Many thanks to NetGalley, Lake Union Publishing, and Amanda Prowse for the opportunity to read and review her latest novel - another winner! Amanda Prowse is so good at developing such engaging characters that really pull at your heartstrings. 4.5 stars!
Thomasina, nicknamed Hitch, was born with some issues - cleft pallet that was badly repaired, along with a club foot and other disabilities. She was raised on her family farm and lovingly cared for by her parents, but she always was told and known that she wouldn't be able to learn and achieve what the other kids did. Add much bullying on top of that and Thomasina was happy to stay on the farm and tend to her chickens. Until one day a guest at their B&B, Grayson Potts, came into her life. He had his own share of issues - probably Asperger's, and a troubled family life. But Grayson was the first one to really see Thomasina's beauty and allowed her to finally see it in herself, But could it last?
Just a good book to get lost in. It also should serve as a warning to not install those self-fulfilling prophecies into our children or others.
