A beautiful and emotional page turner about , loss , promises and finding love in the most unexpected of places
Woken in the middle of the night by the horrific news that her estranged sister has been killed in a fatal car crash, Sophie abruptly finds herself guardian to a niece, Alana, she never knew existed. The baby gives Sophie a way to cope with her grief, and a new focus to her life, but the unexpected appearance of Samson, Alana’s father, wanting his daughter to now live with him, threatens to destroy Sophie’s newly formed family.
Can Sophie and the seemingly feckless Samson, reach a compromise, or will Sophie be forced to give up her sister’s baby?
Today is my day to highlight this wonderful book, Her Sister’s Baby by Emma Bennet for the Blog Tour. Don’t forget to check out the other stops on the tour too!
My Review:
This is an emotional journey about a woman, Sophie, who was woken up in the middle of the night to find out her sister has died in a car accident. With no other family, Sophie takes over custody of her sister’s baby, Alana.
Sadie, dealing with the grief of losing her sister and overwhelmed by caring for a newborn baby struggles with the decisions of caring for the baby. She must also figure out how to juggle her demanding career with the needs of her sister’s baby.
Then Samson shows up and learns tells Sophie he’s the father of the baby, Sophie feels immediately threatened as he wants to spend time with his daughter, Alana.
I enjoyed this fast-paced read. It immediately grabs you and takes you on this journey with Sadie, as she has to figure out how to be a mother and learn to handle Alana’s father as well. These characters are well developed and I cared for all of them.
I recommend this book to anyone looking for a book about families, however they are made. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
