Coming Home to Glendale Hall by Victoria Walters
5.0
Wow! This book was amazing - kept me hooked from beginning to end. Once I started I just wanted to keep reading. Kept me up late.
The story line kind of reminded me of Gilmore Girls.
We follow Beth Williams the now 26 year old through her return to Glendale Hall. At 16 years of age Beth became pregnant and left home. For 10 years she has done everything for her daughter Isabelle and kept away from Glendale Hall as she was sure her family didn't respect the choices she had made.
However Beth returns home when her Gran is sick and is told she may not make it through the Christmas. When Beth returns home she finds out things weren't really as she thought and that her Gran had kept secrets. Can Beth forgive her Gran before she passes?
However Glendale isn't the same as Beth once remembered, its now run down and possibly will be lost to a developer. Beth is reunited with her best friend Heather and together with her mum will the three of them be able to save Glendale?
Isabelle the sweetest kid ever has always wonder about her father and always wanted to meet him. On their return to Glendale Beth runs into Drew - Isabelle's father. Will she tell Iz that he is in town or will she keep the secret to herself? The other question is does Drew even want to be in Isabelle's life? Beth tried to contact him once and he never responded but she has some serious decisions to make! Will she make the right ones?
Well you'll just have to read on to find out yourself. Thankyou Netgalley, Hera Books and Victoria Walters for allowing me to read this book.
Fantastic writing skills, made me feel I was right there in the book and along for the journey!
