Spotlight: Swimming Home by Ruth Mancini @RuthMancini1
Today I am spotlighting Ruth Mancini’s second book, Swimming Home. I reviewed her first book, Swimming Upstream, last year.
Synopsis
Lizzie’s life hasn’t exactly gone to plan. Eighteen years ago, she made the difficult decision to leave London for Paris to escape her best friend’s fiancé, the man who’d attacked her and turned her world upside down. Secure in the belief that she and her daughter, Helena, are now safe from harm, Lizzie contemplates her future. But is the nightmare really over?
When the captivating Sky Donoghue comes along, pulling Helena into dangerous waters, Lizzie’s strength and judgement are put to the test. Just how far should she go to save her daughter? How far will she go to save herself?
