If ever in life, you gave up true love or actually believe it doesn’t exist! Probably because of the different situations you have been through and what you have seen from the people closest to you such as your parents going through a bad divorce. Parents neglecting their duties. (To be particular, being present in your life ). And you inclusive, constantly making bad decisions when it comes to finding your life partner. Well, here is some good news. Your not the first or the last one. But most importantly, never lose hope.

One way or another is a beautiful novel. Four sisters try to thrive on building and helping one anther at all times whenever they can and are a perfect family. They are born wealthy but prefer to individually earn their own living but all this covers up the truth. The truth, that they don’t intended on sharing with anyone.

Andi, Calder, Bryce and Destry . They are four sister that have known pain and come to turns with their fate. A mother that has had six divorces, relationships with men they lost count of, yet she still lives her life without a care in the world and is about to give birth to a child from their worst enemy when her last divorce is not yet finalised at all. Each sister has a different father. Calder and Bryce are twins that shared the womb but not fathers. The only common thing about their fathers is they all ask money from their kids. Besides so much confusion and constant disappointments, like the saying goes, every cloud has a silver lining. This is exactly what happens.

Calder gets lucky with love and intends to hold on to the man she thinks is the one. After screening from the sisters, the lucky man joins the squad. He is protective with a reason. After someone he loves got raped by multiple men for almost 5 hours and the criminals still walk free. Calder’s giving chance to love and being vulnerable leads to her sisters believing there are still good men out there.

Disappointments, love and drama are what One way or another portrays. The fact that there is emphasis on cling to hope is what makes the novel entertaining. The writer uses clear descriptive visuals to stir up the readers emotions which I liked. I recommend this novel to all those who have given up on love and probably have no hope. Just when you think your life is the worst then comes those that live in the turmoil but smile and shine everyday. Then you need to rethink the reason for your distress. There is always a silver lining.

Overall, I rate this novel 4 out of 4 stars. This is because I loved every part of it. It is a fiction novel with highly relatable real life situations. Great for entertainment and lighting up the mood.

This is a nice review. Thanks for it. The book actually has got a nice message to pass across to the reader. The four sisters are very likable. I like how they decide to work hard on their own.
