There were parts I loved and parts I could have done without

The Secret Between Us by Barbara Delinksy is truthfully painful. A good novel but with so much guilt that you really start to feel like it's you in the story. It's a can't put down book til the end so that you can see if things come out for better or worse.Deborah Monroe is mom, daughter, sister, ex-wife, and prominent town doctor to a quiet little town in New England. Highly respected and loved, independent, honest to a fault has her life upturned by one little incident. Oh, is it little or

This book is the story of Deborah Monroe and her daughter, Grace. One night when Grace is driving home with her mother from her friend's house, a man comes hurtling in front of their car.

The Secret Between Us seemed to be a decent book at first and moved forward fairly quickly, but the story wrapped up far too neatly and the main characters are too goody-goody.

This book was very slow moving. I never really got into it, I just kept reading because I wanted to know what happened in the end. It was very predictable and not very exciting.

Deborah's dad worked my last nerve a good portion of the book but ultimately he learned something too. This may be closer to a 4.5 for me
