Publisher Description

At seventeen, Rosalind "Lin” Townsend found herself pregnant and alone. Her deeply religious father threw her out of the house, and Nick Pemberton, her baby’s father, refused to marry her. Yet even at the lowest point in her life, Lin vowed to succeed on her own terms, and to give her son, Will, all the love and happiness she’d been denied. Nineteen years later, Lin has made good on her promises, and Will is about to start his freshman year at NYU. But when Lin visits New York with Will, she crosses paths with the one man she thought she’d never see again – Nick Pemberton, now a millionaire CEO, and the man who send back all her letters unopened. Seeing him fills Lin with anger, and she resolves to right the wrong he did to Will. If she succeeds, like she has with everything else, the cost of revenge may be the loss of a bright new future…

"Another good book by Fern Michaels. Interesting start, great middle, and hurried ending. Like it all just wished the ending would be more detailed. Great plot thou, about woman who accomplished much more in life then average person in face of severe hardship. Loved the story overall. "

    " This is one of only a few of Michaels books I've read that wasn't in the sisterhood series. I much prefer those, but this one was okay. It kept my attention once I got into it, but the ending was a little shaky. It spent so much time getting to it, and just rushed right through the ending. I wish the ending had been a little more substantial. "

    " The whole story was pretty unbelievable from start to finish. All those horrible things don't happen to a person and then they end up on top of the world at 35!..... that's fantasy. And although I did read til the end, I can't say its one of Fern Michael's best. "

    " A fast paced reading. I liked the way the author gave us background to the main character (Lin), then jumped forward 17 years to when her son is entering NYU. We didn't have to wade through his growing up years which were immaterial to the story. Young girl (Lin) is raised in an abusive environment and is thrown out of her house with only the clothes on her back when her father discovers she is pregnant. She manages to raise her son and make something of herself. As her son enters NYU, she attends the welcoming ceremony for freshman, and lo and behold, the father of her son is the guest speaker. The son does not know his father is even alive. Lin has carried with her, for all these years, the letters she wrote to the father but were returned, all stamped "return to sender". She's furious she had to struggle to have money for food and he's a rich SOB. Revenge: she wants him to know what it's like to have no money and no control of his life and to sully his reputation. And she takes action to do just that with the help of a private eye who used to work for this SOB and is more than willing to assist her. The father is not a nice man, he treats his driver, his housekeeper, his wife, his employees, his lawyer, his accountant, like dirt. I wanted to see something bad happen to him. Then I took a step back and felt ashamed that I was wanting something bad to happen to him at the hands of another (not murder, just something bad). Although the ending was predictable, I have misgivings about the means to the end. This is the same author that writes the Sisterhood books, the women who work together to bring justice to wrong-doers when the judicial system has failed. There's a trend here in her writings and I'm now curious what her background and youth was like that leads her to write about women making things "right". "

    " Was ok. Lin has troubled childhood. Gets pregnant. Raises son by herself and becomes successful. Sees son's father again and tries to get revenge. The revenge is a little extreme and not in character for Lin. All works out. Son and father meet. Lin finds new love. "
