Great Buy!

I purchased a book from this seller and it arrived very quickly and in great condition, would buy from again!

Wonderful Read about Life, Love, Family

This book is more than just a smuck Love story. Gwen deals with many facets of Life a lot of us has had to deal with. Losing her mother at a young age. A father who doesn't help give closure. Different types of friends with different types of lifestyles. Both the men she loves seem Ideal for her and you will just need to read the whole book to see why she makes her decisions. There is a good flow to this book with a tad of mystery, death, healing,bonding. It has some areas of wit and humor. I truly enjoyed this book It was hard for me to put down.

I loved the characters, loved the writing, the insight, the storyline...everything.... one of the best books i have ever read! Thank you Bridget!

I ate this book up!

At a time when I couldn't eat food (having been undergoing radiation therapy to my mouth and throat) I read the advance reader's copy of The Pretend Wife. What I love about this book is that you can read it on so many levels, from the sheer story, the what-if-I-could-do-things-over to the quiet interplay of emotions to the metaphoric and philosophical issues just lying there for you to come back and detect. What's interesting to me after reading it twice is that I come to think the title has more than one meaning. Not only does Ms. Asher get human relationships spot-on, but she also offers incisive readers a clear choice about living an authentic life. Sheila Curran, EVERYONE SHE LOVED
