When an unplanned pregnancy derails Jenna's plans, the daughter of a famous musician instead marries Alex, the love of her life and up and coming punk rocker. To the outside world, it appears she has made a success of her life, married to her high school sweetheart and raising a teenage daughter. Everything seems perfect until she comes home and finds her husband and best friend Airika kissing. As Jenna’s world crumbles, she struggles to find herself and meaning in her life as more secrets come to light. I found Jenna easy to connect with. She starts out as quite naive but by the end of the book, she has developed a spine and has discovered her authentic self. Felicity, Jenna’s daughter, is a bright young woman suffering the normal teenaged angst while trying to cope with the uncertainty of her parents’ marriage and her own new first love. I found myself getting frustrated with Alex for being a weak character and not doing enough to resolve the issues that I believe he is solely responsible for. I struggled with a few of the plot twists that I felt had no relevance and was frustrated that these twists were pulling me out of the story. Though I struggled with several aspects, I found the story to be enjoyable for the most part. It's one that may suit readers who enjoy stories with complex character relationships. (SH)
