'A RIVETING READ' GOOD HOUSEKEEPING

'BRILLIANTLY PACY' DAILY MAIL

What if love's not enough?

For Londoner Eloise Hamilton, it is a momentous day when she reluctantly agrees to uproot to Dartmouth, leaving behind her perfect world so her husband can return to his. At least her mother-in-law Margaret will welcome her with open arms, and she can rely on best friend Sara to be her lifeline to London.

But Eloise is thrust into unexpected turmoil when it's revealed that Margaret is showing signs of dementia and Sara's intense longing for a family threatens to overwhelm her.

While she's dreaming up extreme ways to help those she loves, Eloise's world implodes with the strain of being responsible for all around her. When a life-changing secret is revealed, someone is bound to be overlooked. And the damage might be irreparable...

Includes a preview of The Stranger In My Home, out now.

Beautifully written, love, friendship, deception,& betrayal

Reviewed in France 🇫🇷 on 27 August 2012

I really enjoyed, it's a lovely book with beautifully detailed descriptions of the characters & their lives. Vivid & heartbreaking story line with Alzheimers and infertility without the melodramatic side of it.
Dartmouth was described so vividly you feel that you have lived there. Eloise & Margaret were my favourite characters they wove you in without you noticing it. A heartbreaking story of love, illness, friendship, deception & betayal.

WHATEVER IT TAKES

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 18 September 2014

Eloise, loving wife and mother to three daughters agrees to fulfil her husband Mark's wish to leave her beloved London and move to Dartmouth. Her mother-in-law Margaret and father-in-law Ray live nearby and are very excited to have them all so close.However Margaret's health is failing to dementia, making it very challenging for all the family. Eloise is also faced with leaving her best friend Sara,they have shared so much together, and Eloise has always been so supportive to her, for Sara has been trying for such a long time to have a child and it is eating her up inside.
Shortly after moving Eloise finds herself in the position of trying to keep everyone happy,as circumstances prevailing their lives have become somewhat chaotic.
I have to say that in my opinion both Eloise and Sara have characters that are quite if not very hard to believe in!
A good read though,and I thought that Margaret's decline was sensitively told.

Reasonably new to Adele Parkes books I loved this novel so, so much.
I thought the sensitivity with which the Alzheimer’s was played out was beautiful & so very moving.
Highly recommend

Loved it, apart from the last chapter

Immediately got drawn into this story, its easy for us busy Mums to identify with the main character. The book also offered a great insight to the heartship of her friend and the illness of her Mother-in-Law. I loved this book but didn't like the end for personal reasons (reminded me of a nasty incident in my own life) but I'm sure this may not be a problem for other readers.

A good read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 23 March 2013

Enjoyed reading this and whizzed through it at a rapid pace, always a good sign. Adele Parks is very good at describing the emotional situation of her characters. She tackles some tricky issues in this book, fertility, motherhood, adoption, marriage and betrayal and friendship. I did enjoy the book, however I found it difficult to warm to the character of Eloise as she was just too perfect.
