|---|
"Katie is shattered when her lover Matt, suddenly breaks up with her and leaves. She is more depressed when she finds out she is pregnant with his baby. But she finds a diary from him slipped under her door. A diary that says simply Suzanne's diary for Nicholas. Inside, Matt asks her to read it, though it may be hard for her. She finds out that Matt had/has a wife named Suzanne and a son named Nicholas. As she reads on, she begins to understand why Matt has left her. "

"Katies love of her life breaks it off but leaves her a diary to help her understand why, as she reads the diary she discovers a wife and son she didn't know about. The diary is from Suzanne for her son Nicholas and her love for her son and husband, along this ride we find that Suzanne has a major heart problem. The ending is predictable but one of the few really beautiful books I have read in a very long time, it leaves you sad but knowing that life does go on, and sometimes (maybe most of the time) the story ends happliy ever after. This is not the type of bood I normally read, but have loved all of James Pattersons books so I took a chance, I started reading at 8:30a.m. and finished it by 11:00a.m. I never put it down. I think if you give this book a chance you will not regret it I have not had a book touch me like this one in years and years of reading."
