Full Circle (The Women In Love Series Book 5)
I like how you could tell the entire time that these two people should be together. At one point, the novel veers into soap opera territory, and I was so upset because it had been so good to that point. They quickly and painlessly deal with it. Everyone in Full Circle behaves like a human. They act like real people and respond like real people, not romance novel characters.
I also loved that Bella and Rafael were always equals on an equal level. My biggest complaint of Full Circle is that I wish it was longer. I wish it lingered in certain plot points and character beats, but overall it was a great palate cleanser from Falling Into Infinity. The following review was originally posted on my book blog The Book Challengers. This one was a rather short and sweet story that tells a story about Bella's success and reluctance to grab the fate by it's horns over the course of almost two decades.
Although Bella basically ran away from her home town when she got pregnant by her high school sweetheart at 19, she managed to make a life for her and her daughter and also excel as a business owner. And there is plenty of talk about the business sid The following review was originally posted on my book blog The Book Challengers. And there is plenty of talk about the business side of things - where to expand, what to sell, etc.
But what Bella doesn't excel all that much at, is love. She and Rafael have a great understanding of each other for the longest time, they're in love with each other for almost 15 years before the two finally do something about and I would love to call this story a real slow burn romance, but unfortunately I felt that there were not enough details and length of story for that. Plus, the somewhat random and big time jumps didn't really help with the slow burn aspect of things.
While the writing is decent, I have to admit that there isn't enough depth for me to really feel the love and romance part of things But in the end I enjoyed it and that's all that really matters, isn't it? Bella leaves her home town because she is pregnant. The father is the son of the textile mill owner. The biggest employer in town. Bella went to California, met a soul mate and had a daughter. They live in the garage apartment that belongs to sofia. She has a daughter the same age as Bella's daughter.
They join forces and design clothing that becomes a major business. They provide many women with jobs in a wonderful working environment. This is such a happy story, women are successful, daughters Bella leaves her home town because she is pregnant. This is such a happy story, women are successful, daughters are happy, business is good, etc. This is a feel good book Bella Thompson is a young teenager, when she learns she is pregnant. Before she can tell her boyfriend he announces he is going to marry someone else.
She has two choices leave town and give up her baby for adoption or leave town and raise her child on her own. She moves to California to raise her child and starts a successful business with her partner Rafaella. Does she pass up the chance for true love? I truly enjoyed this book. Its not your typical teenage pregnancy book. I Look forward to re Bella Thompson is a young teenager, when she learns she is pregnant. I Look forward to reading more books by Mona Ingram This whole story just doesn't make any sense. Not the plot itself, but the reactions by the characters to the events that happen in this book were so unrealistic and just stupid.
Also, the time skips were too much. In almost every chapter there is a large time jump. I think this could have been another decent new adult, but there isn't even much romance at all. A lot of it was about Belle's clothing company, which was super boring. This was just not for me. This was a light and easy to read story that I completed in just a few hours while sitting poolside on a cruise recently.
The storyline was very easy to follow, the words made visual pictures in my head too. However, there seemed to be no real "issues" in the theme with the exception of the beginning.
So much fell into place throughout the story. That being said, the story was good enough to keep my attention. This came to me because Amazon thought it was similar to something else I'd read. Years go by from one paragraph to another, no character development at all, predictable circumstances and resolve.
And where the heck are we??? The best thing is that the poor writing, and lack of a real plot where was the conflict? Sorry, just not one thing to hang a star on, or even hope for. Apr 14, S. I have become a big fan of Mona Ingram's writing. I love her books and this one was no different. I loved the friendship between Bella and Sofia. That is rare to find nowadays.
I also enjoyed the progression of the romance between Bella and Rafael. As an independent woman, I wished that Bella had dated more, just like Rafael. Other than that, this was a good read.
Full Circle
As usual Mona Ingram delivers. I read this book a wile ago and I thought it was great it was a free book and in all honesty I hated the cover but as the saying goes "never judge a book I loved the romance, it is sweet and central without ever proving to be overpowering. The love of a mother for her daughter is touching and the end could not have been better written. It is truly a good romance and I, somebody with no real love for romance enjoyed it thouroughly. Love it from the start to the end.
Full Circle by Mona Ingram
Just finished reading in one night. This is the first book I have read from this author ' Mona Ingram '. Wish the ending was more longer and love to read more of Rafael and Bella. Looking forward to reading more of this author's books. What's nice quick interesting read. I was hooked from the start and finished it far too quickly. Will be looking for other books by this author. This was a lovely little story.
I really don't know what to say about it. If you are looking for something nice, charming and easy to read then this is the book for you. Great story and had me hooked straight away. Nice story about friendship, determination and power. Great storyline, loveable characters. I couldn't put this book down! It is definitely a must read.
Another Kindle freebie that was such a pleasant surprise. What a lovely book! Nov 12, Laura rated it really liked it. Really enjoyed this book.

Fast paced and easy to read with short chapters that make you want to keep reading. The only criticism I have is that due to the shortness of the book, there are often massive time gaps in the story. For example one minute Bella is pregnant and the next she has had the baby and her daughter is 5 years old. So in the turn of a page, from the end of one chapter to the beginning of the next, we have jumped 5 years!

This is why I can't give it 5 stars. Otherwise a very well Really enjoyed this book. Otherwise a very well written book. Would read more by this author again. I think you guys should realize that writing a review doesn't involve telling the story line FOR Expand your writing horizons and quit dogging on people. It was an ok book. Didn't like how from one chapter to the next you lost years. Also didn't like how there was any more mention of Sophia and Valeria in the book. You would have thought maybe when she went back home they would have been there.
It also wasn't very realistic that Melissa didn't have any reaction to finding out about her father, you would have thought there would have been a little bit of a reaction. Full Circle She left town when the one she loved let her down, to marry another. Then twenty years later she is back to open up a factory. But not all is as it was. She has a grown daughter and a business partner who are there for her. Renewed, Canceled, and on the Bubble. The shows that I'm looking forward. Share this Rating Title: Use the HTML below.
