An engaging and thoroughly satisfying read.” —Emily Carpenter, author of Every Single Secret

“With luminous prose and an artfully crafted storyline, Nicole Meier’s new novel is not to be missed. The Girl Made of Clay is a moving examination of the limits of familial obligations—and the unexpected rewards of opening up your heart to someone who may not deserve it.” —Camille Pagán, bestselling author of Woman Last Seen in Her Thirties

“With Girl Made of Clay, Nicole Meier has created a moving story of a woman’s journey from anger to forgiveness, as she is forced to confront the mysterious father who abandoned her when she was a child and the husband who is spending far too much time away from home. Filled with characters you won’t be able to forget, this is an inspiring tale of a woman facing the past and learning what it means to love.” —Maddie Dawson, author of Matchmaking for Beginners

“Rich and vibrant, The Girl Made of Clay is a heartfelt story about family, forgiveness, and second chances.
