And it was a great decision.
I really like the characters and the depth that they have to them. The Author really knows how to highlight the struggle of the woman who lived in this time.
It was heartfelt and emotional.
I hope Caroline gets to live her dream. I think she and Gaynor will have a great friendship - maybe even more.
The only thing I would say was not as good as the book was the marketing. I think the description leads a lot of people into reading the book with false expectations. It's not even clear that the path of not two, but three woman interwind. I think people would not be disappointed by the book if it was made clear that it would talk about the life of these three - in different times.

The authors portrayal of the grief & pain that comes from betrayal, or wanting a baby was so real it had me wondering if she’d experienced it first hand. This story had me feeling like I was right there with them listening to their tales of heartbreak, & the exciting thrill of discovery. I felt deeply for these women, almost as if I had known them myself. Now that we’ve come to an end, I don’t quite know what to do with myself.
