Este libro me lo recomendaron y tenía muchas dudas en leerlo, primero porque es de época y segundo porque es muy extenso pero mi sorpresa fue que lo disfrute mucho e hice ese viaje con Mary.

Yes, he gave her two beautiful children - Olly and Tabitha - but he is a bully. Worse than that, he hurts her. Este libro está basado en hechos reales. Y creanme que después de leerlo que se llevó un pedazo de mi corazón. No tengo palabras para describir el horror que sentí, el dolor y las lágrimas que derramé con esta historia y es que llegó un momento que por todo lloraba. Por la amistad de Mary con los aquellos hombres. Por la bondad de Boswell y Tench, por las pérdidas que sufrió Mary, Mary separándose de sus amigos. Todo es tan intenso. Mary es un personaje que llegas a admirar y más porque sabes que fue real, no puedo sino sentir admiración por ella y quiero pensar que todos aquellos amigos tuvieron su final feliz. Mary, a Cornish mariner's daughter, makes the biggest mistake of her short life when she steals a silk hat. clearing out my #shelfie, that I realized I already own an old copy of it and was also actually planning to watch its movie. For me, Sally's tale was one of harshness, harrow and sorrow. There's little wonder why Sally continually reinvented herself to chase away those unbearable situations she found herself trapped in time and time again. It also becomes quite clear why she also chose to remain a closed book with her children and second husband. I actually preferred Sally's encounters to Alice's, whose were a bit too brief for my liking.

Perfect Partners / Trust Me / Remember Me by Lesley Pearse

Alice talks to Angus and discovers that her mother is not the woman that she thought she was and that her life was all a lie. Because of this she decides to find out the truth about her mother, visiting places of her mother’s past and her old friends to discover the truth.Raunchier than I’m used to from Lesley Pearse, Deception conveys the eras, particularly of Fleur’s experience, to perfection. Touches of realism such as the musical Hair add a sense of authenticity and the sexist, male dominated world feels so convincing. Mas a verdade é que "Nunca Me Esqueças" é um romance histórico, que cobre um período da vida da inglesa Mary Broad (ou Bryant), uma mulher que ficou famosa pelo facto de, depois de cometer um roubo e ter sido deportada para a Austrália em finais do século XVIII, conseguiu fugir da colónia com os filhos e alguns companheiros, percorrendo cerca de 5.000 km num "pequeno" barco. I found her Alice aggravating and unlikeable, and her mother (though gains some sympathy due to her abusive childhood) is also not a nice character with literally no redeemable features. La verdadera amistad, la más pura, nace del amor. Nunca muere, nunca pierde lustre. Y sobrevive a la muerte".

Lesley Pearse was told as a child that she had too much imagination for her own good. When she grew up she worked her way through a number of jobs, including nanny, bunny girl, dressmaker and full-time mother, before, at the age of forty-nine, settling upon a career that would allow her gifts to blossom: she became a published writer. Lesley lives in Devon and has three daughters and four grandchildren. What I feel is that this book and this story don’t have the protagonism that it should, since it tells something so exceptional. I had never heard of this, not even on History classes.Lesley Pearse is one of Penguin's premium brand authors with total sales of 10 million copies worldwide A gifted storyteller who continues to give fans, old and new, quality entertainment and another addictive, engrossing saga.
