I figured I should read this book about Pippa's life so I wouldn't find any holes in the stories in future books. Pippa's life growing up as a little girl & then into adulthood is pretty boring. She was a little on the edge for her time though since she was a wild girl! I was very interested however when she had Ingrid and then later met Declan & became his nanny. We finally get an explanation for what happened to Dex in his childhood! My favorite part was when Pippa pulls Perry over into the veiled side when Perry is just 6 years old. Perry even then is so sweet & loving & special! I wonder though if pulling her through to the other side, even for a brief moment, changed Perry in some way. Now at least we have a good background on Perry's grandmother and how she tried to connect Perry & Dex so they could look out for each other. Pippa's guide from the veiled side explained how Pippa had not met the right man for her even though she was madly consumed by Ludwig. The guide said that it would be like a magnet drawing two people together, like you were missing your other half. That is exactly what Perry & Dex have and I'm running out of patience - I want to see these two together!!
