Synopsis

After 40 years of marriage, Olivia's husband unexpectedly passes away. But when Ben’s will reveals a life-altering secret, she suffers a blow no widow should ever experience.

Olivia learns that she gave birth to a baby who later died in the nursery. Instead of telling his wife what happened, Ben switched the child with another. And as if that’s not enough, Ben’s will doesn’t reveal which of their five sons is truly not hers.

Olivia visits each of her sons to share a final connection before facing the truth that will change their family, and discovers that each of them has been harboring a painful secret, just like their father. But will the secrets destroy their family, or bring them closer together?

★★★★★ - "The plot is well-thought out and intricately and methodically crafted. The execution is great, especially the last several chapters are stunningly beautiful. An astounding read."

★★★★★ - "A wonderful novel that I highly recommend to anyone."

About this title

About the Author

Writing has been a part of my life as much as my heart, mymind, and my body. I decided to pursue my passion by dusting off the creativityinside my head and drafting outlines for several novels. I suddenly realized Iwas back in my element, growing happier and more excited with life each day.When I completed the first book, WatchingGlass Shatter, I knew I'd stumbled upon my passion again, suddenly dreamingup characters, plots, and settings all day long. I chose my second novel, Father Figure, through a poll on my blogwhere I let everyone vote for their favorite plot and character summaries. Mygoal in writing is to connect with readers who want to be part of great storiesand who enjoy interacting with authors. To get a strong picture of who I am,check out my author website or my blog where the 365 Daily Challenge reveals something about my personality everyday. It's full of humor and eccentricity, sharing connections with everyone Ifollow, all in the hope of building a network of friends across the world.
