Big Secret, Little Lies Pat Nichols

Dramatic, uplifting story about a family discovering the truth about the past while facing life-changing decisions affecting their future.




Daisy Butler, junior attorney in a prestigious New York law firm, is living the dream. But, beneath the surface a troubling question lingers. Was she hired based on merit or her connection to Curtis Butler, the wealthy grandfather she's never met? When she learns Curtis is the reason for her promotion to senior associate, she is forced to choose. Will she side with her father who is estranged from Curtis for reasons he keeps buried, or will she protect her job and risk breaking her father's heart.




Poppy Butler, Daisy's mother, lives a quiet life away from strangers' stares until investigative journalist, David Lambert, seeks to solve Rose Fowler's thirty-five-year-old disappearance. To help solve her mother's cold case, Poppy reveals secrets hidden in the trunk in her private retreat-the same clapboard shack where she and her sister, Pansy, hid when their mother entertained men to earn a living.




While mother and daughter struggle to protect the family's legacy and unravel secrets haunting the past, Daisy's infatuation with David complicates her romantic relationship with Michael Warner, the wealthy law firm partner who holds sway over her career.
