Underneath It All - Biel, Kathryn R.

Résumé :
Her life was perfect-or at least, that's what Marg Kensington told herself. After a chaotic childhood, she had worked tirelessly to build a world of order and control: a detail-obsessed husband, two well-behaved children, and a picture-perfect home always ready for its social media spotlight. Even a genetic mutation that led to a breast cancer diagnosis in her thirties couldn't derail her plans. Marg had faced it head-on with preventative surgeries, determined to keep her life on track. But perfection isn't built to last. First, her breast implants are recalled, dragging her back into a whirlwind of health concerns she thought she'd left behind. Then, she discovers her husband has been pouring his attention into someone else-his girlfriend. Suddenly, her perfect marriage is over, her kids are pushing back against her every move, and her carefully curated life is falling apart. The only place that still feels safe is her BRCA support group, a circle of women who understand her struggles. But even that space is disrupted when a man joins the group, stirring up emotions Marg isn't ready to face. With her fa?ade of perfection crumbling, Marg is forced to confront what's real: her fears, her failures, and the possibility that she's been chasing the wrong kind of happiness all along....

Sommaire:
Marg Kensington has the perfect life. No really, she does. A husband who's as detail-oriented as she is, two great kids, the house, you name it. The only thing not perfect for Marg (pronounced with a hard g, get it right), is the fact that she carries the BRCA-1 gene mutation. Marg won't let something like cancer stop her. Instead, she's being proactive and saving her life before she gets sick. A small bump in her perfect road. But that bump turns into a massive sinkhole when her breast implants are recalled, and she finds her husband has been cheating on her. Now faced with health crisis after health crisis, a failed marriage, and rebelling children, Marg can no longer keep up the facade of a perfect life. It's time, with help from a most unlikely source, to realize that facades may crumble, but it's underneath it all that really matters....
