Book Spotlight: One Moment, One Morning by Sarah Rayner & Giveaway

by

Good day everyone!  I’ve got a great book to spotlight for you today called One Moment, One Morning by Sarah Rayner which just released in December.  I haven’t gotten my copy yet so I couldn’t have my review for you but I hope to in the next little while because this most definitely sounds like a book I’m really going to like.  In the meantime I have to say how much I love this cover – isn’t it pretty?  For now I’m going to tell you a bit about the book and the author and be sure to check out the great giveaway at the end of the post for your own chance at a copy of this novel!

 

About One Moment, One Morning by Sarah Rayner

Sometimes, one moment is all it takes to change a life forever.

The Brighton to London line. The 07:44 train. Carriages packed with commuters. One woman occupies her time observing the people around her. Opposite, a girl puts on her make-up. Across the aisle, a husband strokes his wife’s hand. Further along, another woman flicks through a glossy magazine. Then, abruptly, everything changes. A man collapses, the train is stopped, an ambulance called. And for three passengers that particular morning, life will never be the same again.

There’s Lou, in an adjacent seat, who witnesses events first hand. Anna, who’s sitting further up the train, impatient to get to work. And Karen, the man’s wife.

Telling the story of the week following that fateful train journey, One Moment, One Morning is a stunning novel about love and loss, secrets and lies, family and – above all – friendship. Memorable and moving, gripping the reader from the very first page, it’s a stark reminder that sometimes, one moment is all it takes to shatter everything. Yet it also reminds us that somehow, despite it all, life can and does go on.

About Sarah Rayner

 

Sarah Rayner was born in London. She spent her childhood in Richmond, Surrey, then became a punk, spiked her hair and went to Leeds University to study English and get chilblains. She returned to London in the late ’80s, flattened her hair and worked in fashion PR for a bit, before her boss told her she was better at writing than schmoozing clients, and suggested she become an advertising copywriter.
