8.22.2018 - Not Her Daughter
Many thanks to NetGalley, St Martins Griffins, and Rea Frey for the opportunity to read this gripping novel - loved it and 5 glowing stars!
Sarah is a successful owner of a start-up company that makes educational play kits for children around the world. She's recently broken up with her boyfriend and is struggling. She has a chance meeting with a family at the airport and witnesses the mom being verbally and physically abusive to a little girl, Emma.
Amy is Emma's mom who has never quite connected with Emma the way she did with her youngest child. Amy is full of anger, in a bad marriage, and struggling with all her decisions.
When Sarah has another chance sighting of Emma and witnesses a dramatic event, she takes steps to make sure Emma is in a safe environment.
I couldn't put this book down and loved the way it was written - divided into alternating chapters between Sarah and Amy in before and during sections. What does it mean to be a mom? Is home always your safe place?
