I'm speechless. In all honesty, I didn't think I would like it and a few chapters in, I was completely smitten. I loved chapters two and four; although Dominique's story had me in tears and I'm glad she overcome what happened to her. And that epilogue... I wasn't fond of Penelope but both Hattie and her deserved that ending.

I'm glad I read it and encourage others to read it as well.
