This book
was an absolute joy to read. Susan Mallery is a fabulous author. I loved how
the characters of Ellen and Unity grew and matured as they went through their
lists. There were some tears, a few giggles and the book just leaves you with
that feel good feeling at the end. It has all the ingredients for the perfect
summer read.
Thank you so
much to the author Susan Mallery, Harlequin and NetGalley for an advanced copy
of the book to review. It was fabulous! All opinions expressed for this review
