Customer Reviews

Wonderful

Stella Landry is one of the most orginal and moving characters I've met in many years of reading. Her story, of a lonely young woman trying to make a new life for herself after a sordid past, is told in an absorbing, first person style that makes the reader feel each event with intense emotion. Ms McCorquodale is a truly gifted writer.

A gut wrenching page turner

This is one of the best books I've ever read. The author takes you right into the heart and soul of Stella Landry. She truely makes the reader feel the full range of emotions. It was hard to put the book down, and I found myself crying for Stella, and unable to sleep. I would highly reccomend this book to all women, with or without a past.
