The Forever Gift

De: Brooke Harris

Narrado por: Aoife McMahon, Grainne Brookfield, Kate O'Rourke

My hands are shaking as my fingers curl around the small, neatly wrapped box. There’s a tag dangling from the centre of the red bow which says 'Love from Kayla' in her beautiful, swirly handwriting. I read over the three words countless times, tracing the letters with my fingertip. How is this possible?

Heather’s beloved daughter, Kayla, is her world. She is 15, a brilliant basketball player and a fierce friend. Heather and Kayla have always had a special relationship. For so many years it was just the two of them, watching Friends, baking cupcakes and laughing together. But now Kayla knows her time is short, and she wants to give something back to the mother she loves more than anyone else in the world. A gift that will change Heather’s life.

With just a handful of days left, Kayla will need help from everyone around her to make this last surprise happen. Along the way, the people whose lives have been touched by Kayla’s light will be changed by her loss and by her plan for Heather. And as Heather’s whole world threatens to fall apart, could Kayla’s forever gift be the key to piecing her life back together?

An absolutely heartbreaking and ultimately uplifting novel about motherhood, family and how far we go to protect those we love. Perfect for fans of Diane Chamberlain, Jill Childs and Kerry Fisher.

Storyline

Just all around great, be prepared to cry if you plan to listen. Well if you have empathy that is.

Deestatingly. Eeautiful

I knew what was coming and I still cried. It will make you hug your kids a little bit closer, and realize that even the most brief life can touch millions of people. Read it, you won’t regret it.

Wonderful story but…

This was a wonderful story but the voices of some of the characters were irritating especially the little girls voice. I almost stop listening and would have opted to read my kindle instead.

A Lovely Book

I don’t even know what to say. It’s a lovely book, that I listened to in audio form. Shout out to Aoife McMann in narration, a favorite of mine. It flows well and hits you with a range of emotions. You may guess the ending in short time, but it still captures your attention throughout. An easy read (or listen).
