The story follows a young Ukrainian woman named Klarysa. She has not been lucky in the love department and finds herself divorced and carrying for her young child alone. Without going into  much of the story she makes a promise to a  dying friend that will be hard to keep.   It was interesting to read about Ukrainian culture and learn words they spoke. That was the highlight of the entire story. 

Sergey is a nice character who makes a promise to his dying wife that finds him uncomfortable carrying out her wish. The story was clunky at times and didn't quite hit the mark. I don't usually say much about grammar or errors in a book, but this one is in desperate need of an editing overhaul. It    lacked the flow you want in a story and was hard to really like the characters.

It had divorce, death, abuse and little to no  faith element in the story. I found it to be predictable and not very entertaining. The author has a good concept but didn't develop her characters well. There were a few funny moments but the drama and sadness outweighed everything that would make the story enjoyable to read. I didn't care for how the two got together and there was too much death in the story for my taste. 

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.
