From the bestselling author of The Girl in the Corner comes a story that asks: how do you forgive the family that lied to you, and love the mum you never had? When her loving, free-spirited grandmother Primrose passes away, Victoria is bereft, yet resilient--she has survived tragedy before. But even her strength is tested when a mysterious woman attends Prim's funeral and claims to be the mother Victoria thought was dead. As the two women get to know each other and Victoria begins to learn more about her past, it becomes clear that her beloved grandmother had been keeping life-changing secrets from her. Desperate for answers, she still struggles to trust anyone to tell her the truth. To live a full and happy life, Victoria knows she must not only uncover the truth, but find a way to forgive her family. But after so many years, is trusting them even possible?

I‘m not sure how I feel about this book, as I did and didn‘t enjoy it. There are a few funny moments tinged with a lot of sadness and anger. I can understand the main character being angry at the death of her grandmother. Who brought her up. Along with the anger of finding out that throughout her 18 years of life, what she was told and lead to believe about her family was a lie.
My rating: 3 ⭐️⭐️⭐️

TheHeartlandBookFairy And imagine, just before your 19th birthday, you come home to find the one person you love the most in your life has died. How do you recover from this, how do you go on? And then imagine, that you find out that everything was a lie. How do you recover from that, how do you go on? An amazing story of survival, of will, of understanding, of forgiveness, and of love. A beautiful story!
