IF Untold
The Novel
Everyone has a past. Everything changes. Some for the better, some for the worst.
Francesca Romano’s life is no fairy tale. Hers is an uncontrolled world of silent tears and torment, where love crumbles and tragedy looms because of things left untold — because of the secrets that are kept. A world where honesty is obsolete, and youthful rebellion turns into total chaos. Francesca tries to gain control when she disappears to a new place, hoping to never be found. To a place where she can start anew, and escape the despair, emptiness and fear of her former world.
When she finds new love and new faith, she feels she is finally on the path to redemption and healing. Until one morning she gets a call, and all that which was left untold, returns to her, to satisfy an unfulfilled promise...

Reviews
This book is amazing. Could not put it down and so well written. Bought one for my mother in law and I and we both read it together and can't stop talking about it. This needs to be made into a movie. Beyond amazing and we can't wait for her next book. Job well done!

It was captivating from the start. Watching the story of these lives unfold before me was magical. I could not put it down and when I had to, I could not wait to get back to it. It kept me wanting more.

OMG! What an amazing story. From the prologue through the epilogue (and the epilogue MUST be read in this book!), I had a hard time putting the book down. Walking through the innocence of Issac's and Francesca's childhood, then through their lives, was both amazing and surprising. This book needs to be made into a movie. I love it.

IF Untold is a novel filled with rock bottom human truth. It shows that small choices throughout our lives can grow into situations we don’t imagine in the moment of our small choice. This novel also shows that people are unpredictable, filled with hope...sorrow...obsession...abuse...regret...and forgiveness. People may be cruel, but everyone has a story. IF Untold is a unique story that shows many sides of the human mind. Thank you to the authors for allowing me to read the final manuscript. I have not had so many emotions surface, and then brought to tears, from a book in a loooong time. What an incredible novel.

Could not put down!!! Great story line and the details made sure that the reader could picture everything that was going on.

IF Untold is the book to read. Once you read the prologue, you’ll want to continue reading this book. The storyline has a little bit of everything; young love, family life, relationship struggles, romance, mystery and more. You won’t be able to put the book down because you’ll want to know what happens next. You’ll get to know the characters as if you really know them personally and want the best for them. I wonder if the story will continue in a new book? I hope so, as this storyline is fantastic! I can’t recommend this book enough. Very well written. Seriously, pick up a copy! You won’t regret it!

I could not put this book down. I normally take a few days or weeks to read a book, I finished it in a day! You get pulled in within the first few sentences of the book. This book needs to be a movie. Lifetime or Netflix where are you? I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who wants a book they cant put down.

This book had me rapt immediately from the prologue wondering what was coming. The character development throughout the story is incredible the way it sneaks up on you. The scenes are so detailed and realistic that some will have you soaring with the character and some will leave you devastated with them. The fear and feelings of danger slowly creep in until the hair on the back of your neck stands up and you find that your heart is starting to beat faster. It will gasping at times, laughing at others, and even yelling at the characters. Pick up If Untold and clear your schedule for the rest of the day, because you will NOT want to stop until it is finished.
