Publisher's Summary

You know you can’t keep your baby. But can you trust someone else with their life? 

When Heather finds herself unexpectedly pregnant, she knows there is no way she can keep her baby. She can barely manage to stay afloat as it is. But how can she stop herself from loving the child as it grows inside her?

She thinks she’s found the perfect adoptive mother in Grace. Confident and wealthy, Grace has everything that Heather doesn’t. But when the heartbreaking moment arrives, will Heather be able to give up her baby? And if she can’t, what will this mean for Grace?

Two women’s lives are forever entwined by the love for the same child and by the agonizing choices they will both have to make. A Mother’s Choice will make listeners ask themselves what it truly means to be a parent and whether they could make an ultimately selfless decision when it comes to their child’s future.

A Mother’s Choice is a heartbreaking and compelling emotional drama with a tear-jerking twist - perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Kelly Rimmer, and Diane Chamberlain.

Twists and turns to plot

I really enjoyed this book and the storyline took a lot of twists and turns I didn’t see coming…. I can imagine this being made into a Hollywood movie… great read as long as you have tissues close by

Such an emotionally charged but beautifully crafted story of love, sacrifice and loss. Just breathless

Easy read

I enjoyed this story after initially expecting it to be a little soppy... it drew me in and I had to keep going - so glad that I did!

Not my sort of book

I found this a bit depressing but I guess life isn’t all happy times. Struggled to finish it, predictable half way through. Narrator used the same monotone, a little bit dreary. Now for a happy book.
