Description

It's just past ten o'clock on a cold Friday evening when Rebecca and Jack's doorbell rings. Outside, a woman holds the hand of a shivering, blue-eyed, four-year-old girl who she claims is Jack's daughter.

Rebecca's world stops. How could Jack not have known his ex-girlfriend Cara was pregnant? Becoming parents has never been part of their life plan.

But Cara needs them. Because Cara has a devastating secret that she can't tell anyone yet. Not even her daughter. A secret with the power to change all of their lives.

A secret that will ultimately mean Rebecca has to ask herself - can she find it in herself to welcome her husband's child into her home, and into her heart?

A heartbreaking and powerful emotional women's fiction novel about love, friendship and what it truly means to be a parent, perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes, Jodi Picoult and Kate Hewitt.

What readers say about My Husband's Daughter:

Oh my days, what a tear jerker! I have such a book hangover!... I can't remember the last time I read a whole book in one sitting... I have been glued to the edge of my seat! I should mention that tissues are a must! I cried more than once (I lost count) and am still wiping away the tears as I write this. The story is so heart breaking but beautifully written that some parts had me both sad but smiling at the same time... Absolutely brilliant!! - Goodreads Reviewer

I don't even know where to begin to review this absolutely gut-wrenching, beautiful story... I have never audibly sobbed or struggled to read a book through tears, but this one was tough... I cannot express the need for everyone to read this book... It is just beautiful and I think it gives a lot for people to learn from in their own lives too. - Goodreads Reviewer

Oh my goodness - what a beautiful, heart wrenching, ugly-cry-making book!... Twists and turns like you wouldn't expect from this genre, and just fantastic characterisation... it really really makes you think (and cry) - go read it!!!! - Goodreads Reviewer

Blooming hell! What did Emma Robinson do to me with this book?... The most touching story I've read for a long time, so bravo to the author... An amazing story of compassion and selflessness... This is an absolutely brilliant five star read and not one to be missed! - NetGalley Reviewer

WHAT A TEAR JERKER... Keep the tissues really close to your side throughout... Will pull hard on your heart strings... If I could give this 10 stars I definitely would. - Goodreads Reviewer

Will make you cry and laugh, feel things you have not even
