I begged the author NOT to let the main characters die!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Barbara Taylor Bradford, Three Complete Novels: Hold the Dream / To Be the Best / Act of Will (Hardcover)
This trilogy of a woman's life, struggles, and successes, is the best of this type I've ever read. The reader gets to know, and love her(Emma) and her longtime friend/love(Blackie). More tears than usual were shed over each one's passing. I did not want the trilogy to end
