THis was a very well written book about sisters who come to terms with things that happened in their childhood that were "never discussed" even amongst themselves. It is also about love of family and finding love. It was a good read and I enjoyed it.

A story of three sisters, with different temperments and interests, looking for love and through the growth of each character from within, finding love.
This book is for anyone who had a sister or who wished they had a sister. A wonderful women's fiction!

A woman's book about friends who are sisters and sisters who are friends. Thogh bound by blood, they are separated by tragedy. Their collective journeys are about personal and familial redemption. A good read.

I loved this book!!! It is not really a romance but it does have elements of romance in it. It is a warm intimate book about sisters and love and rediscovering who we really are. I laughed and cried. I felt joy and sorrow. This is a book full of tenderness and hardship.
Great read!!!!

I really enjoyed this book, it captivated me from the beginning to the end. I wouldn't call it a great literary piece, but the story is good, characters are engaging, and there is enough tragedy to make it a good read. I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the relationship of the four sisters. I have two sisters, so I can relate to a lot of the feelings between the women. A good read overall and I recommend it.

I liked this book. I liked the characters and the story line and I found the situations that the characters were in to be totally believable. For me it was well written and because of that it was a fast read. I'm sure i will look for other books written by her to read.

This the best Mary Alice Monroe book I've read! And that is saying alot, since I love all of her books. This one struck perhaps a more personal chord with me since it was about adoption, and eventually finding the birth child and reconcilation with sisters and one's self. A great read with good characters.

Heartwarming family relationship story (my favorite) about four sisters and the way they face the traumas in their lives. This story shows them from their childhood until adulthood, being together, being apart. They are all together for a family tragedy which had started when they were children, each one carrying their own guilt about what happened. I love the way this author writes, stripping layers off each character, each one so different.

Another great read by this author I have yet to read a book of hers that I did not like. You feel like you are part of the story. Pick up any of her books and you will not be disappointed
