Lucinda Riley had an incredible talent for writing family sagas that truly captivate. She wrote about a person's mistakes, whilst making the reader understand their reasoning and personality and describes time and place beautifully. Most important of all, her stories are completely believable and enjoyable.

A good summer read for someone, I guess. It just wasn't for me. I can't even pinpoint exactly what it was about this book but it just didn't do it for me. Maybe I'm being nit-picky, but the constant referring to Immy and Fred as "the little ones" just really, really irked me.

Jeg skulle et pænt stykke ind i bogen, før jeg for alvor blev grebet af den, men da jeg var kommet langt nok ind, opdagede jeg, hvor smuk historien er, og hvor mange følelser og hemmeligheder den indeholder.
Den kan sagtens anbefales, hvis man har brug for at blive rørt lidt, og hvis man har brug for lidt sommerferiestemning.

This was a good story with an array of characters. I'm glad Helena and William stayed together in the end! Liked how Alex was able to talk William into sticking with Helena!

By far my least favourite Lucinda Riley book so far. I couldn’t get into the perspective of the teenage boy at all.

Zoet, de humor van Alex als jochie is heerlijk maar het blijft tegen bouquetreeks aanhangen. Leest wel lekker weg.

Das Buch zieht sich leider mega. Es wird auch super viel Drama gemacht, für eine Story die ich persönlich jetzt nicht sooo dramatisch finde.
