I can’t wait to read this. I have been a big fan ever since reading My Best Friend’s Girl.

@Karen Scott: I hope you like it, Karen. It's different to her other books but still with her signature style. @heidenkind: Dorothy Koomson's books are intense but ultimately uplifting. In other words, she takes her readers on an emotional journey but doesn't leave you depressed at the end of it. @Janet W: Yes, I think she might like them. If you think she'd prefer one with a bit more emphasis on romance, I can highly recommend The Chocolate Run. My Best Friend's Girl is also very good.

Would my 20-year old dd like (if “like” is the right word) it? She loves books set around the time of the Tudors (and they are bloody indeed), chick lit and dense, Victorian tomes (Eliot and such). Please advise: I’m always looking for new books for her.

Sounds very intense. I’ve definitely never heard of the author before, but I don’t read chick lit or even general fiction as a rule.
