400 pages of pure emotion, heartache but also a gorgeous family saga. After their father leaves and their mother is murdered, Nessie is left to hold the family together with Reuben, Marcie and little brother Joseph are left to fend for themselves. Left with no money, they have to find food, work and keep a roof over their head. A page turning saga that has twists and tales on every chapter. From the lecherous landlord who is eager for them to fail the rent, to the youngest sister having ideas out of her 'class' and bringing family into gossip, then to good fortune of new job and hopeful future followed by secrets and lies that hurt the family. With each page you hope that things change and work out the way you want them too..
Without telling the tale, this book had me laughing and then crying and even 'Oh No' at some points.
Although this is the fourth book in the saga it is not needed to read the others although that is something I will now be doing.
Rosie is an amazing author, absolutely loved this book. Definitely recommend.
