Beth Melbourne and Zack Winslow have been friends since childhood. Everyone knew that it was only a matter of time before the two would marry. Finally engaged, and with the wedding day just around the corner, Beth calls off the wedding and vanishes, leaving everyone in shock. Beth's abrupt departure forces Zack to question what went wrong, causing him to turn to Beth's best friend, Rachel Carrington, for comfort. Sixteen years later Beth returns, but can she pick up the pieces of her shattered life after so much time has passed? Will she be forced to share the secrets she has hidden for so long in order to secure her happiness? Author Mary Lynn Baxter packs a wallop of emotion in this powerful, character-driven story of love lost and found. Keep the hankies handy for this poignant page-turner that proves true love can withstand the test of time.

Enough!,

This review is from: Day In April (Paperback)
This is a tragic story. I don't mind tragic stories, but this one NEVER stops. It contains one tragedy after another and I found myself at first exhausted, then confused, and finally amused. It's like the author decided to throw EVERY possible tragedy at these characters to see how much she could test them (and her readers)!
This one has it all.....rape, misunderstandings, addiction, death, lies, betrayals. Yep, there all here in spades! The HEA finally arrives, but by the end of this book I was so excited to end the torture that it was all I could do to not stand up and cheer from relief when it was over! The main characters are likeable (which probably is why all their suffering is hard to take). The villainous father is truly vile and evil and there are a host of characters that played secondary roles that were unnecessary and took away from the story. Overall, not really recommended unless you're in the mood to read about one couple's MANY obstacles.

A great book! However, I found it amazing to read the first reviewer who gave it such a low score - did we read the same book? I normally prefer to read murder/suspense novels but thought I would give this one a go - take my word for it, if you want to have an enjoyable read, don't go past this one.

Unbelievably GREAT book!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Day In April (Paperback)
WOW!! Where do I start? This was an incredible book. A book you just cannot put down!! This is one of those books you remember for a long time. I can't even begin to describe the story because it is so full of things going on in the lives of two families as they grow from babies to adults. The kids fall in love really young, plan a wedding and life together, when the unthinkable happens to Beth which sends her off to another town to live, and in steps her best friend to take over her place..when she finds out she can't have a child, she asks Beth to be a surrogate for her and Beth's old sweetheart. Then the best friend dies, leaving the baby alone with the old boyfriend but he doesn't know that the love of his life is the real mom of his baby. Whew!! Are you confused yet?! What an incredible book. You've got to get your hands on this one coz it's one of the best page turners ever. You'll find this one really hard to put down. A 10+
