Let me start by saying this is the first book I've read by Ms. Cooper.  Last night I got an email offering a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.  I had just finished another book so I thought, why not?  I read all kinds of romance related books, from women's fiction to erotic fiction that some would consider smut.  Reading is an escape and a way to experience things that I might not want to experience in real life.  Once I started reading this book the only reason I stopped was because my ereader fell out of my hands; I just couldn't keep my eyes open any longer no matter how much I wanted to keep reading.This book moved me in ways that I find hard to explain in this review.  The only thing I can compare it to is another book I read that also moved me in ways I couldn't explain - Night Road by Kristin Hannah.  Ms. Cooper's writing is rich and descriptive; you can see and feel what the characters see and feel.  The prologue was intriguing and made me want to keep reading.  The story unfolds a bit slowly, but that's how it needs to be which I understood the more I kept reading.  I'm not really sure I understood where the book was going for a few chapters but I had to keep going and the more I read the more I couldn't stop.  I won't give any details of the book, you really need to read it for yourself, but I will say there is no cliffhanger which seems to be so popular among some authors these days.If you are a fan of women's fiction you don't want to pass up this book.  This may have been the first book I read by Ms. Cooper but it surely won't be the last.5/29/14 - this book was so good that I purchased a copy for myself even though I received a free one.
