Pretending to Dance
by Diane Chamberlain
I just love Diane Chamberlain and each new book she writes just confirms that ! Pretending To Dance is a beautiful story that dances back and forth from Molly's past she's left behind to the life she now leads. Molly and her husband Aiden are trying hard to adopt a child through open adoption but Molly is holding back on the truth of her childhood and this may be what's keeping her from opening herself up totally to their chance of adoption. As she weaves the story of a wonderful childhood in the mountains of NC to a doting and loving father who suffers from MS, the mother who raised her and the woman who birthed her to the tragic ending that shut down her life causing her to turn her back on everyone. A heart wrenching story about the complexities of families, the pain of debilitating illness and the love that can suffer and flourish at the same time. Chamberlain as always writes with such humananity and lifelike characters that you miss them when you put the book down. A great story !
