Maggie Sayer #3
Pretence
For Rae Chapman the months before her wedding should be the happiest time of her life but the same troubling nightmare that disturbed her sleep in childhood has returned once more. Could something from the past be trying to re-surface? Are they only dreams, or long lost memories? Rae begins a journey to find out more about her past and discovers a family secret which throws her world into turmoil.
Lydia appears to have led a life of ease and privilege but now has a decision to make, one she has put off for nearly forty years and one which will shock her family and friends. As time is running out she turns to Maggie Sayer for help but is it already too late?
Linda thought she had escaped an oppressed life when her husband left, but has she simply exchanged one difficult situation for another and how can she support and protect her only child but still do the right thing?
As always, therapeutic counsellor Maggie Sayer seeks to give her best to these clients but is shocked by an unexpected turn of events in her friend’s life and finds that her support is needed much closer to home.

I've never read any of Gillian's books before so this was a lovely surprise for me. This is a truly lovely, heart-warming story of a therapeutic counsellor called Maggie.
In this book we read about her meeting several different clients. Gillian goes on to tell us of each of their stories... Why they need a counsellor & how seeing Maggie has helped them.
I really enjoyed this story & look forward to reading more from this author.
Received in return for an honest review.

Ummm
Started out good, then got boring. Just mundane details of their lives. "YAWN" I rushed thru it at the end, just to be done and find something more exciting.

I found this book to be slow moving with several different story lines and characters. I continued to read it hoping it would improve but it did not. Lacked interest keeping from me remembering some of the characters.
