Critics Review
-
It's a total charmer, so sad but sweet and uplifting, staying with me long after I'd read it. I really enjoyed the sentiment that love stays with you after someone has gone, the feeling of reading it and it ending was the same.
Laura Kemp, author of BRING ME SUNSHINE
-
Sweet, funny, heartbreaking and uplifting.
Rachael Lucas, author of FINDING HOPE AT HILLSIDE FARM

I sobbed my way through this read. Heartbreaking yet funny, clever and life-affirming too.

-
