review 1: This novel is another ho-hum romance with a twist and a complication before the two lovers FINALLY get together for good!!! This book is a sequel to The Accidental Mother, but it can be a stand-alone book. Sophie Mills, a corporate manager, becomes the guardian of two little gi...

review 1: I wavered between 2 and 3 stars with this one. It explores a woman's journey and empowerment towards claiming her own life after abandonment and abuse. While I find this an important issue to explore and be informed about I struggled with the somewhat loose and fluffy method ...

review 1: I suppose that my overall impression of this book is = sweet and enjoyable. It certainly got me thinking about Alzheimer's Disease in a slightly different way and the story line did keep me engaged and wanting to know 'what next'. There were moments too which made me laugh, and I...

review 1: Seriously sad. And self-indulgent. I get that sexual abuse affects the victims for the rest of their lives. I don't get that this woman is choosing to let it rule her life & her choices. Which are crappy, FYI--IMO. The first 3/4 of the book are about how Willow tells her husband ...

review 1: This book I thought was a pretty good book. It is a good life lesson for people who want to hold grudges against people. Yes what Alison did to Catherine was very wrong getting pregnant by her best friends boyfriend. Especially because Catherine was pregnant, and she is the one w...

review 1: I wavered over 4 stars, perhaps a 4.5 is fitting. There will always be the fear when writing about a subject matter such as dementia of getting it wrong. I welcome any positive attempt to try and view the world through the eyes of a person living with dementia and those around t...

review 1: I really enjoyed reading The Happy Home for Broken Hearts, and wanted it to go on for much longer than it actually did, but at the same time felt that it ended quite well and gave us the closure we needed as readers. Rowan Coleman was able to merge devastation, loss, grief, roman...

review 1: Wonderful story! The book centers on 39-year old Willow whose adult life has been greatly influenced by a terrible childhood event. She has felt mostly unloved and worse, unloveable. Her job is overly demanding, she years for a man who doesn't really notice her, and in the midst ...
