There were parts of this story that I loved and then there were parts that just kind of dragged for me. I loved the relationship between the brothers but I was sad at the situation that took place, I was hoping this story took a different route in the storyline. And then at around the 75% mark we kind of drifted in another area that kind of dragged for me. I enjoyed Isabel’s part and her character was truly a mother figure and giving workers an opportunity to earn their wages. As a debut this was a really impactful story and the writing was well done!
