I’ve had this book on my list forever. With me being laid up a bit I thought I’d snuggle down to read it. Seemed like a heartfelt book with warming overtures. I was right.

To be a strong women in your family who everyone relies on to be their rock is hard. It’s something you do, because you need to, you have to. You manage and you cope.
Not saying you don’t have your down days.

Being in that kind of position can put your health, your wellbeing in jeopardy, I’m talking from experience. Yes I know this is fiction but I felt joined to this bit.

Then health deteriorates.

In this story we find that to happen and then the son with his problems has to step up.

This is a heartwarming and very well written book.

I don’t know why this book went down the rabbit whole, I think I like this authors writing and definitely will be seeking out more from her.

Elle has been the glue holding her family together, but when she suffers a massive heart attack, her husband Felix must step in to take care of their special needs son, Henry. A wonderful, touching family drama of one father’s struggle to accept his son while overcoming his own personal flaws and limitations. I especially enjoyed Henry’s character development and his journey to independence.
