"Bronwyn's mother is late. Again. Sitting on the edge of the sidewalk, waiting, Bronwyn figures she's flaked out again. She's always flaking out. Stomping home ready for a fight, Bronwyn is met by a cataclysmic tornado heading directly toward their run-down trailer. Bronwyn barely escapes with her life. Her mother isn't as lucky. Enter Senator Soliday, a.k.a. Bronwyn's estranged father, who shows up at the hospital and takes her home with him, to a family she's never been a part of, to people who have proved again and again they don't want her. Confused, resentful, absolutely raging, Bronwyn enters a world she's never been privy to, while reeling from the news that her mother wasn't killed by the tornado but murdered. Torn between two identities: the daughter of a single drug addict and the middle child of a well-respected senator, Bronwyn is forced to navigate through this new, unfamiliar life alone and with a gut feeling she can't shake. Her mother's killer isn't unfamiliar"--Amazon.… (mais)

Homewrecker really surprised me! I went into it cautiously optimistic and was hooked from the first page. Bronwyn feels so real. I felt an instant connection with her. Her mother was an addict who definitely wasn't mother of the year, but she loved her the only way she knew how. When she dies in a tornado, Bronwyn is forced to live with her father, a wealthy man she only met once before. When she finds out her mother was murdered before the tornado hit, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about her mother, her friends, her absent father, and herself.

The mystery doesn't take long to guess, since there's only two real suspects. That's not what really drew me in, though. It was the drama. Deanna Cameron really seems to have a way with this genre and I can't wait to read what she writes next.

Aside from the grammatical/spelling errors that I'm sure will be fixed before publishing, this was close to a 5-star read for me.

Bronwyn might be a teen, but she often feels much older thanks to an absent father and a drug addict mother. She pays the bills, cooks the meals and bails Mom out of jam after jam. All she wants is to graduate and get away. When a tornado smashes through her town, destroying the trailer she and Mom share, it takes her from an old crisis-taking care of her mother, to a new one-being scooped up by her rich dad who's a U.S. senator and being cared for by family.
She struggles mightily with her new reality, but as she starts to look more closely at the family dynamics now surrounding her, she can't help but wonder whose truth is stronger, the one her mother created for her, or the one surrounding her now. Reading along as she sorts everything out, coupled with the eventual identification of the person who murdered her mother makes for a very satisfying read. ( )
