blindsided on moving day by an ultrasound picture belonging to her husband and his mistress. When Greg begs and schemes to keep the baby a secret from their children, Gabby is tormented with whether to follow her head or her heart.
Three women, three personalities, three different phases of life. Multiple layers of real-life drama, deception, and betrayal lure them to each other, forming the glue that binds their friendship.

I didn’t want to put the book down, it was such an enjoyable read. I liked the special bond these women formed and how supportive they were of one another through troubling times. One thing that really drew me into the story was how each woman’s current family circumstance happens in real life to someone everyday - which made the story seem like a true story and not fictional. I also liked how Intertwined in the story were some positive life lessons like trusting your gut, the importance of taking care of yourself and living life forward, not backwards.
