GIVEAWAY TIME!! (please note that the giveaway info in this post is just for FYI sakes. All entries for the actual giveaway must be made on the post on Instagram. Click HERE to go to MomLovesReading on IG.)
Thank you @berkleypub for my gifted copy of ‘A Little Bit of Grace‘ by Phoebe Fox & for sponsoring this giveaway!
A heartfelt story about family, forgiveness, & starting over when the happy ending ends, & handling it all with a little bit of grace.
Family is everything–Grace Adams McHale’s mom must have said it to her a thousand times before she died. Before Grace’s dad ran off with an aspiring actress half his age. Before only-child Grace found out she was unable to have children of her own. Before Brian–her childhood best friend, business partner, & finally her husband–dropped a “bombshell” on her in the form of her stunning new replacement.
Which means Grace now has…nothing.
Until she receives a letter from a woman claiming to be a relative Grace never knew she had, sending her on a journey from the childhood home she had to move back into, to a Florida island to meet a total stranger who embraces her as family. There, Grace starts to uncover answers about the eccentric woman her family never mentioned: an octogenarian who is the keeper of a secret held for more than 50 years.
Such a beautiful, well-written, poignant & witty story about loss, heartache, family & self-discovery that gave me all the feels! And I LOVED Aunt Millie so much! Truly a delightful, captivating story you will not soon forget! And I have (1) copy to giveaway. (Sorry, US residents only).
