Katie Sise

"A brilliant, twisty novel about a missing woman, an unfaithful husband, and the dark secrets that will destroy two perfect families. A scandalous revelation is about to devastate a picturesque town where the houses are immaculate and the neighborhoods are tightly knit. Devoted mother Cora O'Connell has found the journal of her friend Laurel's daughter--a beautiful college student who lives next door--revealing an illicit encounter. Hours later, Laurel makes a shattering discovery of her own: her daughter has vanished without a trace. Over the course of one weekend, the crises of two close families are about to trigger a chain reaction that will expose a far more disturbing web of secrets. Now everything is at stake as they're forced to confront the lies they have told in order to survive."--provided by publisher.

We Were Mothers

COULD NOT PUT THIS DOWN!!!
Absolutely loved this book and all the relationships in it.
Reminded me a bit of Big Little Lies, same genre.
Very, very, very good!!

This one was really good, but the ending did feel a little abrupt. 

The story unravels plenty of lies in a small suburban community called Ravendale. There is an affair, abuse, teen pregnancy, and even a (very small) dose of murder sprinkled throughout the story. You will be kept guessing until the very end, and there is one surprise you most likely wont see coming.
