Allison
O'Malley's plan is to go to grad school so she can get a good job and
take care of her schizophrenic mother. She has carefully closed herself
off from everything else, including a relationship with Ethan, who she's
been in love with for as long as she can remember.
What is definitely not part of the plan is the return of her long-lost father, who claims he can bring Allison's mother back from the dark place her mind has gone. Allison doesn't trust her father, so why would she believe his stories about a long forgotten Irish people, the Tuatha de Danaan? But truths have a way of revealing themselves. Secrets will eventually surface. And Allison must learn to set aside her plan and work with her father if there is even a small chance it could restore her mother's sanity.

I was given an ARC for an Honest Review.
Laura Howard Totally rocks.I have literally been waiting to read The Forgotten Ones for what feels like forever.This is the story of Allison dealing with her mothers Schizophrenia.She feels guilty that her family have had to help so she is trying to make it so she can do it on her own.She pushes people away because of it.Ethan is a guy who is trying very very hard to break through her walls.Liam comes to town and with him comes many surprises which are unexpected for Allison.She takes it better then I would.That is all I am saying.I do not like giving spoilers so that is that.Lips sealed.
This is definitely a must read in my book.Isn't the cover beautiful?Its so much more then what you think its going to be.It has the first tinges of a romance happening.It has Irish Folk Lore,it has exceptional secondary characters. The best part of The Forgotten Ones is that it draws you in and leaves you wanting more.I am eagerly awaiting Book number 2 and Will probrably start to Pickett Laura Howard's Facebook page to get it out there.Trust me on this.Read it.You will be so happy you did!It has definitely been worth the wait.Laura you did an amazing job and I will be looking forward to reading more by you.Thats a fact jack.

Laura
Howard lives in New Hampshire with her husband and four children. Her
obsession with books began at the age of 6 when she got her first
library card. Nancy Drew, Sweet Valley High and other girly novels were
routinely devoured in single sittings. Books took a backseat to diapers
when she had her first child. It wasn’t until the release of a little
novel called Twilight, 8 years later, that she rediscovered her love of
fiction. Soon after, her own characters began to make
themselves known. The Forgotten Ones is her first published novel.
