As the winner of a reality-TV singing competition, twenty-three-year-old Sloan has a star-studded future ahead of her until a request from a secret half-sister lures her back to a near-forgotten past in rural Tennessee. Despite stereotypical characters and confusing narrative shifts, fans of McDaniel's soapy romances will appreciate this novel, an equally drama-filled and heart-rending companion to Losing Gabriel.
