Summary
All their lives, Alice Stanhope and her daughter, Zoe, have been a family of two, living quietly in Northern California. Zoe has always struggled with crippling social anxiety, and her mother has been her constant and fierce protector. With no family to speak of and the identity of Zoe's father shrouded in mystery, their team of two works - until it doesn't. Until Alice gets sick and needs to fight for her life.
Desperate to find stability for Zoe, Alice reaches out to two women who are practically strangers but who are her only hope: Kate, a nurse, and Sonja, a social worker. As the four of them come together, a chain of events is set into motion, and all four of them must confront their sharpest fears and secrets - secrets about abandonment, abuse, estrangement, and the deepest longing for family.
Imbued with heart and humor in even the darkest moments, The Mother's Promise is an unforgettable audiobook about the unbreakable bonds between mothers and daughters and the new ways in which families are forged.

Fabulous
I nearly returned this book but went back and looked at the reviews and one said it took a little time to get into, so I thought I’ll give it another go! I am so glad I did this is a beautifully written book where you feel like you know the characters inside out. It brought a smile to my face along with tears. A true 5 star listen

Beautifully written
I enjoyed this book so much that I was sad when it ended. Laughed and had a bit of a cry as well.
