The continuation of the novel “Inside.” Adèle has always felt out of place. She was accepted into the family when the biological son of a successful businesswoman and renowned surgeon left abroad to study. For all those years, she heard condemning comments behind her back: “If it weren’t for this girl, Averyan would have returned home! She’s just a replacement!” The children of Veronica and Kirill Kokhov had no contact with each other. They never met, never talked, and didn’t seek to. But everything changes when Averyan decides to return to his homeland after fourteen years. He hadn’t paid much attention to the girl his parents adopted many years ago. Yet now, when everyone around calls Adèle his sister, and his best friend is completely taken with her, Averyan is forced to confront public opinion and his own feelings—because this “not-sister” is far too attractive.
