Heart Like Mine: A Novel

Heart Like Mine: A Novel

From rising star Amy Hatvany, an engrossing new novel about a woman whose life is turned upside down when the man she's engaged to suddenly becomes a full-time father to the children from his previous marriage.

Thirty-six-year-old Grace McAllister never longed for children. But when she meets Victor Hansen, a handsome, charismatic divorced restaurateur who is father to Max and Ava, Grace decides that, for the right man, she could learn to be an excellent part-time stepmom. After all, the kids live with their mother, Kelli. How hard could it be?

At thirteen, Ava Hansen is mature beyond her years. Since her parentsâ€™ divorce, she has been taking care of her emotionally unstable mother and her little brotherâ€”she pays the bills, does the laundry, and never complains because she loves her mama more than anyone. And while her fatherâ€™s new girlfriend is nice enough, Ava still holds out hope that her parents will get back together and that theyâ€™ll be a family again. But only days after Victor and Grace get engaged, Kelli dies suddenly under mysterious circumstancesâ€”and soon, Grace and Ava discover that there was much more to Kelliâ€™s life than either ever knew.

Narrated by Grace and Ava in the present with flashbacks into Kelliâ€™s troubled past, Heart Like Mine is a poignant, hopeful portrait of womanhood, love, and the challenges and joys of family life.
