by ML Stedman. This is the story of Tom and Isabel, a couple that lives at the furthest point of Western Australia, tending a lighthouse, with no one around for miles. After trying to carry a baby to full term for years, Isabella and Tom's lives change forever when a boat carrying a dead man and a very alive baby wash up to shore. It is a day that will change their lives forever and a decision that will have consequences for everyone for the rest of their lives.
This book sounded like it could be boring at the beginning. I mean, a couple on a remote island, cut off from everyone for 6 months at a time could drag on. Not the case! The writing is beautiful and keeps the reader engaged. It was hard to put the book down, wondering what would happen next.
Be prepared to really think about how your decisions impact your life and those around you for years to come. This is a great, thought provoking book.
