Customer Reviews
Keep Smiling through
I have now read all of Ellie Deans books and cannot wait for her to write another. They all revolve around the Reilly family who own Beach View a Boarding House on the South Coast that they transformed into a Billet for evacuees and the homeless in World War Two. I sincerely hope that these novels keep coming.
Ellie Dean Peggy O'Reilly saga (3 books +)
Sensational, had me superglued through all 3 books, absolutely cannot wait for 4th book in January 2013 and many more books to come from this amazing author. Gripping and definitely non stop, stories that keep you wanting more are what reading is about and Ellie Dean possesses this ability. Best author by far!
