Hepburn's Necklace - Book Review

 Hepburn's Necklace by Jan Moran

 

Ariana, a costume designer leaves her groom at the altar at the last minute. When she is making her getaway, her Aunty Ruby is by her side. Her aunt is closer to her than her own mother, and Ariana takes solace in Ruby’s care. When Ruby suggests they go on a little trip to Italy, Ariana agrees hesitantly. What happens on the trip will change both these women’s lives.

This story is one you must read; it can not be merely described in a review. The story winds through Ruby’s life from when she was a child, interspersed with the present story of Ariana. Both characters are written with such depth and emotion which is due to the brilliance of the author Jan Moran. The story blends so seamlessly between the two women and their journeys. I could hardly put this book down and was sad to see it end. It truly was that good! When secrets come to light, and the past becomes the present, I was holding my breath. Thank you so much to the author Jan Moran for an advanced copy of the book to review. It was fabulous! All opinions expressed for this review are unbiased and entirely my own.
