Engaging!

Hannah, Leonie and Emma stole my heart from the first pages of this wonderful book. I was immediately drawn into their lives, felt their pain, laughed alongside each of them and cheered them on to the finish.A chance meeting on an Eygptian vacation leads these three women into the world of true friendship. An unlikely threesome from the beginning, each woman discovers a deep and compassionate sisterhood that gives each of them the strength to deal with their own lives on a deeper level. This is my first Cathy Kelly book. I was very impressed by the depth of the character development and the insight that Ms. Kelly exhibits in her writing. I will be checking my book store for more of this author. Bravo!

I loved this book...

This is the first book by Cathy Kelly I have ever read & I have to say I absolutely loved it... I did not want it to end. After finishing this one I would love to read all of Cathy Kelly's books.

Kelly does it well!

I was bought this as a present and as I hadn't read a Cathy Kelly book before I was dubious before reading it.... BUT I found it was great. It was an contemporary novel but still contained the old ingredients of a romance. The characters, Hannah,Leonie and Emma were all so different and so real to me that I felt the same as they did. I identified with all the characters, my favourite been Hannah.Once I had begun this book, I simply couldn't put it down and I felt sad for it end. I would definately recommend this book to anyone, and I would recommend Cathy Kelly, the narrative technique is brilliant and would read another of her novels.All in all a fantastic feel good read.

One of those books you don't want to end!

If you are a fan of Rosamund Pilcher and Maeve Binchy, you will be delighted to welcome Cathy Kelly to your library. Pour the glass of wine or cup of tea and enjoy your trip to Ireland. The characters and settings were wonderfully detailed and by the end of the book, you felt that pang that comes when a good book ends! I did become frustrated when the characters seemed to make bad choices over and over again - but then I also know many women who are exactly like that. I am delighted to add Cathy Kelly to my reading list and wish that we could get access to her previous novels that were released in the UK.
