As I saw my new-born baby’s face for the first time I tried desperately to capture her face in my mind—to stamp it onto my eyelids. As she was taken from me I knew I might never see my daughter again.
37 years later…
‘You were adopted’. Three short words and Sabina’s life fractures. There would forever be a Before those words, and an After.
Pregnant with her own child, Sabina can’t understand how a mother could abandon her daughter, or why her parents have kept the past a secret.
Determined to find the woman who gave her away, what she discovers will change everything, not just for Sabina, but for the women who have loved her all these years.
From the bestselling author of Me Without You comes another touching, beautifully told story about the pain of separation and the enduring strength of love.

‘This book got under my skin and I think it'd be the same for many other people - You don't need to like romance books, you just need to want to read books that are about people, that have simple but incredibly important stories.’ Petit Moi
‘I fell in love with this amazing book after the first sentence and would read it all over again. A wonderful mixture of emotions, real love, secrets, laughter and sadness. If you want a gripping and touching story, here it is, read it now!’ Sky’s Book Corner
‘What a heartbreaking, tearful, emotional read with scenes that are traumatising, hilarious and in many more scenes inspiring. A story about how love changes the characters- breaks hearts and at the same time restores faith.’ Talking Books Blog
‘Rimmer’s triumph with this novel are her two main characters – they’re both very well written and you can’t help but feel a range of emotions for them both. At times you want to throttle them and with the turn of a page you want to cry for them. There are so many feelings in this little novel that at times it’s almost overwhelming.’ Judging Covers
