I’m delighted to be part of the tour today for this wonderful book. Thanks to Bookouture for the copy of the book and invitation to be part of the tour.
Book Description:
Not Noah. Not my husband. But there he is, unconscious in the hospital bed. Our daughter sobs into my shoulder. We love him so much. What if he never wakes up? And who is the little girl beside him, gazing up at us with big, tear-filled brown eyes? Eyes that look just like my husband’s…
Our family of three is perfect. Just me, Noah and our teenage daughter Maya. The day the police knock at our door, telling us about the car accident, is the worst day of my life. My heart shatters, but what they say next almost makes it stop beating: Noah was in the car with another woman who died at the scene. Her two-year-old girl, Luna, miraculously survived.
With Noah fighting for his life, I’m desperate for the truth: and when I search his desk, I find checks made out to Luna’s mother. Did my loving, loyal husband have a secret family all along?
Despite my own terrible pain, at the hospital I can’t help but comfort this poor child as she cries for her mommy. With nowhere else for Luna to go, I find myself opening our home. Seeing Maya hold Luna’s hand and giggle as they chase butterflies in the garden, it’s almost like my daughter has a sister…
I have an impossible choice. Do I tell Maya the truth about her father? If Noah wakes up, will even more secrets come out about who he really is? And can I forgive him enough to give this sweet, innocent girl a home… or will my husband’s betrayal tear us all apart?
Fans of Jodi Picoult’s My Sister’s Keeper, Kate Hewitt and Diane Chamberlain will adore this absolutely unputdownable read about how the people we love most can hide the darkest secrets.
My Review:
What an emotional read this book is. Emma is devasted when Noah is in an accident, but what follows makes her question everything about her husband and his past.
I really admired Emma for both her kindness and empathy towards Luna, the little girl who was in the car, and her quest for the truth. She could have washed her hands of it all and remained in denial, but she wants to find out more, and face up to whatever secrets she might find.
This novel will completely draw you in and not let you go until the very end. I found myself completely absorbed in it, unable to tear myself away until the last page. Beautiful, compelling and poignant, a completely engrossing read. I loved it.
