Olivia Felicone has just been made a widow after her husband Luca died in a car accident.Luca was the love of Olivia’s life, and she’s not sure how she can go on without him. She isn’t close to the Felicone family, but begins an affair with Luca’s twin brother Marc behind everyone’s backs, as it makes them both feel closer to Luca.But is it really the best thing for both of them?When I read the plot of the book, I thought it sounded very interesting, and I was intrigued to see how the author was...
I enjoyed this book and couldn't help quite liking Olivia despite the poor choices she made. I was surprised, considering the title, that there was not more focus on the relationship between Olivia and Luca. I thought the characters were well developed and believable and the flowing style of prose made this an easy read.
Awesome story!!!I loved this book from start to finish. Yet another book by Louise Douglas that I had a hard time putting down at the end of the day. I found myself moving from one room to another with book in hand, intent on spending as much of the day as possible reading this incredibly moving story full of raw emotion, grief but mostly love. This one's going to stay with me for a long time.Personally, I think I would have replace the gravestone.
Thought I'd give this a go after unexpectedly enjoying The Secrets Between Us by the same author. Unfortunately, it seemed to be about as good as I'd have expected with a title like that. Very awkward and stilted writing style and the plot (from what I could make out) was almost unbearably mawkish. Not my cup of tea.
I read this is one day. Well, technically two since I stayed up until 1 in the morning to finish. It is extremely well written with interesting and believable characters. It is not overly sentimental or soppy. So many books about losing a spouse just get bogged down with emotion. This is a woman who has made mistakes, quite a few actually, but manages to learn to live with herself. I absolutely loved it but I don't have the ability in my writing to convey just what a gem it is.
When I finished this book I started crying, and I don't cry that easily. But when I started imagining the number of trees that has been cut just to print this terrible book, I couldn't hold the tears. I read this awful book based on the recommendation of someone I admired.Which I regret doing terribly, because according to her the book represents deep and beautiful feelings. which I find that statement laughable. To me those feelings were sickening, and I'll tell you exactly why.So, she is a gri...
Review originally published here http://twincreatives.com/2015/11/07/b...I picked this book up in the Great Oak Bookshop in Llanidloes whilst I was holidaying in Wales. It sells a large selection of both new and second hand books, and The Love of My Life is one of six books I picked up that day.I was drawn to the book at first by the cover, and the deal was clinched by the blurb. I am a huge fan of women’s fiction, and the beautiful pink and purple sunset and blatantly in-love couple that adorne...
The Love of My Life - Louise Douglas Beauty, Books and Babble★★★★✩I would like start by saying thank you to Bookouture for sending me a copy of this via NetGalley. It's a wonderful story and I gave it 4 heartstring-tugging stars. "He should have been my happy ending. Instead, he is the sad beginning to my story." When Liv was a teenager, she never fit in with her family, nor did she fit in with the Felicone family. After falling in love with Luca Felicone, Liv took the giant step of elopin
