tears of joy, laughter and sadness.
Review:
This was a very different kind of read for me. A story dealing with heavy topics that the author did pretty well in keeping in a light tone. Although I enjoyed it and rooted and cheered for Kitty and those supporting her, it bugged me that she seemed to jump from an unhealthy and toxic marriage right into a healthy and loving relationship. I believe that when someone becomes single; whether it was a normal relationship or toxic, that the person needs to learn to be single, independent and just by themselves for a while. I did enjoy this read and the character development was good with a smooth and fast-paced storyline. I was surprised but not surprised, more disappointed when Kitty decided to give her husband another chance when he already showed his true colors to her. Although she did end up choosing a wiser option, to be fair. Although the small time gap between her relationship bugged me, I understand why she made that decision. All in all, a very good read and I look forward to reading the next in this series.
Author Bio – I live in a village in the North Yorkshire Moors with my husband, two daughters and two black Labradors. When I’m not writing, I can usually be found with my nose in a book/glued to my Kindle, or in my garden. I also enjoy bracing walks in the countryside, rounded off with a visit to a teashop where I can indulge in another two of my favourite things: tea and cake.
