[Douglas Robbins · Rating 5 out of 5]

I wrote this book for my mother who taught me how to love.

[Jennifer Dawn · Rating 5 out of 5]

Deeply gratifying. This book has it all. A story so touching I think I cried the last 40 pages. Family dynamics so real I felt like they were my own family. Love so deep and heartfelt I wanted it for myself. To feel the kind of love and connection felt by the two main characters is something every woman longs to find. This is an amazing book. A must read for any true romantic!

This was a very sweet and emotional journey. It's a quick read with being less than 100 pages. The story felt very personal and I found out later it was. I enjoyed reading it.
