Book Review: Unfinished Business by Tricia Daniels

Tweet

Tricia Daniels is a local indie author. She has attended many author events. Upon saying she wrote romance, she was advised not to say romance but to say women's fiction. Here is one of her stories. ~~~~ I've had intuitive moments since I was a little girl. My siblings don't seem to share the gift, if you can call it that. If they do, they've kept it a secret. When I was a teenager, my overthinking complicated things. I avoided Alex for more than seventeen years because of it. I made some bad decisions back then because I never really understood my gift until I was older. As the stars finally align, the universe pushes us back together and a new destiny begins to unfold. Twists and turns in the road being laid out before us will force us to face our fears and insecurities. And this time I sense Alex and I aren't the only ones with unfinished business. ~~~~ This book is labeled as a romance - I'd say a second chance romance. The picture on the cover indicates romance. And yes, there is romance, but there is a whole lot more to this story. There are relationships (parents and son; siblings; mother and daughter; and the one that got away). I call this Women's Fiction. Seventeen years after a puzzling break-up, Alex and Maya find themselves together again. But there is a whole lot going on around them with Maya's mother being sick, her ex-husband coming back to see her and her son, signs and messages from the beyond, drama between sisters, dealing with patients with Alheizmers. I kind of could relate to a lot of what happened here, including the mother and child relationship. I absolutely loved this story and could not put it down. Tricia Daniels has a knack for telling a great story. There is a whole lot packed into this little book (254 pages), but it didn't feel rushed. On a personal note, this book is part of a new series called Love In The Hills of The Headwaters. Headwaters is the region in which I currently live so it was close to home. Tricia Daniels also lives in this area and we have been acquaintances. I highly recommend this read.
