I think I already know what will happen based on the summary in the OBC review. It's a heartwarming romantic story about second chances and redemption. Sounds like it has a very intense plot based on the genre. Congratulations on the BOTD.

I have also been skeptical about mystery novels. Would surely give this book a try because of the appreciation that it has received. Hope the romance and suspense lives up to the hype.

Even after reading a very detailed review of this book, I want to know what happened next in the story. I really hope that Tully and Chloe have a happy ending.

I'm intrigued by how Chloe could prove the innocence of the father she didn't even know existed and had obviously never met before. Congratulations to the author for BOTD!

It's great that it's a quick read but I'm not sure if I'm interested. There are mixed reviews so I'm not sure I'll enjoy the book. I don't like stories that are predictable, I prefer mystery and adventure.

That it is difficult to categorised this book in a particular genre suggests that the author wrote freely, unfettered by literary conventions even.

Seems like a great read about the life of a man who got out of prison only to find that his life had changed completely. Can't wait to read it and find out more about Tully. Congratulations on botd. Great review.

Among other important things, this book captures a sad reality of our times — the struggles of the family of a wrongfully convicted person.
