SHE THOUGHT IT WAS FATE. I KNEW IT WASN'T....

Honor seems to have everything: she adores her bright and beautiful daughter, Chloe, and her charming, handsome husband, Tom, even if he works one hundred hours a week. Yet Honor’s longing for another baby threatens to eclipse all of it―until a shocking event changes their lives forever.

Years later, Tom makes a decision that ripples through their families' lives in ways he could never have foreseen. As the consequences of that fateful choice unfold, two women's paths become irrevocably intertwined. But when old love clashes with new, who will be left standing? And what happens when your secrets come back to haunt you?

Blending a page-turning moral dilemma with satisfying emotional poignancy, Finding Grace is a sweeping love story that explores the price of a new beginning, how the ghosts of our past shape our future, and whether redemption can be found in the wreckage of what we've lost.

I was so excited to read this book, and whilst it did not disappoint, I was not ready for that first chapter. Best first chapter EVER! This book had me gripped from start to finish. A real page turner that draws you deeply into the characters lives. A beautifully written, heartfelt, twisty, and totally gorgeous debut that just made Loretta Rothschild an auto buy author for me. I LOVED every single page of this book.

The first chapter ends like a cartoon anvil dropping straight onto your head—sudden, shocking, and impossible to ignore. That moment completely pulled me in. While I’m not usually a big fan of romance, this story had enough twists and unexpected turns to keep me invested and constantly guessing what would come next. Overall, it was very well done and far more gripping than I expected.

I approached "Finding Grace" with minimal prior knowledge, having only read its blurb, and I am thrilled that I did. The opening chapter was unforgettable, featuring a surprising twist that set the story on an unexpected path. As I processed this initial shock, the narrative introduced a compelling moral dilemma. As the characters faced the consequences of their choices, I found myself reflecting on the balance between emotional intuition and rational thinking. This aspect of the book makes it an excellent choice for book clubs, as it explores complex themes such as motherhood, the ethical and legal implications of egg donation and surrogacy, and our responses to grief. I can imagine these topics sparking vibrant discussions among readers. Overall, it is an impressive debut that I would highly recommend.
