Recensione:

Elizabeth Forsythe Hailey Resonant with compassion and humor.

Shelby Hearon author of Life Estates Elizabeth Richards speaks to all of us who are lost, who do things we wish we hadn't, who learn almost too late to live differently.

Los Angeles Times [Paige is] a very strong character, well-built by Richards using humor, a talent for dialogue, and a writer's careful observance of love between people of all ages.

Boston Globe The quirky rhythms and breathless pace of Rescue give us a visceral sense of Paige as a woman who runs to keep from standing still....Sophisticated dialogue, a shrewd depiction of the stepparent-stepchild courtship [and] a touch of class.

Sidney Offit author of Memoir of the Bookie's Son The characters that populate Rescue are real people with real problems, and she brings them to the reader with dialogue that is right on pitch. This fast-paced, empathetic novel of complex family relationships is told, too, with an elegant blend of warm feelings and wit.
