Critic reviews

"Forget the Cotswolds, Jessica makes the Northern English coast sound like the most idyllic place to be." (The Cozy Pages)

Pick it up

The first time I added this book to my library I gave it a try but became boring and I was confused. All these characters were coming and I didn’t know which one was which. I stopped listening after maybe an hour in or less. After a few days I decided to give it a try and I don’t regret it. Everything started to make sense. It was an amazing story! Very interesting too. It threw many things I didn’t expect were coming. It’s a most if you’re on your self love journey. Pick it up!

Enjoyable listen

Also nice to hear about woman supporting woman and friends supporting friends. Made me smile and was a nice change from some of the crime stuff I read.

I loved it

I really enjoyed this book. it had alot of twists and turns and kept me wanting more. and at the end I was content.

A wonderful book

Loved this book and the strength of all the characters- we’ve all dealt with atleast one of these relationships

recommend

good storyline. enjoyed multiple stories with the story. Shed some tears, both happy and sad.

Lovely

This book took me by surprise! Lovely story with surprises along the way. Highly recommend.

deep story

it was a pleasure going on life's journey with the 3 main characters. the book started out a little slow but then picked up and was very interesting.

Heart warming

I love that this story is about these 3 women going through very difficult situations and forming a very strong bond by supporting each other. If you are looking for a story to about strong female relationships, this is it. I did feel like Karen’s situation was a little over the top, but it is still definitely plausible. Overall I enjoyed how Karen, Allison, and Daniella grew through the story.

Wasn’t expecting this

It was just a book I grabbed to read and it was so good. I love the 3 women and them finding their way.

Boot camp sisterhood

Sweat, support and lots of tears. All stories of strength shared by an unlike friendship with a bond that steeled into sisterhood. Sometimes you have to make your own family. We all deserved to be cherished, be brave and take a hold of it .
