Reader Reviews
2.5 starsThis was a book I became aware of while browsing Kindle’s lending library – upon reading the summary, the story sounded interesting so I decided to check it out. Overall, the story itself was not bad – in fact, there was actually a lot of potential for this to have turned into something great.

Heavy-handed, with serious character and pacing issues. Even though I liked these women are redeemed through friendship and not romance, I found the book really clunky. The story moves from issue to issue (too many issues! too many hardships!) without any fluidity between them. I felt no emotional resonance with the characters because the plot was presented in an almost journalistic style, gussied up with flowery language. It's a shame, because the story was promising.
Life has a way of always moving forward.A sweet tale about friendship, family and love. Life is a journey, the journey of Bridgette and Alex is something everyone can relate to.
