NEW RELEASE
In the Mirror - Kaira Rouda (2014)
Jennifer had it all - a loving family, two beautiful children and her own business until she started feeling ill after her second child and discovered she had cancer. The story takes place in Shady Cove, a cancer treatment centre, and shows how Jennifer feels she has lost everything and has become distant from her family. Then her first love Alex turns up and he gives Jennifer a small inkling of hope, lust and revitalisation. I was wondering whether husband Henry was distant from Jennifer because he was having an affair with the nanny but that topic never came up and I loved her son Hank - he was such a cutie. In The Mirror is not only a story about cancer, it is also a romance with suspense as we discover that sometimes our fantasies aren't all that they are cracked up to be and if we aren't careful our decisions can lead to danger. If you are wanting a contemporary romance with a touch of edginess and don't mind the emotional theme, then you will love In the Mirror as much as I did. (PP)
Kaira Rouda's In The Mirror asks what choices would you make if you knew you may die soon? The summary says: "When determined mother and entrepreneur Jennifer Benson is diagnosed with cancer, she enters an experimental treatment facility to tackle her death sentence the same way she's tackled her life - head on. But while she's busy fighting for a cure, running her business, planning a party, staying connected to her kids and trying to keep her sanity, she ignores her own intuition and warnings from others and reignites an old relationship best left behind. If you knew you might die, what choices would you make? How would it affect your marriage? How would you live each day? How many warnings would you ignore? And how would you say no to the one that got away?"
