Once In A Blue Moon Book Review

Thanks to the One2One Network I was able to review a copy of Eileen Goudge's new book and New York Times bestseller Once In A Blue Moon.  Eileen is also the author of Woman In Red, Domestic Affairs, The Diary, One Last Dance, Garden of Lies and Thorns of Truth.

Info I received from One2One Network:

Sisters Lindsay and Kerrie Ann have known hardship from an early age. Without guidance from their neglectful mother, their only aid came from an unlikely source, a retired exotic dancer by the name of Miss Honi Love. When the girls’ mother was sent to prison, Miss Honi tried unsuccessfully to save them from being separated and sent into foster care.

Thirty years later, Lindsay is still trying to reconnect with her sister. The owner of a bookstore in the sleepy California seaside town of Blue Moon Bay, she was lucky enough to have been adopted by a loving couple. Unbeknownst to her, Kerrie Ann has suffered a very different life. Bounced from one foster home to the next, she ran away as a teenager before becoming a drug-addicted single mother. Now, newly sober, Kerrie Ann is fighting to regain custody of the little girl who was taken from her.

Neither sister’s expectations are met when they’re finally reunited. But as the two sisters engage in the fiercest battles of their lives, they are at last drawn together despite their differences, restoring belief in the unshakable bond of family.

Once In A Blue Moon was totally my kind of book. I started reading it and finished it within 2 days. The story really draws you in.  These two sister's live were so chaotic as children and 30 years later when they're reunited you can really see how different their lives have been.  They face their struggles and hardships and engage in a fight to get custody of Kerri-Ann's daughter.

Much thanks to the One2One Network for introducing me to a new author.  I'm excited to check out the rest of Eileen Goudge's books.
