Kalayla was the centre of the story so I believe it was a good title for the book.

I think Kaylaya was the right title for the book. Sure the story centers around 3 women but it was Kaylayla that brings Lena and Maureen together. I was Kaylaya that triggered Lena's buried memories.

I’m okay with the title of the book. Kalayla was the main character of the book. She was also the connection between the women in the book.

For me it was suspenseful and created a vacuum in which we need to read in order to fill. Kalayla was like the connecting character so it could be the reason only her name featured in the tittle.

I think the book's title is short, simple and unique.

Yeah, I agree with you. Besides, I doubt 'Family Ties' would encompass all the elements of this book.

I think the title of the book was well chosen. Kalayla was the driving force of the plot of the novel. It is she who brings all the characters together. I also found her to be the most interesting of all the characters.
