Susi Osborne has a real talent for developing relationships authentically: I really couldn't understand how Angel and Lola would even exchange more than a couple of words, given the difference in their ages, educational background and histories - and it was all exacerbated by Angel's knowledge that she would be best avoiding a relationship she'd only mess up. But Osborne's clever: it wasn't too long before I was rooting for the friendship and for the two girls individually. I also fell in love with Angel's son Rafferty - and Rafferty fell for Lola.
The plot is neat and well executed with a great twist which you might not be expecting - but all the clues are there. Add to this some great characters who whom you worry about long after you've finished reading and you have a great story. I devoured it long into the night, determined not to put it down until I knew what had happened. I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
If this book appeals then you might also enjoy [[Together by Julie Cohen]].
