Thank you Netgalley and Bookouture for this ARC!

Lily, John, their best friend Hannah, and Lily and John's three children go together to spend the day at a local theme park. While Lily, John and the two older children are enjoying a rollercoaster, Hannah and baby Ella mysteriously vanish.

This book was a quick and exciting read. It went in directions I did not guess! It touched on several important issues, including the importance of not making assumptions, infertility, and cancer/end of life decisions.

I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a quick and suspenseful read.

Isn’t it wonderful to have someone you are so close to that it feels like they are family? You can share everything with them: the good things and the bad ones, the happy and the sad ones. They will always be there for you, like you will be for them. No matter what…
This sounds so good you would like it to happen in real life too, but unfortunately it’s not always like that. You keep in touch, you see each other often, but there is not only just school to worry about anymore. What you call venting might be seen as complaining by the other party. You drift apart a little because you made a promise. They start putting two and two together and come up with five, the already rather fragile relationship might be on the verge to breaking beyond repair on the worst possible moment …
When you are struggling to keep all the balls in the air, you might be envious of someone with a less hectic life. You might long for some peace and quiet, but honestly would you ever really want to trade places? Of course not, but some might see it as being ungrateful for everything you have got. They feel you don’t deserve it and take the matter in their own hands…
A lot of heartbreak in this very emotional story but also a lot of very beautiful moments that kept the tears flowing. The book kept me up till 2.30 because I wanted to finish it. I could not put it away and leave the rest for the next day. Once you are in the flow, you just have to go with it. 5 stars

Thank you, Sam Vickery and Bookouture

First, I want to thank Sam Vickery, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

Save My Daughter is every parents worst nightmare come true. Sam Vickery's story is beautifully written, powerful, intense, and an incredibly emotional read. This is one to add to your TBR list.

Sam dedicates this book to her daughter, Aurora. That is such a beautiful name! She is her joy, her little shadow, and her love. She makes her smile a thousand times a day!

To the graphic artist who created the cover for Save My Daughter it is such a beautiful cover! The image of the sweet girl sitting in that beautiful scenery definitely captures the reader's attention. Not to mention the colors are so bright and cheery.

Sam incorporates some very important lessons into her book that will make everyone think twice. You never know what someone is going through unless you have walked in their shoes.

Other than important lessons she writes about important topics. Topics such as abduction, abortion, sperm donors, IVF, Non Hoskins Lymphoma and Leukemia.

Sam wrote some intense emotional scenes that totally tugged on my heart strings. Then again Sam always has a way of doing that to me in her stories. She is one author that I would read anything by.

I am a very proud Auntie and I couldn’t imagine if something like this were to happen to any of them. I was at the edge of my comfy chair in shock and literally felt everything Lily and Jon were going though. That part of the book was written extremely well!

The events leading up to the ending and even in the epilogue I didn't see coming. She surprised me on a few levels.

Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for allowing me to read this Arc.
Have your tissues at the ready because you're going to need them.
A beautiful story, filled with love. But there are twists, and some will have your heart stopping.
Definitely worth five stars.
