Somehow I managed to read this in a day. Once I was a few pages in I just couldn't put it down. This was such an enjoyable read.
It was predictable in the sense the love interest and how everything would turn out. But I didn't mind that. This was everything I needed it to be.
The ending was a little neat. Even down to the changes happening back in London happening just as Lorna would be returning. But it didn't take away from my enjoyment.

Alice and Lorna are relatable characters. I enjoyed seeing both POVs. Alice because despite the fact she wasn't there for the childhood she still just wanted the best for them and the Island as a whole.
While Lorna I understood why she left and had to stay away. But I also felt sad for her. She missed out and her daughter missed out due to this.

This was my first Libby Page book but I definitely want to read her previous books now.
