Riassunto

After a health scare, Brighton-based Lou is forced to confront the fact that her time to have a baby is running out. She can't imagine a future without children, but her partner doesn't seem to feel the same way, and she's not sure whether she could go it alone. Meanwhile, up in Yorkshire, Cath is longing to start a family with her husband, Rich. No one would be happier to have a child than Rich, but Cath is infertile. Could these strangers help one another out? Combining Sarah Rayner's deft exploration of raw emotions with the joy and resilience of friendship, The Two Week Wait is a memorable, moving page-turner about two very different women, each yearning to create a family of her own. Praise for One Moment, One Morning: `A real page-turner . . . You'll want to inhale it in one breath' Easy Living `An intimate, thoughtful novel celebrating women's friendship and loyalty' Waterstone's Books Quarterly `A great, quirky must-read' Red `Delicious, big-hearted, utterly addictive . . . irresistible' Marie Claire
