The choices we make in life don't seem important sometimes but have you ever thought how they will affect your grandchildren? Or even great-grandchildren? This book is about how the choices we make are not always easy but as the characters push through them they realise that it ALWAYS gets better.

Peach is nineteen, heartbroken after a recent break-up, she has her two best friends and sister, Stella, close at her side. Life seems to be improving but when she takes a job at a cafe she finds herself discovering more than she wants to. The convent where it is based happens to be the place where several generations of her family have grown up. Peach finds herself drawn into a world of prayers, strict religion and forbidden love. With her new discoveries she feels more alone than ever...

I think to enjoy this book you have to like history or religious topics because there is quite a lot of detail on the Convent. However I do not particularly like those subjects and found the book interestingly different so I guess it's up to you.

The storyline did develop but it took me a while to get my head around all the characters because the book jumps around from year to year. I also enjoyed reading the ending, although there were some characters I wished I had known more about.

Anyone interested in nuns or living in a convent with only God by your side should definitely read this realistic novel. It reveals that life isn't always straight forward and you need to take what is thrown at you with open arms and smile; because with the support of others you can push through it.
