This was my first book by Kay Bratt and now I'm keen to read more! I liked how there was a whole different story to what I was expecting. As we read about Emily getting to know her puppy we learn she is a ghostwriter who would dearly love to write something she is passionate about. When she meets Nora and Mari at the dog park with their dogs is where this story really takes off! I'm pleased that she was able to make friends with Mari as they both really needed someone at that point in time. The description of what Emily and Mari find on their road trip seemed so real. I had moments where I had the odd tear in the corner of my eye. People who like heartwarming stories, animal stories, romance and women's fiction will enjoy this story.

This is the third book in the Lost Daughters series and I really enjoyed it. I liked how the grand daughter found her mother's biological mother and was there when they met. It was sad they didn't meet any other family members as in other books, but good that her mother was still alive to meet her biological mother which has not been the case in the other two books.
It wasn't what I was expecting- was hoping for more animal stories but reading about Laurie's life and all her mother and her and her siblings endured before and after getting away from her fathe. Showing you how she came to run the Funny Farm which started off as her mother's dream. There were photos near the end so you could see pictures of the animals she told stories about.
