When Mona meets and falls in love with Jack, the man of her dreams, it's not until her wedding day that she learns the identity of his brother. Denny is a world-famous rock star and, once upon time, Mona's teenage crush whom she would do anything to meet. She finds it easy to keep her youthful longing a secret from Jack and to avoid Denny, because Denny is too busy touring the globe to spend time with his family. But when Mona and Jack, along with their two young sons, rent a house for the summer, Denny decides it's time he gets to know his brother better. Mona can't help but wonder if there is an ulterior motive for his sudden inter- est in her family and if she'll be able to keep all of her secrets with him around. VERDICT This latest from veteran author Baratz-Logsted (I Love You, Michael Collins; Zombie Alley) shines with vividly imagined characters and an unexpected ending. For fans of family dramas a la Emily Giffin and Sophie Kinsella.
