the hardest part of this book for me was "how hard would that be to forget your kids?"
I also wanted to punch most people for not revealing to Alice why she and Nick had separated

A love and promise that expands across a childhood, without being in the same country. I loved Collin. He was a very stoic man at first.... I wanted to kick him throughout the book when he would get close and loving to Katie and then change back to a stoic man. I'm glad they are sstarting to find their way in their love for each other and their marriage to each other.... and I can't wait to read the next book!

What a heartbreaking, emotional story. I read this in a day! It pulls you in quick and keeps your attention! But it's also a story of the human heart and the hope we can find in each other in crisis. I can't imagine being in this situation..........but I'd like to think that I'd look after others in this situation.

I burned through this book! (haha see what I did there 😉) This was a gripping, fast paced book that keeps turning out not like you expect it to. I highly recommend it

What fun little novellas! This was my first time reading a book by Donna Hatch. So my absolute favorite was A Perfect Match and was pleased that I can see their story continue in a full length novel, which I promptly put on hold through my library. I flew through these stories.

Charlotte was a frustrating character! But there is pure reason for it, her horrible mother! I loved the dynamic of Clara and Charlotte though once Charlotte softened towards her. The thing that happens to Charlotte with her hand had me cringing. James was so patient with Charlotte, I feel like he loved her pretty quickly. Very cute story of triumphing over your circumstances and letting real love into your life.

What an intense story! Hanna was a master manipulator. She had so many moments that just made me cringe. I started to be fearful for her mom's life way before Suzette herself did. What a hard thing for a parent to go through with their child. I read about 10% of the book one day and didn't pick it up again for a few days. When I got to this book again, I flew through the rest of it. Though crazy, it very much draws you in

What a beautiful story. Forugh did what she loved whatever the consequences. She had many hardships, a lot brought onto herself. But she wanted to write and that's what she did despite her culture where women could have one of 3 professions or be a mother is all.

kind of weird and a tiny bit crazy. I didn't quite like the writing. I found myself skimming a lot of the non-dialogue parts. ended with a crazy woman found to have been murdering boys at this school for who knows how long.
