"Butterfly Cottage" by Carrie Fancett Pagels coves issues such as alcoholism, cancer, and infidelity. This novel is about a grandmother, a mother and a granddaughter. I felt drawn into the story from the beginning till the end.
I really can't pick a favorite of the three because they all tugged at my heartstrings. I wanted all three to have a happy ever . You know, you don't want me to tell you if they did or not because you want to read and find out for yourself.
This story is fiction but "Real Life" . I know this story has happen to a family or two.
If you like real life stories that makes you want to jump into the pages and hug the characters and tell them you understand what they are going through and it will be okay eventually you'll love "Butterfly Cottage" by Carrie Fancett Pagels.
I think this novel would make a great movie if the script writers followed the book exactly as it written.
I received a complimentary copy from the author and these opinions are my own.
Thanks Debbie for such a wonderful review! I pray this story is made into a special movie one day!
