REVIEWS:
A Summer Before
“Glad you had a great launch of Kendwa’s Secret!!! Absolutely loved the book, Donna. Looking forward to the next one!!!f Books.” - Corine Martin, Avid Reader and bibliophile.
“This was a most unexpected story…and what a story it was. The author had a distinctly Australian voice which I loved. The story had so many elements, so many complications. I found myself unable to stop reading. The pacing was terrific and the plot was multifaceted and every storyline was intriguing. Yes, this is a romance but it’s also a story about families and their loving complicated relationships. I loved that it was set on the Gold Coast. I could see every scene clearly, almost had me tempted to return to live on the coast ( nope never going to happen). I enjoyed the back story of the elephant. Noah and Emma were a great couple.”- Kirribilligirl 4-Star Goodreads
