Bestselling author of The Last Days of Us, Caroline Finnerty, returns with another tearjerker of love, motherhood and what it takes to overcome tragedy. The Child I Long For publishes today with Boldwood Books.
Emily is back in Ireland after nine long years away from home, when she sees him. Her ex-husband, Rob, holding hands with a five-year-old girl. A girl that should be hers.
Over a decade before, Emily and Rob were in love and happily married. Then tragedy struck and Emily moved to New Zealand to get away. Now, returning to Dublin nearly a decade later for her mother’s funeral, she finds herself face-to-face with her past. The man she loved has a daughter, beautiful little Molly, and Emily’s heart breaks yet again for everything that could have – should have – been.
But Rob and Molly’s lives aren’t without their own misfortunes.
Could a second chance at family heal all their broken hearts?
Caroline is the author of several tender novels for fans of Amanda Prowse, Emma Robinson and Alison Ragsdale. Take a look at her wider list here.
