Liz and Laurie are mother and daughter, but they couldn't be more different.

As they explore Europe together, Laurie finally starts opening up to her mother. Will unburdening themselves of the secrets that have kept them apart bring them closer together?


Review:

So first off thank you to the publisher and Love Books Tours for having me on this book tour and I'm so sorry it's late! 
If I'm honest it's late because I did struggle with reading this book. It's very well written, so well written that the characters are very relatable and unfortunately remind me of people I have cut out of my life which made reading it a difficult task. But I did push on with reading it which is why my review is a little late, I didn't want to review half the book.
I disliked the mother (Liz) a hell of a lot, and couldn't see why Laurie bothered with her considering all she did was put her down and criticise her. I was suspicious of Richard from early on, following her from one country to another gave me stalker vibes! And he just seemed off, something wasn't right.
It's got a stunning cover though, how beautiful will that look on your shelf!
Whilst the book wasn't for me, it's defiantly a well-written piece of fiction and I think a lot of people will enjoy it immensely.
