Some parts seem slow but that’s an unfortunate evil of world building. A little overly complex with some of the explanations, but the plot is interesting and the back and forth between past and present day is well done.

Well created world, and a heroine with an ACTUAL brain! Not the sharpest, but way better than so many heroines who survive on luck and stubborn personalities. Slow start, but it’s worth it. Storyline is intriguing and keeps you guessing.

I love Nicholas Sparks books and was excited to run across this although I generally end up crying. This one was not good. The female main character was abominable, stubborn, and perhaps the densest lead. The fact she was supposed to be a super intelligent attorney was severely impaired by the fact she was repeatedly useless due to simply being pathetic or to “panic attacks.” An she was simply a sitting duck except she found a strong man who has never finished college to be the brain power she lacked and do all the problem solving.

Inaccurate medical and drug information... had good potential but was very repetitive instead of deep.

Aka a very long prologue setting up for something else and not a very admirable heroine. Where's the girl power? Do heroines have to be bad tempered and irrational and seem hormonal?!

I'm all about a new angle for a classic, but this was overly predictable and pretentious and inconsistent. The characters lacked any charm, and the "accents" are ... Not good.

Why can't a heroine retain her brain power when she has emotions? Very sexist. So disappointing after a fantastic first book.

Decent plot, decent character definition, very superficial, and not all the plots were tied up. The detective was misogynistic and annoying. There was potential for so much more. The villains were quite dislikable as well, but it was too obvious for a good mystery.

Love this author, and I understand the delicate damaged character she was trying to create for us, hardening into a stronger woman. However, this heroine has become wholly unlikeable on her path to self discovery. At times I hated her so much I didn't think I could keep listening. can't we have a strong female heroine who can strive for independence without being a total jerk on the way? I can't stop reading or listening. But this book was difficult.

Fantastic characters who share their emotion and growth with you. You are frustrated when they are angry, you are sad when they are remorseful. I wanted to stay in the present at first in the world of competitive ballet in Paris in the 70s, but as the story line develops and the mysteries draw you in, I wanted to stay in the Spanish civil war story. I had been wary of this since there weren't a lot of reviews although this is not a brand new audiobook. However, this gamble payed off. I could hardly stop listening. Even plugging in with my eyes closed for a few more minutes at night before falling asleep. Great ties between family generations portraying the love and both the misunderstanding and understandings across generations.
