Reseñas de la Crítica

“This straightforward tale of a woman taking back her power is a good fit for readers who appreciate a heartfelt story of romantic love and female friendship with a dollop of suspense in the vein of Nora Roberts’ Three Sisters Island trilogy.” —Booklist

“An emotionally riveting read from start to finish.” —Midwest Book Review

Strong characters, but audiobook narrator mis-pronounced quite a few words

The audiobook narrator mis-pronounced quite a few words, which was very distracting. I liked the story and characters. I liked the strong friendships, which is typical of most Eileen Goudge novels.

Riveting and well written

This audio kept me engaged the whole way through. A great story with great narration

loved the characters

well you know how the say people in horror movies do stupid things a little bit of it pertains to the main character,at one point but overall, it was really good.

Thoughtfulness

The primary characters were always welcoming and non-judgmental. The villain was so filled with his own ego, and carried a lot of hurt that he did not understand how to resolve. An excellent portrayal of human emotions and faith.

Good Story. . . But

Good story but there was a lot of repetition, un-needed details, and mushy trivia after what i thought should have been the ending.

Wonderful!

It was a great mix of everything! Love, suspense, friendship. I couldn’t put it down!

Somewhat predictable storyline

I enjoyed her story about her resolve to break free of her husband and the power she had because of the friends that she made. The writing was a little bit more than mediocre riding, but nonetheless and enjoyable listen.

Great story and details

Love the storyline, friendships and inspirations for all. This is quite read that keeps you interested from the beginning.

Humble

I loved this book. It was so humbling and inspiring. I loved the main character and her story. It is such a true image of a woman trying to leave an abusive relationship.

Great romance story!

Loved this story, the side stories, the characters and the setting - small town friends, culture. The narration was also very good. Looking forward to reading more books written by this author!
