Julie Wyatt's youngest son is dead due to her daughter- in-law's greed. Larry became violently ill and his second wife, Darlene, let him die by purposely not calling 911. Because Darlene adopted Larry's child, Olivia, a product from his first marriage, the child's inheritance can keep her and her boyfriend reeling in money and a fancy life while living in Ollie's home in Rosemont, Alabama. The child is estranged from her grandmother and kept as a tool only to profit Darlene and boyfriend Adam. Running out of money, Julie has reached the end of options to fight for custody of her beautiful little granddaughter. Years have passed and Julie has resorted to begging for help from Myra Rutledge and Annie de Silva from Virginia, sources to be reckoned with, labeled "second string" and working as vigilantes for those losing a child and desperately seeking vengeance to right the wrongs dealt them.

Before hearing from the women, Julie has witnessed a couple of miracles and become a very rich woman. Part of her wealth derives from Mace Carlisle, a billionaire and head of a huge conglomerate known as Carlisle Pharmaceuticals. Devising a tricky divorce from his greedy wife, he takes refuge, along with his rescued dog Lola from ASPC, and his road trip lands him in Rosemont where he meets Julie and rents a beautiful little cottage from her. Returning home after his wife's eviction, his plan to turn the company over to others and move to a quiet life in Rosemont is met with disaster. Julie also has twin sons and twin daughters, all grown up. Together with her daughters, new found friends and their counterparts, revenge is sweet for Julie in the most unexpected and imaginative way as she, at the same time, manipulates for custody of Ollie.

Fern Michaels is one of my favorite authors. I have been reading her work for years. She has definitely done it again! This installment in the Sisterhood Series is a mind boggling tale of creative justice. GOTCHA is packed full of suspense and emotional trauma. Her characters are wonderful and her stories always contain the unexpected twists and turns throughout. She is brilliant in her imagination and plots. Once picking her book up, I have to fight myself to put it back down unless I have literally turned the last page. I am an avid fan of this fantastic author and her colorful creations.

Book Summary

Sometimes, justice is a long time coming. That's the case with Julie Wyatt, whose story strikes close to home for the original founder of the Sisterhood, Myra Rutledge, and her best friend - and fellow Sister - Annie. Julie is convinced her greedy daughter-in-law Darlene had something to do with the mysterious circumstances surrounding her son Larry's death. She desperately wants to get a confession out of Darlene - and to ensure the safety of Larry's daughter, Olivia. As Myra, Annie, and their cohorts dig deeper into Darlene's shady dealings, events unfurl in a way that no one could have predicted, bringing to light the true meaning of loyalty and courage-and the kind of friendship that can create miracles...
