About this listen
An emotional and thought-provoking audiobook about love, loss and friendship, perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult.
Nova Kumalisi would do anything for her closest friend, Mal Wacken. She owes him her life. So, when he asked her to be the surrogate mother for him and his wife, in spite of her fears about how it would alter their friendship, Nova agreed.
Eight years later, Nova is bringing up their son alone, and she and Mal don't speak. Months into the pregnancy, Mal's wife changed her mind about the surrogacy agreement. Already suspicious of how close Nova and Mal were, Stephanie realised her strained marriage was in serious trouble when she found a text from her husband to Nova, saying, 'Goodnight, Beautiful'. She asked Mal to cut all ties with his closest friend and unborn child.
Now, seven-year-old Leo is critically ill and Nova, despite her anger and hurt, wants Mal to have the chance to know his son before it's too late. Will it take a tragedy to remind them how much they mean to each other?

Emotionally explosive story
Katherine Koomson is one of the authors that creates very clear character and you almost feel comfortable being in their world and learning about very painful and uncomfortable topics instead.
It has a very important truth from Stephanie, that took me by surprise.
The whole story of all three main characters especially Nova feels tragic. Despite that she manages to bring a second breath into her life :)

Emotional read
I couldn’t stop listening to this book. My heart immediately went to Nova after everything, I was left sobbing for her. Brilliant book would love for there to be a part 2. I’ve always loved reading DK’s books but this one tops them.
