another great book from rosie. what a great read, i could not put the book down, it is a tear jerker, can;t wait for the sequel. a must have book.

Another amazing novel by Rosie Goodwin
This book is more than just a tear jerker. It reads almost like a biography. This book is a MUST for any reader of "saga" type fiction. Rosie's characters are as real as it is possible for them to be. The storyline grabs you and holds you with each turn of the page. In my opinion this is Rosie's best novel yet. Please keep them coming.

Outstanding
This book is wonderful! An enthralling story, once I picked it up I couldn't put it down. You will be engrossed also, but be prepared - you will need a box of tissues, I haven't cried so much over a book since I was about eight and Black Beauty was dying! A fantastic read. Well done again Rosie!!!!
