Just like the other novels in this column, unraveling secrets makes for fascinating reading. Perfect are getting a divorce there are secrets to do with babies and jobs… In fact, everyone they meet – from the gorgeous Ty Bazemore next door, to the runaway Maryn who joins them in the house – is hiding something: "I have a confession to make" is the most often-repeated sentence in the novel. But even though they're best friends, it turns out that they're keeping secrets… from each other and from their spouses. Friends Ellis, Julia, and Dorie rent a run-down house in North Carolina's Outer Banks. If the other novels on this list have circled around a secret, Mary Kay Andrews' A Summer Rental offers a whole circus of them. ![]()
