Heart of the Matter
From the New York Times bestselling author of LOVE THE ONE YOU'RE WITH comes an emotional, thought-provoking novel about the impossible dilemmas two mothers face.
As the wife of a leading paediatric plastic surgeon, Tessa Russo can't help but contemplate how fragile life can be. Tessa knows how lucky she is, still madly in love with her husband after seven years, with two beautiful children. Yet beneath the perfect facade, the cracks are beginning to show...
Valerie Anderson takes nothing for granted. But with one phone call, her world is turned upside down forever. As a single mother, she was always protective of her son Charlie and will live to regret how one seemingly insignificant decision leads to a terrible accident - one that will leave Charlie forever scarred. It is only when Nick Russo, Charlie's surgeon, enters their lives, that Valerie finally dares to hope again.
As the lives of two very different women dramatically intersect, they are forced to question everything they hold dear and face a future that neither one had ever envisaged.
