Liebert, Emily

Aficionados of the TV show Revenge or those who enjoy contemporary psychological suspense set in an affluent society will want to consider.

A beachy backdrop, relationship drama, and a summer fling potential make Liebert's third novel (after You Knew Me When and When We Fall) a perfect summer read, in the style of Elin Hilderbrand or Jane Green.

Liebert's second novel (after 2013's You Knew Me When) does an excellent job of exploring various forms of loss. What begins as a predictable story becomes much more as Liebert tangles and untangles the ties that bind the women as friends, sisters, wives, and mothers. A beautiful account of what it means to love, lose, and remember.
