Summary

When Stephanie is told she’s pregnant and that she is sick on the same day, she faces an impossible choice…

After trying for a baby for so long, finding out I was pregnant was supposed to be the happiest day of my life. But in the same breath as the news I had been waiting years to hear, the doctor told me I was seriously ill.

If I carry my baby to term, I will almost certainly die.

If I proceed with treatment, my baby will not live.

My husband – the father of this child – is telling me to save myself. But with all the secrets I know he is keeping from me, I can’t trust him anymore.

What would you do?

An emotional yet uplifting tear-jerker that will have you reaching for the tissues – perfect for fans of EMMA ROBINSON and JODI PICOULT.

Critic reviews

‘Beautiful, emotional and hopeful, but have tissues to hand.’ Liz Fenwick

‘Tragic but ultimately uplifting.’ Katie Fforde

‘A heartfelt and suspenseful tale of an agonising life-and-death dilemma…this is a family drama that doesn’t shy away from sadness and conflict but powers towards an ultimately hopeful conclusion.’ Ali Mercer

A powerful, moving and beautifully written novel

I was gripped by this incredible novel from beginning to end. The storyline was captivating in itself, but the way it was written was stunning. It was unpredictable with lots of twists and turns but ultimately full of hope. I highly recommend
