Description
This unique, contemporary story gives readers a dual perspective. Sydney Shephard, a sweet-tempered, strong-natured college senior is young, in love with an exceptional man, and unexpectedly pregnant. Faced with a child she never planned for, she is forced to relay this news to her neurotic mother, relinquish her youth, and risk losing the love of her life. Then there's Grace, a daughter, who believed she was a product of this great love, grows to realize her existence is not what she assumed, and is left with profound and puzzling questions about who she really is.
Spanning generations and every imaginable emotion, One Pink Line reveals how two points of view can be dramatically at odds, and perhaps ultimately reconciled. Simultaneously deeply felt and lighthearted, One Pink Line deftly mines how the choices we make are able to alter so many lives, and how doing the right thing and living honestly can bring unexpected, hard-won happiness. It's a must-read for anyone who craves a great love story, absorbing characters, and plenty of laughs along the way.
Advance Praise
One Pink Line is a beautifully written and well-crafted story about Sydney, a senior in college, who gets pregnant by someone other than the love of her life but decides to keep her baby. Woven into Sydney's story is the story of her daughter, Grace, who wants to meet her biological father.
First-time author Dina Silver jumps right into Sydney's story beginning in college, but then flashes back to her last year of high school to highlight how Sydney meets the love of her life. Silver then begins to weave in Grace's story and then both stories weave in and out of one another. The skillful transitioning and Silver's clear, concise writing make for an engrossing read, as two stories unfold from two viewpoints and generations.
One Pink Line is a delightful read, perfect for young adults and adults alike.
