NEW RELEASE


A Part of Me - Anouska Knight (2014)

Amy, a lead designer at Cyan Architecture and Design, is in a relationship with James, another employee at her firm. After the tragic loss of their baby son Jacob, born prematurely, Amy is desperate for a child. Devastated by the death, they both turn to the adoption process and after years of trying, Amy and James' dreams of a family are about to be realised. However, just as fate seems to smile on them, Amy discovers something which literally rocks her world and causes all her dreams to be destroyed. Amy seeks refuge in her work and is given a major contract to redesign a property owned by a new client, Rohan. She finds herself being drawn into the mysterious and enigmatic world of Rohan, who is in complete contrast to her lover James. Yet Rohan is a troubled soul with a dark past of his own and just when Amy finds herself falling for him, he reveals that children are not part of his future. Amy faces a dilemma - does she live a lie and carry on in her existing relationship in order to accomplish her aspirations of a family or abandon them and all she has ever hoped for. Amy's plight is heartbreaking and compelling to read. The plot is well written and has an array of colourful characters which really bring the story to life. Amy's story is full of twists and turns and I genuinely felt empathy for her. It was a real heartfelt read and the author dealt with issues of adoption and extended families beautifully. (LP)



A Part of Me, by Anouska Knight, is about a couple who find a secret changes everything. The summary says: "After years of trying, Amy Alwood and James Coffrey have finally been accepted into the adoption process. At long last they are going to get their 'happy ever after'. Then - out of nowhere - a dark secret is revealed, which changes everything. Amy throws herself into her work to distract herself. Her new client, Rohan Bywater, is certainly keeping her on her toes. He's frustrating, lives on the edge ... and she can't stop thinking about him. He's very clear on one thing though: kids are not part of his future. Amy is torn - does she follow her heart and let the thing she wants most slip away, or carry on with a lie and live with the consequences?" A Part of Me is out in July 2014.
