Four different women are brought together by life circumstances, and a wedding dress.

When serious illness strikes Paige’s mum, she’s determined to wear her mother’s 80s wedding dress at her upcoming nuptials, so she takes to tracking it down, as her mum had donated it to charity. Rachel, Paige’s mum, has a huge secret that she has kept from her loving husband, Hugh, and Paige.

Another character is Josie, who at thirty-five is feeling depressed about her multiple miscarriages and is worried her marriage to Nick won't survive.

Clara is a nurse and also a counsellor of people who dealt with miscarriages.

The four women’s journeys include illness, miscarriages, divorce, adoption, regrets and starting over, to name just a few of the themes. I liked all the female characters. I did think that some of the men were a little too good to be true.

While it did take me a little bit of time to get my head straight about who was who, once I got better acquainted to the multiple characters, I was flying.

Bestselling author Rachel Johns has written another life lit novel filled with relatable characters whose stories are gripping and quite moving at times.
