Description
Gracie knew she wanted a baby. But she never thought things would go this far.
Gracie Brookman has a seemingly perfect life: her husband George, a successful military intelligence officer, is absolutely crazy about her, they live in a big house, and she has all the free time she wants. But as the days start to blend into each other, an empty feeling gnaws at Gracie as she realizes something is missing.
Then, one night, as she sits in her car in a huge parking lot of a rural mall, Gracie receives a phone call that shatters her life: George is gone. For good. Gracie can’t remember exactly what happened next. All she knows is that she saw the woman in the car nearby leave the door open, and there she was: a sweet baby all by herself. Next thing she knows, the baby is in Gracie’s car, as she speeds away as fast as she can.
Looking for a safe home for her and the baby, Gracie reconnects with her childhood friend, Jordy, and it’s as if she can breathe again. But Gracie can’t keep running forever. She knows the secret she is keeping is bound to get her. She knows that this baby is not hers to keep.
A gripping, suspenseful page-turner full of twists and turns, Not Mine to Keep is perfect for fans of Laura Elliot and Emma Robinson.
Advance Praise
***** Unpredictable and Gripping
Grace’s suburban life, both comfortable and predictable, is suddenly turned on its head... believable and gripping... From an unreachable and opaque frustrated childless housewife Grace is revealed to be a complex yet remarkably caring and resourceful survivor. Now I’m waiting for the movie. [Richard Codor, Amazon]
***** So glad I read it. Probably will reread it, even.
Exciting plot, great hook. No way to predict what happens before each twist, but completely credible after the event. Strong, weak, relatable, and interesting characters. Like real life, amazing potentials for grief or grace at every turn. Can't wait for the sequel. [Katherine Ralston, Amazon]
