The Memory Child - Review & Giveaway


Review by Darcey Pickett

A story of love, happiness and the internal struggle of an expectant mother. 

Children bring happiness…Brian and Diane were living their dreams, successful and happily in love.  Diane finds out she is pregnant, and panic settles in.  Brian is thrilled a baby would make their lives complete.

Brian has been recently promoted and his new role takes him to London.  Diane also is moving along in her career, when she finds out she is pregnant.  Brian leaves for London; Diane is left to deal with her deals and internal struggle with her new pregnancy.  With the arrival of her daughter, she realizes what a blessing a child truly can be.

This was a very real story, dealing with some of the untold things some women struggle with while pregnant.  I enjoyed the journey, because of the realness and also that is was not a straightforward love story.  It was a story that had the twist and turns I crave while reading a book.  Ms. Holmes has a remarkable way of telling a story without leaving you feeling lost or empty inside.

Purchase the book at:
Amazon * B&N
