My Thoughts: y Thoughts:  Always Orchid by Carol Van Den Hende started as it meant to go on – an emotional roller coaster. The prose was well written and flowed like a good river should with ebbs and  waves. The relationship between Phoenix and his twin brother Caleb was enthralling. I really enjoyed the conversation between the two. There were surprises early on in the book which kept me intrigued and guessing and the surprises kept on coming.

The characters were well developed and felt real to me which added to the authenticity. As I was invested in the main protagonists the book became more of an emotional rollercoaster with Orchid and Phoenix’s relationship. I liked the fact that each chapter came form a different point of view.

In conclusion a great book that I couldn’t put down, be ready for an emotional journey with the main protagonists that may well leave you laughing and crying a great book for lovers of romance but although it was a book about love, it was also about adversity, hope, fear and triumph.
