GOODNIGHT, BEAUTIFUL

everybody has secrets . . . will this one break somebody's heart? Eight years ago, Nova Kumalisi agreed to have a baby for Mal and Stephanie Wacken. Halfway through the pregnancy, the couple changed their minds and walked away, leaving Nova pregnant, scared and alone.

Eight years ago, Stephanie was overjoyed at the thought of becoming a mother - until she found a text from Mal to Nova saying, 'Goodnight, beautiful'. Terrified of losing her husband to his closest friend, Stephanie asked him to cut all ties to Nova and their unborn child.

Now, Nova is anxiously waiting for her son, Leo, to wake up from a coma, while childless Stephanie is desperately trying to save her failing marriage. Although they live separate lives, both women have secrets that will bind them together for ever . .

~ WONDERFUL. AWESOME. BREATH-TAKING.. is that all i can say?? no my dear..no.. it was beautifully written by Dorothy Koomson! i went back to my hometown last weekend to celebrate Mother's Day with my mommy. She had an occasion with orphans on Sunday. I'm bored.. so, i explored her rooms (which i know mmg byk buku.. thanx 2 Didie), i took this book and i just CANT stop. i have to bring it to the office and i'll read it any time i could. be it just 1 sentence, 1 paragraph or even 1 word! i just couldn't stop. i cried, i smiled, i laughed, i have mixed feelings.. i read it while walking, in the train, car, everywhere and i managed to finish it last night..hahaha. it is worth reading!

 

 MARSHMALLOWS FOR BREAKFAST

can a stranger heal your heart?

After Kendra Tamale returns to England from Australia, she rents a room from Kyle, a single father of two, and looks forward to an uncomplicated life.

Kyle's young twins, Summer and Jaxon, have other ideas and quickly adopt Kendra as their new mother - mainly because she lets them eat marshmallows for breakfast. Even though Kendra is hiding a painful secret that makes her keep everyone - particularly children - at arm's length, life improves for her as she becomes a part of their family.

Then Kendra bumps into the man who shares her awful secret and everything falls apart - especially when the kids are taken away by their mother. The only way to fix things is to confess all about her past, but that's something she swore never to do...

~Its a good book actually but still.. I have to find my own leisure time to read and finish this stuff. It was my 1st book i read since I've started my so called working life and it took me soooooo long to finish it! (6weeks, i guess..can u imagine??I'm slower than a snail now..hahahah.). Overall, its good.
