My first Diane Chamberlain novel. I found this an easy going enjoyable read.

Silly! Not much to say when you find yourself thinking this about main character "how does a child who is raised with so much love turn out to be such a bitch."
It was a good story...Diane is a very powerful and evocative author. But I didn't enjoy it as much as I enjoyed her other books. Most of the time I found Molly to be entirely unsympathetic and kind of a brat. I get that what happened in her past hurt her, and it was painful to remember, but the depth of her anger seemed contrived and what actually happened didn't seem to match up with the way the author was building up to it...just a bit of a letdown.
