It’s a love story…
It’s a love story, not your typical love story, but a love story it is! Wonderfully written, an easy read.
I couldn’t put it down – probably read it in 2 sittings!
This book is just great – I finished it yesterday, and I thoroughly enjoyed the read. You captured so many emotions that helped add to your story, and I loved how you interwove these emotions with the actual events that were responsible for what happened.

I feel I know the family members and something a bit about how they felt and felt as the story progressed.
A great big thank you for writing your book Reaching Beyond The Secrets. The story was great. At points, I choked up. I feel I know the family members and something a bit about how they feel and felt as the story progressed. Not an easy topic to write about. Thank you.
Congratulations, Nancy!
I was so flattered last March when Nancy Virkler asked me if I’d read a memoir she was working on. But also nervous-what if I thought it was terrible? Could I be honest? Nancy said, “don’t worry, I’m tough” and so I became an official reader. I could honestly tell her there was definite merit to her venture and here she is, 9 months later, presenting me with a copy of her book, “Reaching Beyond the Secrets”. I’ve gone from flattered to honored. Congratulations Nancy!

So thought provoking in so many ways.
I started the book last night and finished it today. It was excellent! I cried a lot! It was so thought provoking in so many ways.
My heart broke in some chapters but then again was bursting with happiness in others.
I’m not a huge reader, but I couldn’t put the book down. From the second I picked it up, I was hooked. I cried tears of sadness and tears of overwhelming joy. My heart broke in some chapters but then again was bursting with happiness in others.
This is a book that should be read in a Social Norms class, regarding our society over the last 40 plus years.
It’s not often a book comes along that I can’t put down. A friend of mine wrote one during the pandemic. She reflected back to a time in her life when she had to make an unselfish choice for her child. This was a secret then and 40 plus years later. Her son found his Mom, about 4 years ago when adoption papers were made available in PA. I was literally in tears reading the last chapters.
