 This Lesson is not to be missed!

This book touched me in so many ways, right down to my core! The characters are wonderfully believable and real. Their struggles are universal. The prose is beautiful. Bravo!

 Lovely Read

This book touched me in so many ways. The characters are developed beautifully; the reader can see them, they are so well described. The author brings us through Caroline’s turmoil and life changes with eloquence and paints the reader a beautiful picture of the place where the transformation occurs. You need to be ready with tissues at the end!

 This Series is a Hallmark Movie Recommendation

I highly recommend this book along with the first two. Miss Belle has out done herself. This trilogy could actually be a Hallmark movie. I was so excited to finally read the last one.But also sad that it ended. Again I highly recommend this series of books you won’t be disappointed

Captivating story that I couldn’t put down!

“The Lesson” is a captivating story of four women from four different eras each facing unique challenges. The story and the characters are incredibly compelling – DeCosta does a brilliant job of drawing the reader into each of their worlds. I was engrossed from the start in each woman’s journey and without giving anything away, loved the way it all came together in the end. A fabulous read that will leave a lasting impression on its readers.
