"Wow. What a ride" Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Standing outside of my sister's mansion, with its prime ocean views and floor to ceiling windows, I look at my baby niece and realize just how little I knew about Lexi's new life. And how easy it was for her to keep secrets from me...
The day that Amy gets the call, her whole world falls apart. Her younger sister Lexi has been killed in a tragic boating accident, along with her husband. Despite being estranged for the last ten years, Amy never stopped loving Lexi, and the news crushes her.
But Amy is shocked when she discovers she is set to inherit Lexi's beautiful mansion on Palm Beach, all her fortune... and her newborn daughter.
Amy is stunned - how did she not know her own sister had a baby? And when the police reveal that they are treating the accident as suspicious, Amy starts to question everything.
Did she ever really know her sister? What secrets has Lexi been hiding? Can Amy protect her baby niece, or will the truth cost her everything?
Fans of K.L. Slater and Valerie Keogh will be obsessed with The Aunt, another utterly thrilling read from Courtney Psak.
