Heartwarming - Rated 
I have just read this book and I have to say i really really enjoyed it! It is about kedra who sort of adopts two children in a sense - and they call her mummy 2! Its lovely the way kendra has to deal with ghosts from her past, and how her and the twins dad get close - a most enjoyable read would recommend it!

Kendra Tamale returns to Britain from Australia following a failed affair. She goes back to work for an old friend. Life should become much simpler for her now, but it wouldn't make much of a story if that were the case.
Of course there are many complications, and her awful history catches up with her. There are quite a few imaginative twists and turns along the way, which keep the reader interested. There are also plenty of amusing parts to stumble across.
For me there was only one upsetting aspect of this fiction. The evil wrongdoer shares my name, Lance. That aside, I would recommend this marvellous tale to any of my friends and family.
Not great, not bad.. just O.K - Rated 
Hmm, i brought this book as i really enjoyed my best friends girl..I was quite excited about reading this book..BUT by the time i reached chapter 7, i was looking forward to finishing it. It was a bit of a drag in places..This book had no 'wow' factor for me, it didnt excite me, it didnt make me want want to carry on reading, i even skipped bits now and again as i was so desperate for it to end. I HAVE to read all books i start.
So yes, it is ok, but i wouldnt really recommend it highly..but then again,i wouldnt tell people not to buy it.
I guess it just wasnt for me :)

Enjoyed this book but not as much as My Best Friend's Girl, It took a little time to get into the book, but when I did I felt involved, and wanted to know if Kendra was happy in the end. It left me not knowing.
well done Dorothy Koomson I have enjoyed your books so far
I'd love Kendra as a friend! - Rated
I really enjoyed this book. There were moments when you wanted to shake Kendra to wake her up to her behaviour - like when she didn't tell Gabrielle what her colleague said - I didn't see the need for her to withhold such information... too big a deal. BUT, she was fairly consistent throughout - we knew she had serious beliefs about things - and she didn't change. There was a tough episode in the middle of the book, which meant I couldn't go to sleep for ages, but I got through it! I was far too involved! It ended very well, which I must claim to not being able to say too often - I'm left with the hope that having developed the characters so well, Dorothy Koomson might write something else about them. Summer and Jaxon were just delightful children - and, I must admit, reading how their mum used to shout at them might just have helped me to reduce my shouting to my little beauties!
I've added Koomson's next two books to my wishlist - can't wait for them to be published!
