‘A terrific story! It had me completely gripped from the very first page’ KARIN SLAUGHTER<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enya is strong willed but in someways also weak, putting up with a cold unfeeling husband who tries to isolate her from her son.\u00a0
Her son is difficult to reach, a 15yr old who isn’t interested in his mum’s thoughts or love and embarrassed by affection.\u00a0
Just when Enya is starting to find her feet her past comes back to play havoc on her life.\u00a0 The outcome and conclusion I didn’t see coming. I did feel a bit like Alexander was a bolt on, a husband because Enya’s character needed one. He worked well at the start but seemed to fade away halfway through.\u00a0 Marks character was unlikeable from the start and he really was just a distraction to create the right timeline for the accident.\u00a0\u00a0
Margaret was hard to visualise,\u00a0 the body build still puzzles me, she obviously looked quite an odd character.\u00a0\u00a0And Finn, the link to everything,\u00a0 an awkward 15yr old who is easy to visualise and understand as he struggles to navigate between two high achieving parents.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0
It was nice to read a book that the main character didn’t get a cosy outcome. I so wanted Enya to have the life she’d created but the author had other plans and gave Enya the life she deserved.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
