As Rose delves deeper into the secrets, she starts to question her own life and relationships which is mirrored in Elise’s journey in America through her relationship with Connie’ which we experience in 1980s flashbacks. . 🌟🌟🌟🌟 This was an intriguing story set in two timelines, the 1980s and present day.
