This book was great. The prose is beautiful and the characters are real and have you rooting for some, angry at others, and ache for others. The story is full of hope and heartache and forgiveness and love.
This book I borrowed from a co-worker.
For the most part I liked it. I told awhile to get into, some of the narrative was wordy to me. But I liked the message that love comes in all forms and all ways.
What a delightful read! I was captivated by the author's style of writing. Marisa de los Santos tells the story about Cornelia, a young woman, perhaps unlucky in love, who becomes enmeshed in the life of a young girl, Clara, in need of some motherly love and attention. Clara is the daughter of Martin, the man who has (we think) won Cornelia's heart. And then Theo enters, the husband of Cornelia's sister, an old time friend, the one who gave Cornelia her first kiss. The author switches points of view from Cornelia to Clara evenly, and keeps us intrigued and guessing right to the end as to how it'll all turn out. Highly recommended.
