Lila Fisher is perfectly fine. At least, that's what she tells everyone because it's easier than explaining why she disappeared for two years after her mother's death. Easier than admitting she's drowning in guilt, grief, and everything she can't take back.
But coming home doesn't bring healing. Her father can't look at her without seeing the wife he lost. Her brothers ignore her like she never existed. And Steven, the only one who ever truly understood her, is still furious she left.
The only place Lila feels safe is with the Conklins, the family her mother once chose for her. Laurel Conklin, the woman she was named after, welcomes her with open arms. But comfort can't erase the damage.
As old wounds reopen and long-buried secrets rise to the surface, Lila is forced to confront the truth: she's not fine. She never was. And if she doesn't stop pretending, she might lose everything - again.
