This is the last of the series which began with Belle. Having started with Belle, then The Promise and finally Survivor .... we finish the saga of a small but very close knit family! I loved the story from page 1 and was sad to end ....... felt like saying goodbye to my own. Truly a lovely series .......!!

Sad to say goodbye .......
