Make Up Reading

3 1/2 out of 5 stars Thank you to Netgalle and Graydon House for allowing me to read an advanced copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review. Thursday's husband Seth has two other wives that she has never met. When Seth told her that he loved her and wanted to marry her he informed her that he wanted to be with her and wanted to marry her even though he has a wife already. It seems that his other wife does not want to have children but he loves her and wants to stay in a relationship with her as well. He also informs her that he grew up in a polygamist household.  She agrees to what he wants because more than anything Thursday just wants to be with him.

With judgmental and snobbish girls, secret societies and the honor code, as well as being in a new country she wonders how and if she will survive.  J.T. Ellison is really good at slowly revealing secrets and characters true personalities and this novel is no exception. She leaves you interested in where the story line is going. This is a fun, twi...
