Forgive and Forget - Patricia Scanlan

This is a book I wanted to read after reading the phrase on the front cover - 'Her number one bestseller' - so I was pretty keen to read, as I do enjoy some easy girlie fiction, I'd also read a review on here which gave it 5 stars, so I thought it must be good!

I was a bit concerned though because this was one of the first books she had written back in 1990 and I sometimes feel that authors are like wines - they get better with age. Therefore was I likely to get the same thrill from one of her earliest publications? I can tell you that I was not in the least disappointed as this book was just as good as her most recent one - which was the one I had previously read. City Girl follows the lives of ...
