Heartbreaking, heartwarming and absolutely stupendous. I loved it!' Celia Anderson, author'Heartbreaking but brimming with hope. This wonderfully original and deftly crafted story hooked me from the first page. Shelley's story will stay with me for a long time.' Nicola Gill, author'I absolutely adored The Day Shelley Woodhouse Woke Up. I loved the dual timeline, it kept me guessing throughout, and I loved the cast of characters around Shelley - the friends and family who helped her find herself and her lost memories again. It dealt with some sensitive issues with care, and I was completely lost in Shelley's world, desperate for her to rediscover her truth.' Clare Swatman, author'Intriguing, moving and full of compassion... Will stay with me for a long time to come. In Shelley, Pearson has created a character who represents abused women as so much more than the victims of their abuser. Shelley is funny and brave, she's a friend, a business owner, a daughter, a partner. Her strength shines through from the very first page... Part mystery, part emotional drama and entirely engrossing, I highly recommend you read this book.' Lisa Timoney, authorPraise for Laura Pearson:'Even when I couldn't see properly as the tears streamed down my face rivalling the force of the Niagara Falls, I couldn't put this novel down. It is raw, it is devastating (yes, I'm aware I've used that word before but it is!) and yet, it's wonderful and I absolutely loved it!'
