A Heartbreaking Family Story- with Secrets!

Promises to Keep
ByAnnTatlock
This novel is an outstanding story of  a young girl greatly troubled by complex family relationshipships.  Ann has  created such a feeling of home and makes you feel with the unforgettable characters. There are so many deep seated emotions  in this heart-tugging , family drama.  You become so involved with the mysteries, love, delusions of love that it is a book impossible to put down!! The plot is full of twists and turn - just when you think you have a notion of a solution to a problem, there is another shift!! This book is certainly a page turner.

The story begins in a small town where a family has just purchased a house, mom , son and her daughters. An elderly lady appears on the doorstep one morning and sits down to read the paper- THEIR paper - and never really leaves - for good- again!!  The family has met with many challenges.  They are here to attempt a new beginning for their family and to forget some very unhappy circumstances, but here, they meet new problems and situations to solve. 
An absent dad becomes secretly involved with one of his daughters, after a prolonged absence- NOT a good thing to keep secrets!   A young girl is completely confused and  unsure of what to do. There are new family problems at every turn- two families become one! with all their problems!!
An excellent, easy read- BUT don't start it at bedtime!! You will never put it down!!
