Summary
There he is, my baby boy. His eyes are closed; his tiny rosebud mouth is pursed in sleep. My eyes well up as I catch a whiff of his newborn skin, and I swallow back a wave of emotion. I should feel happy, I should feel grateful, but all I can think about is everything I just lost....
It’s a miracle when Katherine’s baby boy is born healthy. But his twin sister doesn’t survive, and when Katherine is told she can’t have any more children, the loss is almost too much for her to bear.
Katherine always saw herself having a big family: She remembers how the loneliness of being an only child used to overwhelm her, and she is desperate to adopt a sibling for her son.
But her husband, Davis, won’t agree. He worries that Katherine will struggle when the new baby arrives. What if growing their family only adds to the grief she feels over losing her little girl? What if this breaks their marriage apart?
And Katherine is forced to make a choice. Give up the second child she has always dreamed of or risk losing the family she already has?
Listeners of Jodi Picoult, Diane Chamberlain, and Kate Hewitt will remember this story forever.

Relatable
I was given this book to review.
This isn't my usual genre of book, i only generally read thriller/suspense,psychological and this book doesn't come under any of these brackets.
Trigger warning - baby loss.
for a genre i don't usually read, i quite enjoyed this book, however, i was not a fan of the main character Catherine - found her selfish and narsasistic.
it was an easy read, sad in places - is a story that i am sure many people can relate to in real life so for this i would recommend.
