Product Description

Review

'This is vintage Cox. Passionate and touching, an irresistible read. It's a perfect book to while away an afternoon. Just make sure to hide Born Bad away from your mum and grandmother because they'll love it too.' News of the World --News of the World


Product Description

The powerful new bestseller from the nation's favourite storyteller Harry always knew he would go back one day ! Eighteen years ago when he was a boy, he had made a decision that drove him from the place he knew and loved. In those early years, between boy and man, he had carved out a life for himself, and somehow, he had found a semblance of peace.Yet through every waking moment during those long aching years, he was haunted by what happened when he was a boy. He had never forgotten that warm, carefree girl with the laughing eyes. Then he recalled the sadness, the bad timings and even now, he could not forgive himself. They say you never forget your first love and it's true. You could have a dozen loving relationships and even settle down with someone you would die for, but your first love is always there, safe and protected in your heart and soul. Now for the first time in all those years, Harry is heading back. Excited, afraid, and full of doubts, he knows he has no choice. Rightly or wrongly, he needs to know the outcome of what happened all those years ago. And most importantly, he needs to find forgiveness.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, 29 May 2009
By Christine Graham - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Interesting to see other Josephine Cox fans found this disappointing, but unlike the others, I didn't finish the book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, 5 Mar 2009
I have loved many of Josephine cox's books, but this one took forever to actually get going, there was a great deal of repetition and also lots of word filling and over descriptiveness. It is not until towards the very end that you get an idea of where the storyline is heading. I struggled to get to the end of this book but persevered and reading a good book should be a joy not a perseverence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sadness,Laughter,Joy., 19 April 2009
By Maria Cox (Kent, England.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a long time fan of Josephine Cox this new book Born Bad couldn't have come soon enough, l bought the hard back because l couldn't wait for it to come into paper back, it grips you from the first page, as do all her books, it has everything,great sadness, but don't be put off by this as it is the start of a great journey for two people,laughter, it made me laugh out loud with that great down to earth northern humour and lastly joy,that so much happiness can come from so much heartache.
What a great read couldn't put it down once l started and what a shame when l finished.
