        I read this book for a challenge in 2023.  Although it started slowly, it really pulled me in as Tom begins to struggle with their choices/actions. AND Isabelle did not want to give up “her” child.

        It made me sad that they ended up separated in prison, but they did deserve the punishment.

          I’m surprised that I loved this book so

          much! It was beautifully written. I found myself thinking about what I would have done in the same situation as Isabelle. I cannot even imagine keeping a child once I found out who the mother was. Also, I thought Tom should have had more backbone and done the right thing, although I truly understand his love for Isabelle compelled him once he saw her joy in being a mother.
