This book is a must read for everyone, all ages, book clubs and individuals. We can all be inspired by …more his passion and selfless commitment to these children and to Nepal. (less)

This book includes intriguing topics for discussion. Much of the writing is quite lovely but much of the plot is improbable and has confusing gaps.

The intrigue, the descriptions of the scenery in the Pacific Northwest, and the details about yachting were enjoyable, and I learned quite a bit. The romantic attraction …more was a little too instant. The book was entertaining and a fast read. I liked the short chapters and would enjoy another novel with the same main characters. I wouldn't recommend it for book club discussions. (less)
