My Rating: 4 Stars
Having read UK author, Sarah Rayner for the first time with her latest book, “The Other Half”, (I loved); wanted to read some of her earlier books – as the initial attraction to “One Moment, One Morning.”
The title is true to its word, happened in one moment, one morning, a horrible tragedy, involving three women on a train to London when woman’s partner has a fatal heart attack and dies. Karen, the widow is left to deal with her loss and care for her young children. Anna (Karen’s best friend), is there to support her, and Lou (a witness) is not facing some facts about her own personal life.
As with “The Other Half”, “One Moment, One Morning” does not disappoint, as the talented author has a way of reaching down to the heart to bring life and loss to her characters with emotion and sensitivity. She has a way of captivating her readers from the first page to the end.
I highly recommend to any woman interested in loss, love, and friendship and being true to oneself. A strong theme to holding on to life, and no matter our loss, we can find the courage to move on through the support of friends and people who come into our lives through fate, at just the right time.
