I hope so, because I feel compelled... Janine, thanks so much for this review. It's one of the best I've seen for honing in on the heart of the book, really describing who the characters are at their core, without giving away any of the major plot twists. I'm so glad you enjoyed Last Will, and that the book found you. More broadly, I'd like to say that there are many books out there that qualify as works of romantic women's fiction. In fact, I recently formed a chapter within RWA for those who write in this romance-friendly genre (RWA-WF). I hope more books like Last Will find a strong support base with romance readers who like stepping just a little outside of the norm now and then. Thanks, too, for lurking at Writer Unboxed, and for your kind words about our blog. All best, Therese Is it all right for the author to comment about her review? I hope so, because I feel compelled…

I didn't cry as much as I did with <em>Jellicoe Road</em>, but I still cried a lot. And yes, it became compelling in the latter two-thirds. I hope you enjoy it.
