Happy and sad.........but oh so perfect.
Julie Maisey really did give a heart and soul to each of the characters in this book. The fantastic author knows how to write a good story. I’ve loved each and everyone of her novels. But the narrators can be very hit and miss. This time they got it perfect with Julie. Her voice is young enough to have you believing each character is truly different. The author and narrator are a match made in heaven. Thank you.

Violets children
Maureen Lee's books are all lovely to listen to this one was so unusual, once I started listening it was hard to put down I just wanted to know what was coming next. The narrator was really good as well thank you both for another wonderful book

Nice and Coherent Story
Liked the story and the characters really nice, the accents on the narrator where a bit jarring and nearly made me switch off a few times.

A heart warming story
There are times when a shepherds pie just hits the spot warm and comforting. That’s just how this story affected me. Unusually for me I even shed a tear at the end.
