Celine’s life is spiralling out of control. She’s in danger of losing the beloved equestrian farm that was her childhood home. Her distant husband, Eric, is devoting a suspicious amount of time to a stunning new colleague. Then her young son, Brian, receives a devastating cancer diagnosis. As her life falls apart, she faces an impossible fight
Felicity has uprooted her career and her teenage son, Justin, to get closer to Eric. She’s tired of keeping his secrets—that Eric’s frequent “business trips” have been time spent with her and Justin. Felicity is determined to get her happily ever after, even if it means confronting Celine at a delicate time.
But when Brian’s prognosis worsens, and a transplant from Justin becomes his best chance at survival, Felicity must make a wrenching decision about her son’s well-being—and Celine must accept that the “other woman” is her only hope.
In another life Celine and Felicity might have been friends. Can they put aside the pain between them to do what’s best for their families—and their own futures?

I loved The Sun’s Shadow. This is my first time reading the author so I didn’t know what to expect. After reading just a few pages, I was hooked. I was part of Celine’s life, rooting for her and her family as life dealt them blow after blow. I liked the fact the chapters alternate between the viewpoint of different characters so you get to see events unfold from different angles. This was a gripping read that I didn’t want to put down. I loved this book and would recommend it.
5/5
