- Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2021Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThis was recommended to me. Not my typical genre of reading, but why not? I was surprised by how quickly I was drawn in and how much I enjoyed it this story of an emotional awakening. It's a story of lives almost beyond repair ... or are they? You'll have to read it yourself t find out. But one thing is for sure, it will draw you and will be a page turner (*cough .. page swiper).

- Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2021Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseA captivating tale of love, loss, betrayal, and oh, I won’t spoil it... except to say I want to know what happens next for the ‘Montgomery family.’ The author wisely chose to tell this tale from the multiple narrative perspective to enhance the highly descriptive writing style. Filled with raw emotions and authentic dialogue, I can’t wait to see what happens to this family next… I’m emotionally entangled with them now…
- Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2021Format: KindleFrom the very beginning, I was drawn into the Buried Secrets of the Montgomery family and their web of sadness, anger, grief, and frustration. The parents and their sons try to regain a sense of normalcy after the death of their beloved daughter/sister, Angelina. In truth, their problems began long before, and now they are stretched almost beyond repair. Robert, the father is carrying enormous guilt. Lucy, his wife, is unable to face reality in her grief. James turns his grief inward, withdrawing and lashing out in rage, and spiritually gifted Elijah holds the family together as best he can. Liberty Forest is a master storyteller, as she skillfully brings each character to life in all their complications. I pretty much inhaled the book, completing it within 24 hours and I am eagerly looking forward the next installment in the Montgomery Chronicles.
