Synopsis

Revisit this classic novel by New York Times Bestselling Author Brenda Novak.

Seventeen-year-old Hope Tanner found a sanctuary in the town of Enchantment, New Mexico, after scaping—pregnant and alone—from the polygamous community she grew up in, located in Superior, Utah. In Enchantment, Hope is given a second chance when the birthing clinic handles the private adoption of her baby. A baby she never stopped thinking about.
Now, ten years later, Hope is reliving history with her younger sister Faith, who is now pregnant and scaping from the same town. Hope knows her sister can find safety in the same birthing clinic she gave birth years ago, but not everyone is happy to see her again.
Parker Reynolds—the birth center’s administrator and a widowed single father—is carrying a big secret, and Hope’s presence in the town threatens the stability he has built for himself and his son. When Hope gets a job at the birthing clinic, Parker is confronted. But will the attraction he feels towards Hope be greater that the need to maintain his secret?

Goodreads review by itsallaboutbooksandmacarons on February 26, 2025

I went into this book expecting a different theme because of how it was categorized on NetGalley, but I decided to give it a chance anyway. It turned out to be a very different read than I anticipated—emotional, a little heartbreaking, and at times difficult to process. The part about the main chara......more
