Another good story in the life of Monica Brunetti. Can you read it as a stand alone? Yes. BUT, you will miss out on a lot of background on the characters in this story if you don't read them in order.

Monica is living in the beautiful seaside village of Lady Helen in South Africa, with her two adopted boys. She has a job she loves and a man she is falling in love with. But all that could change when the man she is interested in has a daughter that doesn't approve of the romance. Then there is Francina, who has a husband she adores and a business that is becoming very profitable. But her life also will be shaken up a lot in this story (won't spoil it for you). Both ladies will come to understand that "risks of love are worth taking". I enjoyed my stay in Lady Helen and my time with Monica and Francina.… (lisätietoja)

Journalist Monica Brunetti will find herself moving to the town of Lady Helen with her two adopted boys and housekeeper, Francina. Monica will take over the local newspaper and Francina will learn to love again and take on a new adventure. Monica will work hard to save the small community of 'Sandpiper Drift' from being torn down for an expensive golf course. The author does a very good job of giving you a feel for South Africa; its many varied cultures, its beauty and its sorrows. I strongly encourage readers to read book one first, so you get an understanding of how all these characters came together as a strong family unit.… (lisätietoja)

This is the fourth and final book in this series and I liked the way the author brought this all to a conclusion. These stories took me to a country I was not that familiar with and helped me to see and understand just a little bit about life in picturesque South Africa.

Monica Brunetti now has a loving husband, two wonderful adopted sons, and a nice stepdaughter. But she is a little obsessed with the one thing she doesn't have and that is a child of her very own. You have her dealing with this issue, along with sending her oldest adopted boy to America for 9 months, and her youngest wanting to become a movie star. Monica's friend, Francina, is also facing some issues in her life and these two ladies are what this story is all about.

You really should read the books in order to get the full background on these ladies and how they come to be friends and how Monica came to have the family she has. I am glad I took the time to get to know life in South Africa and two ladies who have come a long way and endured much. Their faith and their family help them to find the courage to carry on despite many obstacles along their path.
