It hit me, the reality of it, in a way it hadnt before like a sledgehammer straight to the chest. Laura was gone. She was never coming back. Id never see her again; shed never hum in the kitchen, shed never pull Ruby onto her lap and tickle her tummy as she buried her face in the sweet curve of our daughters shoulder.
Nathan West loved his wife Laura with all his heart. But now shes gone, taken from him in a seemingly random act of violence. Laura was the glue that held their family together. And for Nathan, life without her feels almost meaningless.
As he tries to find hope in the darkness, his three young daughters express their grief in different and challenging ways with one set on a path of self-destruction that could devastate their family all over again. Desperate to understand his own heartbreak better, he reaches out to others who had known Laura. Including her new friend Maria, whose light and warmth are exactly what their grieving family needs, and who is soon helping out and providing emotional support for them all.
But the picture Maria paints of Laura is unfamiliar to Nathan of a wife who felt ignored, a mother who felt she couldnt do enough and he struggles to reconcile it with his own memories of the woman he loved. Is it possible he didnt know his wife after all? And can he trust Maria? He cant escape the feeling that shes keeping something from him.
Maria is hiding a secret with the power to rock Nathans family to its core. Because it is about what happened the day that Laura died
An insightful and powerful novel guaranteed to break your heart, about how the unthinkable can sometimes help us see the world in a powerful new way. Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Diane Chamberlain, and Susan Lewis.
