Critics Review

“This book draws all the emotions out of you. I went from tears to snorting with laughter. It was both lighthearted and heart breaking, yet it inspires me to live my best life! ” Michelle Cox

“This book was so much more than I had expected, and I had high expectations… one of the most beautiful stories I’ve read in years.” Kaela Stokes

“It touched something in my soul.” Audrey McDonald

“Molnar seamlessly relays the stories of two women, from vastly different centuries, who rise from the ashes of their loss to succeed. I found it well-researched, enlightening, and inspiring-with elements of romance that enhance, rather than define her admirable female characters.” Kristin Ann Marang

“This story captivated me immediately! It is so beautifully written, and the author does such an incredible job of weaving the past & present day stories- I easily fell into the back & forth rhythm, and found myself anxiously turning pages. It’s a mystery, a romance, a tragedy, and a ‘suffrage’ story all in one, and I enjoyed every minute. Can’t wait to read more from this author!” Holley Cameron

“Loved this story of Joanna, a woman born in a time when women had no voice or power, yet she was able to overcome these obstacles and realize her dream. A powerful story of female resistance and strength, a story about the WOMAN who made Van Gogh famous!” Amazon Review

“One of the most poignant and heartbreaking books I have read in recent times. A must read!” Amazon Review
