Honor, her husband Tom, and their young daughter Chloe are in Paris for Christmas and staying at The Ritz in Paris. Β What could be better? Β Even though they are a family that seems to have it all, there is one more thing Honor wants, and that is another child. Her desire is so strong that it seems to have overtaken their lives. Β Then tragedy strikes and everything changes. Β At the risk of revealing too much of this stunning novel, I will focus only on the quality of its content. Β Just as I was becoming immersed in the story, the author threw a gut punch in. It is so shocking, trust me on this, readers may go back and reread it just to be sure what they think happened really happened. Β It did. Β Then, just to add another dimension, the author chooses an unexpected narrator. Β Ultimately, FINDING GRACE, a debut novel by Loretta Rothschild, is a love story that moves from one life to another. It explores unexpected changes and second chances. Β New characters are introduced, and they blend with those from the past, sometimes with unexpected results. Honesty is a strong and central theme of the story, and its importance is felt throughout the story. Β Beautifully told, packed with emotion, moving and unique, FINDING GRACE is, without a doubt, one of the best books I have ever read. Highly recommended. Β
A twisty, gripping novel that wraps around a deeply moving love story, from an electric new voice in upmarket women’s fiction.
SHE THOUGHT IT WAS FATE. I KNEW IT WASN'T....
Honor seems to have everything: she adores her bright and beautiful daughter, Chloe, and her charming, handsome husband, Tom, even if he works one hundred hours a week. Yet Honor’s longing for another baby threatens to eclipse all of it—until a shocking event changes their lives forever.
Years later, Tom makes a decision that ripples through their families' lives in ways he could never have foreseen. As the consequences of that fateful choice unfold, two women's paths become irrevocably intertwined. But when old love clashes with new, who will be left standing? And what happens when your secrets come back to haunt you?
Blending a page-turning moral dilemma with satisfying emotional poignancy, Finding Grace is a sweeping love story that explores the price of a new beginning, how the ghosts of our past shape our future, and whether redemption can be found in the wreckage of what we've lost.
