Good one from a favorite author
Promise Me. Now, I love a good Jill Mansell story and I read this one, one of hers, after a while. The story did not disappoint as the characters were so much fun and happy to get along with, even the grumpy ones. I especially loved the ending.

Jill Mansell is a magical storyteller!
Always a treat to read one of Jill Mansell’s stories. She starts with a single loveable character and gradually pulls in others, some to root for, some to dislike, some to wonder about…all equally interesting.Promise Me features softhearted Lou agreeing to work as a live-in helper to elderly, cantankerous Edgar who doesn’t like anyone or anything.How Lou cheerfully and subtly changes Edgar’s thinking is the heart of this story, and the chapter describing his eventual understanding of how he’s hurt himself and others is truly heartbreaking.As I see it, the story is about integrity - are we genuine? Are the words and reactions we present to others genuine or do we adjust who we are depending on who we are with or what it is we want from them?With humor, multiple love stories, even a cranky dog, Jill Mansell gifts her readers with another witty, wise and heartfelt book.
