When Janine and Dougie fell in love they thought it would be for ever.
Fifteen years later their relationship is well and truly over, their daughter Stevie their one remaining connection.
Stevie is on the cusp of adulthood. At sixteen, she’s not quite a child, but not quite grown up: a dangerous age. But it’s only during a birthday celebration in Spain, when she gets too close to one of Dougie’s best friends, that her parents realise just how dangerous.
With friendships shattered and trusts betrayed, Janine and Dougie – brought together in Stevie’s moment of crisis – know they must see beyond the past if they’re to secure their daughter’s future. But even with such a lot at stake, can a relationship with so many complications ever have a future.
Perfect for fans of Joanna Trollope and Anita Shreve, Amanda Brookfield’s The Love Child is a profoundly moving story about the redeeming power of love.
What readers are saying about Amanda Brookfield:
‘Excellent characterisation, well written and pretty absorbing. This book has got me over my reading slump. I’m now off to buy more of her books. Highly recommend it you want a gentle read about family, friendship and finding yourself. Really enjoyed reading about all of the characters.’
‘I could read it again, I read it so fast, I couldn’t put it down.** Very well written**. I will definitely read more from this author in the future.’
‘Brilliant book – just when I thought I knew what was going to happen, another twist popped up – had me picking it up whenever I had the chance.’
‘A great story, great characters, vivid, immediate, so ‘real’, and such compassion. Every bit a page turner as Brookfield so gets you into her people. If you like reading really well written real-life novels about your relationships, try this.’
Praise for Amanda Brookfield:
‘An engaging, emotionally-charged and intriguing story’ Michelle Gorman
‘No one gets to the heart of human relationships quite so perceptively as Brookfield.’ The Mirror
‘Unputdownable. Perceptive. Poignant. I loved it.’ bestselling author Patricia Scanlan on Before I Knew You
‘If Joanna Trollope is the queen of the Aga Saga, then Amanda Brookfield must be a strong contender for princess.’ Oxford Times
From the Publisher
Hello there,
Thank you so much for visiting my books on Amazon. I love writing about the dramas that we all face in life and our constant search to find love and happiness.
My stories are set in England, but often include glamorous locations abroad. They are all about relationships within families, and between friends and lovers, showing what happens when things go unexpectedly wrong (or right) as they so often do! My characters have ups and downs, sometimes experiencing real blows, but I am both a romantic and an optimist so it gives me such joy to find that positive happy ending – keeping you guessing as I go!
For me, reading a good book is like discovering a new best friend. My biggest hope is that my stories might feel like that for you.
Happy reading!
