Many thanks to NetGalley and Harper Muse for gifting me both an audio and digital ARC of the latest novel by a favorite, Rea Frey and wonderfully narrated by Brittany Pressley - 5 stars
On a two-week beach vacation, single mom Kate Baker looks away for just a month and her young daughter, Olivia, vanishes among the waves. Kate's world is upended in a second. Then suddenly Olivia resurfaces, happy and fine. But what if she didn't come up? In that other world, Olivia doesn't resurface. Told in those two different timelines, Kate lives two very different lives - one with and without her daughter.
This is a beautifully-written, emotional story of love and motherhood and how life can turn on a dime. Every mother has had that instant heartbreaking feeling of having a child be there one minute and gone the next. In most cases, the child is just hiding, and you find them the next minute. The fear of the other timeline is always there. This book explores those two different timelines in such a unique and thought-provoking way. Highly recommended.
