Rosie deserves all her success. She is a talented storyteller and will go all the way to the top.  Dee Williams

Sincerity, warmth and the all too rare skills of a true storyteller shine through Rosie Goodwin's writing, and in No One's Girl she engages us with characters that we are immediately rooting for. Rosie's the real thing - a writer who has something to say and knows how to say it.  Gilda O'Neil

A touching and powerful new novel from a wonderful writer.  Bookseller

A gifted writer. Tells a cracking story and does so with an insight into people that is rarely found. Not only is Goodwin's characterisation and dialogue compelling, but her descriptive writing is a joy. At the risk of offending an army of Cookson fans, I think Goodwin will more than fill the late great saga queen's shoes.  Nottingham Evening Post

Fans of Jo Cox have a kindred spirit in Rosie Goodwin. Dancing Till Midnight exercises your emotions - and leaves them glowing.  World Books

A good tearjerker...compelling.  Reading Evening Post

[Moonlight and Ashes is] a heart-throbber of a story from Goodwin that puts many other so-called emotional blockbusters in the shade. A foster carer herself and a former social worker, she knows the nitty-gritty of life in which relationships are a patchwork of joy and sorrow, understanding and hostility.  The Northern Echo
