I don’t know how Sara Ohlin does it, she just manages to create these amazing stories and you can’t help but get sucked into the stories that she writes. I loved getting to read about Katie’s story because back in the first book you saw one side to her and it seemed that Katie had everything all together, but in reality, when it came to this book, it’s clear there’s a lot more beyond the surface.
I loved how Sara created Katie, as it’s clear she has a lot on her plate, but with the fact she’s raising three young daughters on her own as she’s been a widow for so long, it’s interesting to see that even though this is a story, this can happen in real life and some people do tend to struggle. All I wanted for Katie was for life to be a little easier on her, she deserves to have some happiness and time for herself but having to raise her three daughters and dealing with the struggles when it comes to her oldest. I think that Sara handled everything in such a delicate but hands on way, I loved everything about it and couldn’t fault the story.
I also thought that Rosie (Katie’s oldest daughter) was interesting as it’s clear there’s a lot happening in her head and that she’s too afraid to even open up to anyone about what’s going on. I would love to see if Sara actually plans on writing a book from her point of view at some point because you do see her grow in this book, but at the same time it would be great to see how things develop for her.
I’m excited to see what happens with the rest of this series as I’m hooked so far and I’m loving all the characters.
Katie’s sole focus has been looking after her three daughters and trying to make a career for herself so that she can support her and her three girls ever since her husband died. However, it’s clear that whilst she loves her job, she’s craving the intimacy, but feels guilty for even thinking about anything. When one of her clients goes ahead and gives her an assignment on needing to explore more, whether that be sign up to online dating, going on a date, even experimenting with toys, she knows that she’s way out of her depth.
After bumping into this stranger when entering the pub in their small town, she can’t help but feel alive just from his lingering stare alone.
Will Katie be able to find the balance and actually start putting herself first for a change?
What will Katie make of the mysterious stranger from the pub, will she ever see him again??
What is going on with Rosie??? Will Katie get to the bottom of it?
