It is a heartfelt story which will make you laugh, wonder, and cry.

A Masterpiece from Ms Gray

Wow, this was a wonderful book, so full of meaning and feelings, a book you could not put down. I sat up until 1.30 in the morning, after a hard day at the office, so you can imagine how it gripped me. The main characters were wonderful. Maggie was a feisty brave heroine. Her outgoing, sexy, flirty manner hiding a deep vulnerability and a longing to be loved. Dan was a wonderful hero, good and solid, sexy and handsome. His love for Maggie was evident quite early in the book, but Maggie could never quite believe it, having never known her father's love.Her sister's characters were intersesting. Laurel, who must have known deep down that Maggie had never come on to her fiance, hiding from the truth, and suffering the beatings he inflicted upon her. An Jo Beth, so openly hostile to her, but as the book later reveals, also proud of her.Her mother, basically weak, but loving Maggie dearly and doing her best to heal the rifts between Maggie and her father. Her Aunt Nan, a strong, determined woman, quite willing to stand up to her brother on Maggie's behalf.The wretched, evil Martin - How I longed for him to get his come-uppance. And Maggie's father. What to say? I hated him for what he did to Maggie and yet he was a good man, a good employer, a loving husband, a wonderful father to his two other daughters. His character was neither black nor white. But even after the big secret was revealed, this reader could not quite forgive him for the way he had treated Maggie.I adored this book, thought it fabulous and give it five stars.

FANTASTIC................

This was such a warm,wonderful story.I enjoyed the characters and the love between the Mother and Daughter.I loved the way Maggie stood up to her ill father and never let him see how much he continued to hurt her.A must read book..........

She's done it again!

I've always been a big fan of Ginna Gray and she didn't disappoint with The Prodigal Daughter. I found it hard to put down and quite enjoyable. Ms. Gray captured Maggie's spirit and passed it right along to her readers. Another great one by Ginna Gray that I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. Don't miss this one!

Terrific read!

This is Ginna Gray at her best. From the first page of the heroine's return in her green Viper and the right-on description of a small East Texas town, I was hooked. You can't go wrong with this one.
